Concrete Patio Installation in Monterey County
Outdoor Living Spaces Built Right.
A well-built patio extends your living space outdoors and adds real value to your property. Nexgen Paving Specialists has been installing concrete patios throughout Monterey County for over a decade, creating outdoor spaces that hold up to weather, traffic, and time.
We approach every patio with the same attention we’d give our own property—proper base prep, correct drainage slopes, and finishes that look great while lasting decades.
Residential Patio Installation
We build backyard entertainment areas, side yard seating spaces, front entry courtyards, and pool surrounds throughout Monterey County. Whether you want a simple 12×12 seating area or a large custom patio for outdoor dining and entertaining, we start by understanding how you’ll use the space.
That drives everything else—the size, layout, finish options, and details that make your patio work for your family.
Our Patio Installation Process
- Site Planning and Excavation – We stake out the patio location so you can see the exact size and placement, then excavate to proper depth and remove any roots or unstable soil. Our owner stays involved from day one, making sure the plan works for your property.
- Base Preparation and Compaction – We install 4-6 inches of compacted aggregate base, creating a stable foundation that prevents settling and cracking down the road. Shortcuts here show up later—we don’t take them.
- Forming, Reinforcement, and Drainage – Forms create clean edges at the right elevations. We slope the patio 1/4 inch per foot away from your house for drainage, place wire mesh or rebar to control cracking, and install expansion joints where the patio meets structures. These details matter years from now when other patios are cracking and settling.
- Concrete Pour and Finish – We pour 4-inch thick concrete, work it to eliminate voids, and finish the surface based on your preference. Options range from smooth trowel finishes to textured broom finishes, exposed aggregate, stamped patterns, or colored concrete. The finish affects both appearance and traction.
Why Concrete Works
Concrete patios last 25-30 years with minimal maintenance, provide stable surfaces for furniture and equipment, work with any design style, and can be finished plain or decorative depending on your budget. You’re building something that performs reliably for decades while handling whatever Monterey weather and your family throw at it.
