Bendezu Industries: Building Concrete Patios / Lanais with Expertise
1. Consultation and Design:
Every project begins with understanding your vision. Our experts will meet with you to discuss your needs, preferences, and budget. We’ll consider factors like the patio’s purpose, size, shape, desired finish, and integration with the existing landscape.
2. Site Preparation:
- Marking and Excavation: We carefully mark the patio or lanais area, ensuring precise dimensions and alignment. Then, we excavate the site to the appropriate depth, considering factors like soil type and desired patio height.
- Base Preparation: A compacted gravel base is crucial for stability and drainage. We meticulously prepare the base, ensuring a level and solid foundation for the concrete.
3. Forming and Reinforcement:
- Reinforcement: To enhance strength and prevent cracking, we strategically place steel reinforcement within the forms. This is especially crucial for larger patios or areas with heavy traffic.
- Formwork Construction: We build sturdy forms using high-quality materials to define the patio’s or lanais shape and contain the concrete during pouring.
4. Concrete Pouring and Finishing:
- Concrete Mixing: We use a precise mix of cement, aggregates, and water to achieve the desired strength and workability. Our team ensures thorough mixing for consistent quality.
- Pouring and Leveling: The concrete is carefully poured into the forms, ensuring even distribution and proper compaction. We use specialized tools to level the surface and achieve the desired slope for drainage.
- Finishing Touches: Depending on your preferences, we offer various finishing options, including:
- Smooth Troweled Finish: Creates a classic, sleek look.
- Broom Finish: Provides a textured surface for better slip resistance.
- Stamped Concrete: Mimics the appearance of other materials like brick or stone.
- Exposed Aggregate: Reveals the decorative aggregates within the concrete for a unique texture.
5. Curing and Sealing:
- Curing: Proper curing is essential for concrete strength development. We ensure the concrete is kept moist for the recommended curing period.
- Sealing (Optional): We offer optional sealing services to protect the concrete from stains, moisture, and de-icing salts, enhancing its longevity and appearance.
6. Quality Control:
Throughout the entire process, our team adheres to strict quality control measures to ensure a flawless and durable finished product. We inspect every step, from site preparation to final finishing, guaranteeing your complete satisfaction.
