Getting the most from a small budget
If you're fixing up a house, you don't need to stamp everything. Staining an old slab costs a fraction of a new one, and it can look great with a good cleaning. A plain patio can be poured now and stamped or overlaid later. See concrete staining for prices.
Do the structural jobs first. Sewer lines, foundation drains and porch footings all come before decorative work, as they can mean digging up whatever is on top.
Old porches are the classic local project. Large concrete porches on these homes can have rusted steel, hollow fill and worn edges. Tap the slab with a hammer, and listen for hollow spots. If it's sound, an overlay works well. If it isn't, it's better to rebuild. Permits go through the borough, and we'll confirm what's needed for work at the front of the house. New owners should check the deed and survey as well, as old fences and walks don't always sit on the line.
