Patch the old slab or pour new stamped concrete?
It mostly comes down to what's under the slab. If the base is sound and the cracks are small, a repair can carry you, but a slab that's sinking or draining toward the house needs to start over.
A repair is enough when:
- Cracks are thin and not growing
- The slab still sits level
- Water runs away from the house
- Only a small section is damaged
- Plain concrete suits you fine
A new stamped pour makes sense when:
- The slab has sunk or tilted
- Water pools or runs toward the house
- Cracks are wide or spreading
- The surface is chipping or dusty
- You want the look of stone or brick
- Most of it needs replacing anyway
How a stamped pour goes
You get in touch
Call or send the form with the rough size of the area and what you have in mind, and we set up a time for me to come look.
A visit booked
I look at the site
I check the ground and where water runs, ask how you'll use the slab, go over pattern and color, then write an estimate listing what's in and what isn't.
A written estimate
Paperwork and pour plan
If you go ahead, we sort out any paperwork with the right office, then pick the pour day and start time with you so the color comes out as even as we can get it.
A pour date
Forming, pouring, stamping
Our crew sets the forms, pours, colors and presses the pattern while the concrete is still workable, and I'm on site to answer your questions.
A stamped surface
Curing, sealing, clean-up
Once the slab has cured, meaning it's had the wait it needs to harden, we seal the surface and haul away the forms and scraps.

What our stamped concrete work includes
Tear-out and digging
We break out the old slab if there is one and dig out soft dirt instead of raking it level.
A packed base
We pack the subgrade, the ground the slab sits on, so the concrete has firm support from day one.
Forms and slope
We set the forms so the finished surface sheds water away from your house, not toward it.
Steel in the slab
We add rebar where the job calls for it, steel bars inside the slab that help hold it together.
Your color method
We settle the color with you first, whether it's mixed into the batch or worked into the fresh surface.
Stamping the pattern
Our crew presses the slate, brick or stone pattern into the surface while the concrete can still take it.
Control joints
We cut control joints, shallow grooves that give the slab a planned place to crack, before cracks pick their own spot.
Sealer
We seal the finished surface to protect the color, following the sealer maker's instructions.
What sets the price of stamped concrete?
Size sets the starting point, and the finish adds to it. A busy pattern with borders takes more hand work than one stamp across the slab, and how the color goes in changes the price as well as the look. If part of the area is just a path, plain concrete sidewalk building with a broom finish, the brushed texture on most walks, keeps that piece simpler.
The base is the part people want to cut first, because nobody sees it after pour day. I won't trim the base to make a bid look better. Tearing out an old slab, digging out soft dirt and packing the ground costs money, and it's what gives the pattern something solid to sit on. The schedule mostly turns on the weather, since we pick the pour day around the heat, and your written estimate shows where your job lands.
Why Enterprise homeowners call us for stamped work
I've run this business since 2013, and I still come out to look at each job and write the estimate myself. Our own crew does the forming, pouring and stamping, and I'm there on pour days. I'd rather lose a bid than sell you work you don't need, and when something like the weather is out of our hands, I say so before we start.
Clark County keeps soil maps for the valley, including one for expansive soils, the kind that swell when wet and shrink as they dry. The county means them to show trends near the surface, not what's under your yard, so I look at the ground at your place before we plan the base.

How much does stamped concrete cost in the Las Vegas area?
Stamped concrete in the Las Vegas area usually costs about $14 to $28 per square foot. That's the going rate around the valley, not a quote from us, and where your job lands depends on the size, the base work and the finish you pick. Your estimate spells out what's included and what isn't.
How do I choose between integral color and color hardener for stamped concrete?
Choose by the look you want and your budget, because integral color tints the whole mix while color hardener works on the fresh surface. Integral color is iron oxide pigment added while the concrete is mixed, and color hardener is a dry powder spread on the fresh concrete, often before stamping, that colors the top and makes it denser. Ask which one a quote includes, and ours will say.
What is the best way to time a stamped concrete pour in Enterprise heat?
Pour when conditions are cooler, at the time of day or night the forecast allows, because hot weather makes concrete set faster and harder to compact and finish. Hot weather can also leave the color uneven when parts of the slab set at different rates. That's general hot weather guidance, so we watch the forecast with you and set the start time around it, which is why a pour date can move.
What causes stamped concrete to crack?
Most cracks come from a base that wasn't packed, joints cut late or skipped, and a fresh surface drying too fast. Fine surface cracks called plastic shrinkage cracks form mainly in flat concrete when the top loses water faster than water rises to it. No contractor can promise a slab won't crack, but a packed base and control joints cut on time keep cracks where we chose.
How often does stamped concrete need resealing?
Reseal regularly, on the schedule the sealer maker gives or when the finish looks worn, because sealers wear down from use and the weather. Plan it as a repeat cost of keeping the surface protected. For the first coat, one color hardener maker advises letting stamped concrete cure for 72 hours or more before washing and sealing.
Do I need a permit for stamped concrete in Enterprise NV?
If the work touches the public right-of-way, the public strip along the street, Clark County Public Works issues an encroachment permit for it. For the rest of the job, we check which office covers your address before we start, handle any application and inspections, and tell you up front if anything is on you. We're licensed and fully insured, and the Nevada State Contractors Board is the agency that licenses concrete contractors in the state.
