A standard concrete patio installation typically takes 3-5 days from start to finish, including site preparation, forming, pouring, and finishing. Decorative options like stamped or stained concrete may add 1-2 additional days. Curing time is typically 7 days before light use and 28 days for full strength.

Stamped concrete is a decorative concrete technique where patterns are pressed into freshly poured concrete to mimic the appearance of brick, stone, slate, tile, or wood. Combined with integral color and release agents, stamped concrete delivers the look of premium materials at a fraction of the cost. YNL Concrete specializes in high-end stamped concrete designs.

To maintain your concrete surfaces in South Florida: seal your concrete every 2-3 years to protect against UV and moisture, clean regularly with mild soap and water, avoid harsh chemical deicers (though rarely needed in Florida), address cracks early before they spread, and avoid parking heavy equipment in the same spot repeatedly. YNL Concrete offers maintenance guidance with every project.

We do not pour concrete during active rainfall as it can damage the surface finish and weaken the mix. Our team monitors weather closely and schedules pours accordingly. In South Florida's rainy season, we plan around afternoon storms and can often pour in the morning hours. We'll always communicate scheduling changes proactively.

Epoxy floor coating is a durable, chemical-resistant finish applied over concrete floors. It creates a smooth, glossy surface that resists stains, chemicals, and abrasion. Popular for garage floors, warehouses, showrooms, and commercial spaces. YNL Concrete installs commercial-grade epoxy systems with multiple color and flake options.

Stamped concrete typically costs 30-50% more than standard concrete, ranging from $12 to $25+ per square foot depending on the pattern complexity and color options chosen. However, compared to natural stone or pavers, stamped concrete offers significant savings — often 50-70% less — while achieving a similar look. YNL Concrete specializes in high-end stamped concrete at competitive prices.
