CONCRETE & STORM SHELTERS
Concrete patios and walkways
Create a patio or walking route with elevations and runoff planned before the concrete finish. Layout, joints and surface texture should support the way people move and use the outdoor area.
START WITH THE DETAILS
What goes into
the work.
Measure length, width and thickness separately. Note base, access and excavation. Shelter dimensions and anchoring follow the selected product and engineered requirements.
Typical scope to confirm
- Lay out the footprint and drainage elevations
- Prepare the specified base and forms
- Place concrete with the planned reinforcement and joints
- Apply the selected finish and curing method
Make it specific to your project.
Enter the amount of work and choose the details you know. Your choices follow you into the Project Builder.
LOW / MIDDLE / HIGH REFERENCE
Low$6per sq ft
Middle$9.50per sq ft
High$13per sq ft
Low and high are published reference endpoints. Middle is their arithmetic midpoint, not a quoted average, product tier or firm price.
Match the reference scope first
- Confirm Finish before applying this reference to your quantity. The reference is a broom-finished concrete patio, not stamped or exposed-aggregate concrete.
The figures above remain the source reference. They do not price these selections or a complete installed project.
A planning reference for this service only. Selections, local labor, access, quantities and existing conditions need Coastal’s review. Do not add overlapping whole-project and component ranges.

KNOW WHAT COMES NEXT
From first idea to finished work.
Plan the scope
Plan pedestrian use, slope, drainage and adjacent thresholds.
Prepare and approve
Review design and approvals; arrange excavation, forms and reinforcement.
Complete the work
Inspect as required before placement, then place and finish the concrete.
Review and close out
Protect curing work and confirm when loads or traffic may be introduced.
- Planning & preparation
- 2–8 weeks
- Work on site
- 2–7 working days plus curing
Illustrative planning allowance for the stated scope, not a promised start or completion date. On-site time starts after approvals and materials are ready; procurement, inspection waits, curing and discoveries can extend the calendar.

PERMIT PLANNING
Check the scope and jurisdiction
Permit needs depend on the work and property address. OKC and Edmond review structural alterations; Moore requires permits for most remodels. Confirm finish-only exceptions and any separate trade permits.
- Changes to walls, structure or building use
- Electrical, plumbing or HVAC changes
- Work within a floodplain or historic district
ENGINEERING & DESIGN
Engineering is not usually needed
Engineering is not usually part of this finish-only scope. Stop for review if hidden damage, structural changes or unusual support loads are found.
- New structural work or damaged framing
- Unverified heavy-load support
Confirm requirements with the city or county responsible for the property before work begins. The address, exact scope and adopted code determine the final requirements.
