Stamped Concrete in Dallas–Fort Worth

Stamped Concrete: questions, answered

• How much does stamped concrete cost in Dallas-Fort Worth?

  Stamped concrete in DFW typically runs $12 to $22 per square foot installed, depending on the pattern, number of colors, and site prep required. A standard 400 sq ft stamped patio usually lands between $5,000 and $8,500. Plain broom-finish concrete runs $7-$11 per square foot. Structure1 provides free itemized estimates so you can compare finishes side by side.

• What stamped concrete patterns and colors do you offer?

  We install the most popular DFW patterns — ashlar slate, random stone, wood plank, herringbone brick, and cobblestone — in integral and antiqued color combinations that complement Texas home exteriors. During your estimate we bring pattern samples and photos of local installs so you can see exactly how a finish looks on a real project.

• Is stamped concrete better than pavers?

  Stamped concrete is a single reinforced slab, so there are no joints for weeds or shifting, and it costs less per square foot than most paver installs. Pavers can be lifted and reset individually. On North Texas clay soil, a properly reinforced slab with control joints is the more stable choice for patios and pool surrounds.

• How often does stamped concrete need to be sealed?

  We seal every stamped slab after it cures. Resealing every 2-3 years keeps color depth and protects against stains and UV fading. It is a one-day job we can schedule for you.

• Will my concrete crack?

  All concrete develops hairline cracks as it cures — the goal is controlling where. We cut control joints on a proper grid so movement happens at the joints instead of across the surface, use reinforcement suited to the slab's use, and pour at the right thickness over compacted base. Our 2-year workmanship warranty covers structural failures, and correctly installed slabs last 30+ years in DFW.
