385-455-8915
Lehi Concrete Services installs decorative concrete in Lehi, UT for homeowners and businesses that want more than a plain gray slab. With the right finish, texture, or pattern, concrete can become one of the most attractive features on your property — without giving up any of the strength and durability that makes it a smart long-term investment.
We've helped Lehi property owners transform driveways, patios, walkways, and pool areas into spaces that look intentional, polished, and built to last.
What Is Decorative Concrete?
Decorative concrete is standard structural concrete enhanced with color, texture, or pattern during or after installation. It performs the same as regular concrete — it handles traffic, weather, and daily use — but it looks significantly better doing it.
Instead of settling for a flat, utilitarian finish, decorative concrete lets you choose a surface that complements your home's style, matches your outdoor design, or simply stands out from the typical driveway or patio on your street.

Our Decorative Concrete Options
We offer several decorative finishes depending on your goals, budget, and how the surface will be used. Here's what we can install:
Stamped Concrete
Stamped concrete uses textured mats pressed into fresh concrete to create patterns that mimic natural stone, slate, brick, cobblestone, or wood plank. It's one of the most popular decorative options because it delivers a dramatic visual upgrade while keeping the strength of concrete underneath. It works especially well on patios, driveways, and pool surrounds.
Colored Concrete
Concrete doesn't have to be gray. Integral color is mixed directly into the concrete before the pour, giving the entire slab a consistent, lasting color. Surface-applied stains and dyes can also be used to add warmth, depth, or a more natural look. Color options can be used alone or combined with a stamp pattern for maximum impact.
Exposed Aggregate Finish
Exposed aggregate reveals the natural pebbles and stones within the concrete mix by removing the top layer of cement paste during finishing. The result is a textured, natural-looking surface that adds visual interest, improves slip resistance, and holds up extremely well over time. It's a popular choice for pool decks, driveways, and walkways.
Broom and Texture Finishes
For a cleaner, more subtle upgrade, we offer enhanced broom finishes and custom texture options that give concrete more visual depth without going full decorative. These are a great middle ground — more refined than a standard slab, but not as bold as stamped or colored options.
Salt Finish
A salt finish creates a subtle, slightly pitted texture by pressing rock salt into fresh concrete and washing it away after curing. The result is a clean, modern look that works well on covered patios and contemporary outdoor spaces.

How to Maintain Decorative Concrete
Seal every 2–3 years to protect color, prevent staining, and lock in the finish
Clean spills quickly — especially oil, grease, and acidic substances
Avoid harsh de-icers like rock salt in winter; use a concrete-safe alternative
Sweep and rinse regularly to prevent buildup of dirt and debris
Address small cracks early before moisture gets underneath the surface
Strong Looks Start With Strong Foundations
Decorative concrete is only as good as the installation behind it. A beautiful stamp or color won't save a slab with a poor base, bad drainage, or improper jointing. We approach every decorative project the same way we approach any concrete job — with proper site prep, solid forming, correct thickness, and careful attention to curing.
The decorative finish is the part you see. The quality underneath is what makes it last.
Lehi Concrete Services Decorative Concrete Installation Process
Decorative concrete requires more precision than a standard pour. Every step has to be timed right — especially when working with color, stamps, and texture — because once the concrete sets, the window to work with it closes. Here's how we handle every decorative project from start to finish:
Site evaluation
We visit the property, measure the area, check grade and drainage, and discuss your design goals before anything else
Design consultation
We walk you through finish options, color choices, and patterns that fit your space, home style, and budget
Site preparation
We excavate to the correct depth, remove old material if needed, and compact the base to create a stable, even foundation
Forming
We set forms to define the edges, shape, and slope of the surface — curved edges and custom layouts are planned here
Reinforcement
We place rebar or wire mesh where needed based on load requirements and soil conditions
Concrete pour
We pour and screed the concrete to achieve an even surface at the correct thickness
Color application
For integral color, pigment is mixed in before the pour. For surface color or stain, it is applied at the right stage of the finishing process
Stamping or texturing
Stamps, mats, or texture tools are pressed into the concrete during the right window of workability — timing here is everything
Jointing
Control joints are cut at correct intervals to manage where the concrete naturally wants to crack, keeping the surface looking clean
Curing
We protect the slab during the curing period to ensure the concrete reaches full strength without surface damage
Sealing
Once cured, we apply a high-quality sealer suited for outdoor use in Utah's climate to protect the color, finish, and surface integrity
Every stage of this process affects the final result. A beautiful decorative finish that's rushed or built on a poor base won't last. We take the time to do it right at every step — because the finish you see is only as good as the work underneath it.

FAQs: Decorative Concrete in Lehi, UT
How much does decorative concrete cost in Lehi, UT?
Standard decorative finishes like colored or textured concrete typically run $8 to $15 per square foot. Stamped concrete with complex patterns or multiple colors usually falls between $12 and $20 per square foot depending on design complexity and site conditions. Basic broom or salt finishes cost less. The best way to get an accurate number is a free on-site estimate.
How long does decorative concrete last?
With proper installation and regular sealing, decorative concrete can last 25 to 40 years. The color and finish will hold up well with routine maintenance. Fading and surface wear are the most common issues over time, and both are manageable with periodic resealing.
Is stamped concrete slippery?
Stamped concrete can be slippery when wet, especially with smooth patterns. We recommend adding a non-slip additive to the sealer for any surface near water or in high-traffic areas. Exposed aggregate and broom finishes are naturally more slip-resistant and are often a better choice for pool decks and walkways.
Can decorative concrete be installed over existing concrete?
In some cases, yes. Concrete overlays and microtoppings can be applied over sound existing slabs to give them a new decorative finish. However, if the existing slab is cracked, sunken, or structurally compromised, a full removal and replacement is usually the better long-term solution. We'll assess your existing surface and give you an honest recommendation.
How do I keep decorative concrete looking good?
The most important step is sealing it regularly — every 2 to 3 years for outdoor surfaces in Utah. Beyond that, clean up spills promptly, avoid harsh de-icers in winter, and address any small cracks before they grow. A well-maintained decorative concrete surface can look great for decades.
Does decorative concrete add value to a home?
Yes. Upgraded driveways, patios, and entry paths are among the improvements that consistently improve curb appeal and make a property more attractive to buyers. Decorative concrete is a practical upgrade that adds both everyday enjoyment and real perceived value to your home.
