Concrete Patio Installation in Birmingham, MI

Clean lines and tight corners for a Birmingham backyard.

Birmingham's walkable neighborhoods are full of older homes on tight lots, and the backyards are often small and close to the neighbors. People here expect a patio to look finished: straight edges, joints that line up with the house, steps that match. A new concrete patio in Birmingham is as much about detailing as it is about square footage.

Patio Installation in Birmingham

A Birmingham patio, built from the ground up

Space is tight, so we plan access first. Equipment has to fit through a side yard or a gate, and sometimes concrete goes in by pump line from the street. The ground is rolling glacial till that varies within a few feet, so we dig out, proof-roll the subgrade, replace soft spots and compact a 21AA base in lifts. The slope runs away from the house.

On a small lot, every foot counts. We'll size the patio around the table, the grill and a path to the garage, and we'll line up control joints with doors and windows so the slab looks planned. Decorative finishes are common in Birmingham: stamped stone, colored borders, exposed aggregate, smooth bands framing a broom center.

Rolling glacial till under Birmingham

The hills of southern Oakland County, a mix of dense clay with pockets of sand and stone left by retreating glaciers.

Proof-roll the subgrade to find soft spots, replace them, build a thicker compacted base, and plan the grade so runoff is carried around the slab.
