Patio slabs for older and newer homes
Leroy's housing has a median build year of about 1979 in Census Bureau survey estimates for 2020–2024, and about 17% of its units are mobile homes. Whatever the home, water has to leave it: the International Residential Code wants the ground to drop at least 6 inches over the first 10 feet out from the house, and any paving inside that 10-foot band to slope away at 2 percent or more.
Joints keep the cracking where it belongs. On a 4-inch slab they go no more than about 10 feet apart (24 to 36 times the thickness), never past 15, and each panel stays close to square, its length within 1.5 times its width, with no L-shapes.
A walk out to the slab is on walkways in Leroy, and a patterned top on the stamped concrete page; our Leroy services cover the rest.

Set the fall away from the house
The edges and slope are staked so water runs off away from the walls.
Pour and cut the joints
Concrete is placed, finished at the right set and jointed into near-square panels.
Texture it and cure it
A broom gives the surface grip, and curing compound or plastic holds the moisture in.

Pour-day patio questions
How do finishers know a patio is ready for its final finish?
By the footprint test: final finishing begins when a footprint leaves an indentation of ⅛ to ¼ inch, or 3 to 6 mm.
Should water be sprinkled on a patio to make finishing easier?
No. Sprinkling water or cement on fresh concrete to ease finishing causes dusting or scaling. Outdoor patios, walks and drives get a broom texture instead, for a surface that isn't slippery.
What is sprayed on a new patio to cure it?
A curing compound that meets ASTM C309 or C1315, put on right after the surface water sheen disappears and best applied in two coats at right angles. Where plastic sheeting is used instead, it must be at least 4 mils thick.
