Poured concrete makes a wonderful backyard patio and it is easier to success than you might think. It helps transform your backyard into a durable, attractive, and long-lasting outdoor living space.
There are many types of patio materials but concrete patios and paths offer the most practical yet attractive options for your patio.
Compared to other patio materials, concrete stands out as one of the most practical and cost-effective options available. It can be customised with a wide range of finishes, colours, and textures to suit your home's style, from modern to classic.
Concrete patios and pathways are also low maintenance and designed to withstand changing weather conditions over time.

Every finish has its own character, texture, and ideal use case. We'll walk you through the options and help you choose what suits your home, your budget, and how you'll use the space.
Decorative
Stamped & Patterned
Concrete is pressed with moulds while still wet to create the look of tiles, cobblestones, slate, or brick — at a fraction of the cost and with far greater durability than the real thing.
Bold Colour
Coloured Concrete
Iron oxide pigments are added to the mix before pouring, giving you a consistent, through-colour result. Earthy tones, warm greys, charcoal, terracotta — we work with a full palette to suit your home's style.
Decorative
Plain Brushed
A broom-textured finish that's clean, practical, and timeless. It's the most affordable option and works beautifully for paths, driveways, and patios where the surrounding landscaping does the talking.
How We Work
Tauranga Patio Installation Process
Our Patio Process
- 01
Site Assessment
We visit your property to understand the space, check drainage, assess the existing ground, and discuss layout and finish options with you in person.
- 02
Final Price Agreement
We'll provide a clear layout suggestion and a written, fixed-price quote. No vague estimates — you know exactly what you're getting and what it costs.
- 03
Excavation and Base
We excavate to the right depth and compact a crushed gravel sub-base. This is the foundation that prevents cracking, settlement, and drainage problems.
- 04
Forming Steel
Timber forms are set to the correct level and slope. Steel reinforcement mesh is laid to add tensile strength and prevent cracking under load or movement.
- 05
Pour and Finish
We apply curing compound or blankets and advise on the 7-day light-use and 28-day full-cure timeline. We leave your site clean and talk you through aftercare.

Curing and Handover

Our Difference
Design & Pour All in One.
Most concreters will pour what you ask them to. We go further — helping you figure out exactly what to ask for in the first place.
Our all-in-one service means you're never left coordinating between a designer and a contractor. We bridge that gap, saving you time and making sure the final result actually matches what you had in mind.

Why It Matters
No Guesswork No Surprise
Patios that don't work usually fail at the planning stage — the wrong size, poor drainage, a finish that looks different in sunlight, or a layout that doesn't match how people actually move through the space.
Because we handle design and installation together, we catch these issues before the concrete goes down, not after. We've poured hundreds of outdoor slabs across Tauranga and we know what works — and what looks good in photos but fails in real life.
The result? A patio that feels like it was always meant to be there. Proportioned correctly, draining properly, finished beautifully — and built to handle everything the Bay of Plenty weather throws at it for years to come.
