Concrete projects to get the most out of your Lower Mainland backyard this summer

If the first thing that comes to mind about your backyard is having to mow the grass, it is time for an upgrade. There are several exciting concrete projects that will  turn your yard into a functional extension of your home. It’s like having an open-air room where you and your family can cook, dine, entertain and relax. If you’re curious about the different ways concrete can revitalize and upgrade your yard, here are just a few ideas.

Tables & furniture: technology has advanced to the point where we create custom furniture that showcases a unique style or matches existing decor. Concrete furniture is surprisingly lightweight, durable and customizable. It is used to mimic rock, stone and wood; can be coloured, textured, and bent into soft curves and wavy forms. Dining tables, end tables, coffee tables, chairs and benches are popular choices.

Outdoor Kitchen: Enjoy endless summer BBQs and fall cook-outs with an outdoor kitchen. The combination of style and function protects your equipment from the elements and creates an inviting, comfortable space to cook and serve your favourite meals.

Stamped concrete patios: The design possibilities are endless for customizing a concrete patio. Choose colours, textures and shape. Concrete can be made to look like wood, stone, brick, rock, marble and more. Stamped patios create an affordable, beautiful surface that will last year after year.

The best part about stamped concrete patios, concrete furniture and outdoor kitchens is their beauty, longevity, and how easy they are to care for. There’s no need to break them down at the end of the season and find somewhere to store them. You won’t need to replace them after a few years because of decay or mould.
