Patterned Concrete for Patios, Walkways and Driveways
ASRE installs stamped concrete in Allentown and the Lehigh Valley for patios, walkways, driveways and other outdoor surfaces. Pattern, color and texture give the concrete a decorative finish, while the layout still needs to suit everyday use. Planning includes the surface footprint, preparation, drainage and connections to steps or doors, along with the sealing and care the selected finish needs.
Start with where people will walk, sit or park, then consider the appearance of the concrete beside your home. A pattern suited to a broad patio needs a different layout discussion from a narrow walkway with curves. ASRE reviews the proposed surface and surrounding edges before the work is defined. Discuss color, texture, sealer and wet-weather footing together to choose a finish suited to its location. Call 610-797-3212 for a free estimate on a new stamped surface or an existing decorative concrete area.
Decorative Surfaces and Their Site Connections
Define the use area first, then discuss the pattern, preparation and finish details for your property.
- Stamped concrete patios shaped around seating and outdoor access
- Patterned walkways connecting entrances, patios and other property areas
- Decorative driveway surfaces planned around everyday residential vehicle use
- Pool deck layouts planned for drainage and surface texture
- Stamped steps and landings coordinated with adjoining concrete surfaces
- Pattern and color selections considered alongside surrounding home materials
- Removal and base preparation for replacing existing concrete areas
- Sealer and finish care guidance for decorative concrete surfaces
How it works
Choose the Layout Before the Pattern
- 01
Describe the surface and its use
Tell ASRE whether the project is a patio, walkway, driveway, landing or pool surround. Identify the existing surface and where the new concrete needs to begin and end. Seating arrangements, pedestrian routes and vehicle use help establish a practical footprint before pattern and color choices become the focus of the estimate.
- 02
Check elevations and adjoining edges
Review doors, steps, walls and yard edges around the proposed work. A stamped patio still needs drainage, and a walkway needs sensible transitions at both ends. Discuss where runoff travels and how curves or changes in elevation affect the layout so decorative details support the way the finished surface functions.
- 03
Discuss pattern, color and texture
Consider how the selected pattern reads across the full area, including borders, curves and narrow sections. Review color alongside the house and nearby hardscape materials. Ask about texture and sealing for the intended use, particularly around a pool or frequently used entrance, where wet conditions make footing an important part of the finish discussion.
- 04
Define removal and supporting preparation
Where old concrete occupies the proposed area, confirm the removal limits and what stays in place. Review excavation, grading and base preparation for the new surface. The stamped finish sits on a concrete slab, so support and drainage need the same attention as the visible pattern before placement work begins at your property.
- 05
Finish the surface and review care
ASRE places and finishes the agreed decorative concrete area. Discuss curing, initial use and care for the chosen finish, including the role of sealer and future maintenance. Ask when pedestrians, furniture or vehicles should return to the surface, and follow the project-specific guidance for the completed installation and conditions at your property.

For Decorative Concrete That Fits Everyday Use
Stamped concrete suits homeowners who want pattern and color on a patio, entrance walk, driveway or pool deck while keeping a poured concrete surface. It also belongs in discussions about coordinated steps, landings and connections around the home. ASRE serves Allentown, Bethlehem, Easton, Emmaus, Macungie, Whitehall and the Lehigh Valley. Bring photos of the existing area and describe how you use it, including furniture placement, foot traffic and water runoff. Sound preparation and routine care support the decorative finish you select. If the main concern is fading or an uneven existing surface, ask about its condition before deciding on a complete replacement.
Project example
Stamped Patio Work Around the Amanda S. Home
The Amanda S. project shows ASRE's stamped concrete work fitted to the rear of a home. The installation included patio areas with curved edges, walkway transitions, stone wall accents and finished concrete surfaces around the house. The project addressed a rear area needing a more finished patio surface and better connections around the walls and yard edges. Decorative concrete patterns fit the home's layout, with curved patio edges and walkway transitions connecting the finished areas.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers to the questions we hear most. Need something else? Give us a call.
Where can stamped concrete be used?
ASRE provides stamped concrete for patios, walkways, driveways and related outdoor surfaces. Stamped concrete also works for steps and landings. Plan the area around its use, access and surrounding elevations, then choose the finish. A pool deck, entrance walk and driveway have different layout and care considerations. ASRE reviews the actual surface, its connections and preparation so the estimate reflects the decorative concrete project you want to build.
How should I choose a stamped concrete pattern and color?
Consider the size and shape of the proposed surface as well as nearby siding, masonry and existing hardscaping. A pattern needs to work through curves, borders and narrow connections, not only across the middle of a patio. Discuss available choices with ASRE and ask how texture and sealer affect the finished appearance. Make those decisions alongside drainage and intended use so the decorative choices suit the full installation.
Does stamped concrete need sealing or ongoing care?
Discuss sealing and maintenance for the selected finish during the estimate and after placement. Ask about sealer and routine care for your decorative concrete finish, including cleaning, what to avoid and when to check for maintenance needs. Conditions and use differ between patios, driveways and walkways, so ask for maintenance guidance matched to your own stamped concrete area.
How do I choose a texture with good footing?
Choose the texture and sealer with the surface location and everyday use in mind. Texture, sealer, water and ice affect footing, and the intended use matters when choosing the finish. Tell ASRE if the area surrounds a pool or serves a frequently used entrance. Discuss surface choices and drainage together. That discussion helps you plan a patio, walkway or pool deck with its exposure and regular foot traffic in mind.
Can ASRE review an existing stamped concrete surface?
Ask ASRE to review the area and describe whether the concern is fading, surface wear, cracks or unevenness. ASRE has restored a faded stamped concrete sidewalk and also provides concrete removal and replacement. The right approach depends on the existing condition. Identify movement or drainage problems alongside finish wear so ASRE can discuss surface care, support and layout issues as distinct parts of the proposed work.
What should I prepare for a stamped concrete estimate?
Have the property address, approximate dimensions and photos of the area ready. Note existing concrete, nearby doors or steps, drainage concerns and any pattern or color preferences. ASRE offers free estimates and a one-year workmanship warranty. Ask how that warranty applies to the proposed installation and discuss finish care separately. Call 610-797-3212 to explain whether you want a new decorative surface, replacement concrete or review of an existing stamped area.
