We are a small business. We were established in 2012. Most of business is from word of mouth. We specialize in all line of concrete work, fencing, sodding and landscaping.
"Starting with the estimate (which was comparable to the other estimates I got), Gibran spent more time discussing exactly what I wanted and needed: the old walk was narrow, did I want it widened; squared off or rounded out where it met the garage slab; raising the back walk slightly to eliminate the extra, shallow step at each end; and most usefully, how to work around the 100 year old catalpa, that had lifted and broken the old walk, between it and the house. We ended up adding a curve to the walk, just by the tree, giving it extra space without disturbing the existing tulip bed on the other side of the walk along the house. He and his crew worked quickly and neatly, and did a very nice job. The new walks meet the city sidewalk and garage slab evenly, the curves are smooth, the tree has room, the tulip bed and ivy along the house weren’t disturbed, and now it’s much less of a pain to shovel snow than it used to be! As a bonus, landscaping was not part of the contract, but Gibran found a source of black dirt for us, and when there was a delay (while waiting for the city inspector) after the forms were in place, he and his crew spread the dirt needed to regrade the yard for us, rather than just sit around. I’m very pleased with the work they did for us, enjoyed working with Gibran and his crew, and would definitely recommend 5 Star Concrete & Construction."

Stamped concrete is simply concrete that’s colored and stamped to mimic brick, tile, stone, or even wood. Installers pour the slab, add pigment, press the design in while it cures, and seal the surface for a finished look you’ll love. Expect basic patterns to start around $8 per square foot—well below the cost of actual pavers or slate—while intricate, multi-color designs can reach $28 per square foot. Even at the high end, you’re still getting a budget-friendly alternative to natural materials.
A stamped concrete overlay costs between $3 and $5 per square foot, making it an affordable choice to update an existing surface. This overlay option refreshes outdated concrete by adding design elements such as multiple colors and custom patterns. In a 100-square-foot project, the expense is between $300 and $500, and the process enhances appearance with minimal additional work.
Stamped concrete lasts up to 25 years when installed by expert professionals using quality materials. This durability means your surface is engineered to remain attractive and strong throughout its lifespan. Regular resealing every two to five years and prompt repairs ensure the concrete maintains its integrity and visual appeal over its whole lifespan.
Yes. Stamped concrete typically runs about $12 per square foot, which comes in well under the price of most brick or slate pavers. You’ll get the same custom look without paying for individual stones or the extra labor it takes to set them. Add in lower maintenance over time—no weeds growing between joints—and stamped concrete often wins on both upfront and long-term cost.
Stamped concrete gives you near-endless design options at a price lower than brick or stone. Choose from dozens of patterns and colors to tailor the look to your patio, driveway, or walkway. On the downside, stamped concrete requires professional installation and periodic resealing to maintain its visual appeal and durability. Evaluating these factors can help you decide if the aesthetic and functional benefits justify the higher upfront investment and the ongoing maintenance efforts.
