Patios Designed for Outdoor Use and Durability

Pour Boys Concrete LLC pours custom concrete patios for residential properties throughout Abilene.

Your backyard in Abilene becomes more functional when you have a level, durable surface for grilling, seating, and outdoor gatherings that does not turn into mud when it rains or crack under the summer sun. Pour Boys Concrete LLC pours concrete patios sized and shaped to fit your yard and usage, with proper slope for drainage and finish options that range from simple broom texture to decorative styles that add visual interest to your outdoor space.

Patio installation begins with measuring the area and discussing layout, size, and finish preferences. The crew excavates to the required depth, grades the subgrade for drainage away from your home, and compacts the base to prevent settling. Forms are staked to define the edges, and concrete is poured, leveled, and finished with the texture or pattern you selected. The surface is designed to handle foot traffic, furniture weight, and weather exposure for years without requiring replacement.

If you want to add a patio to your Abilene property or replace one that has cracked or settled, get in touch with Pour Boys Concrete LLC to discuss sizing, layout, and finish options.

What the Installation Process Looks Like

The crew arrives at your Abilene home with the tools needed to excavate, level, and compact the area where your patio will be poured. Soil is removed to a depth of several inches, and the subgrade is graded to slope gently away from the house to prevent water from pooling or draining toward the foundation.

Once the base is prepared, forms are installed along the perimeter and staked securely to hold their position during the pour. Concrete is delivered and spread evenly across the prepared area, then leveled with a screed and floated smooth. The finish is applied while the concrete is still workable, whether that means running a broom across the surface for traction or stamping a decorative pattern into the slab. After finishing, the concrete cures for several days before the forms are removed and the patio is ready for use.

You will have a clean, level outdoor surface that drains correctly and holds up to furniture, foot traffic, and weather without cracking or sinking into soft ground. The crew does not install overhead structures or landscaping, but can coordinate timing if other work is planned for your backyard.

A few details can make the decision easier

Homeowners in Abilene often ask about finish options, size recommendations, and how long they need to wait before placing furniture on a new patio. Below are answers to the most common questions about concrete patio installation.

What finish options are available for a concrete patio?
You can choose a standard broom finish for traction, a smooth trowel finish for a cleaner look, or decorative options such as stamping or staining. Pour Boys Concrete LLC will walk you through the options during your consultation.
How thick should a patio be?
Most residential patios are poured at four inches thick, which provides enough strength for foot traffic and patio furniture. Thicker pours are not typically needed unless you plan to park vehicles or place heavy equipment on the surface.
How long before I can use the patio after it is poured?
You can walk on the patio lightly after 24 to 48 hours, but you should wait at least seven days before placing furniture or hosting gatherings. Full curing takes around 28 days, but normal use is safe after the first week.
What size patio should I pour for my backyard?
Patio size depends on how you plan to use the space and how much room you have available. A typical patio for seating and a grill is around 12 by 12 feet, but the crew can customize the size and shape to fit your yard and needs.
What happens if the patio cracks later?
Proper base preparation and reinforcement reduce the risk of cracking significantly. If cracks do appear due to settling or temperature stress, Pour Boys Concrete LLC can assess the damage and recommend repair or sealing options.
