Common questions
Can you pour a porch slab against the house?
Yes. We plan flashing, drainage and the connection to the foundation so water stays out. We explain how it will be done before work begins.
Can a porch slab be stamped?
Yes. Stamped and colored finishes work well on porches, and we show samples first.
