“I have used Creative Concrete at all 3 houses that I have lived in (also my parents have used them too). Usually after seeing the work that they do, my neighbors hire them too. The biggest job that they’ve done for us was a beautiful stamped flagstone sidewalk that wrapped from our disconnected garage to the house, around the side and all the way out to the front sidewalk on a rather large city lot. This included 3 stoops, one with disability access as well as a large patio. You cannot believe the artistry these guys displayed. The way they laid out cement ensured that the most amount of greenspace was preserved, used curved forms to achieve a very pleasing aesthetic all while creating a most practical access configuration. When we went to upgrade to a new house and sold in the valley of a down market, the new owners said that the curb appeal of the cement work is what sealed the deal for them. Brian and his crew are most deserving of the name ‘Creative Concrete’.” – Mike Bougie (see review on Google Maps)
“Creative Concrete did a large project for us this spring – a long driveway, sidewalk, and front steps in standard concrete plus a stamped and textured patio. Due to varying surface levels on the old patio and driveway, they recommended some major adjustments to level out the area and improve drainage. They also installed a hidden underground drain to carry water from our downspouts away from the driveway. From start to finish the whole team was prompt, courteous, and helpful. They brought in a large crew to get the project done in just a few days, and every one of them was polite and hardworking. We were very pleased with how it turned out and would highly recommend them to others.” – Tammy Wallin (see review on Google Maps)
WHAT IS STAMPED CONCRETE ?
Imagine combining the durability and strength of concrete with the look and feel of your favorite material. That is precisely what we can do with concrete. But how do we do it?
Once we pour the concrete, we can imprint a molded image into the surface as it dries. The image can be pre-fabricated or we can create it on the spot. We can also add color to the imprint to give it depth and character. Colors and shades also add to the authenticity of the image. Once the image dries, it takes on the characteristics of the material that you had in mind.
You can choose any pattern you want the concrete to look like:
- Wood
- Stone
- Brick
- Cobblestone
- Pavers
- Slate
- Tile
- And more…
Once the concrete completely dries and cures, you are left with an amazing design that includes patterns, textures, colors, or anything else that you added. Below are some examples of what we can do; please visit our Gallery to see more!

WHY USE STAMPED CONCRETE INSTEAD OF THE REAL THING ?
This is a question that home and business owners ask often. The answer is simple: other types of materials, such as stone, brick, pavers, and, of course, seashells, suffer from the following issues:
- Grass and weeds can grow through the sections or through the material.
- The other materials listed are not durable enough. Concrete lasts 25+ years.
- Concrete creates a seamless, smooth surface. Tiles, pavers, and cobblestone have to be pieced together.
- Some materials, such as wood, do not have the durability to handle high traffic areas or outside elements.
- For you to achieve the design you want with other materials, you may pay two to three times more for your surface.
Therefore, the best way to get the look you want with all the benefits of your favorite materials is to incorporate a stamped concrete design into your surface

“I had a stamped concrete patio, concrete driveway, sidewalk, and front stoop done by Creative Concrete Inc. I can’t say enough good things about this company. Brian the owner is very caring and communicates well. Willing to answer any and all questions. His team that performed the work were equally amazing. I stopped home daily over lunch they explained everything, had positive attitudes (despite less than desirable work conditions), and were very punctual. Their interpersonal skills were above what you get from most contractors we had some good laughs over small talk. In addition to all the small things (they add-up and mean a lot to a homeowner), the work they performed was paramount. Each measurement was perfect. From slant and slopes, shapes to edges, and curves to borders, they completed it all seamlessly. If you’re looking for an all around genuine company with quality work this is it. Thanks Creative Concrete Inc. for making my dream vision come to life!” – Kelsey Moyer (see review on Google Maps)
“We had the apron done on our driveway last year and they did a sidewalk in the front of our house and a slab in our backyard for outdoor use this year. They are vey professional. Always on time. Very clean. They did a great job on both projects. I am very happy. Bryan is very professional and great to work with and he has a great team. I will definitely be using them again for any future projects.” – Michel ProdHomme (see review on Google Maps)
