Project Overview
Clean geometric lines define this multi-level sand finish concrete patio in Bellevue, creating a foundational platform for a modern farmhouse. This installation features wide, integrated concrete steps that gracefully manage the transition from the home's main level to the surrounding grade. The surface is articulated with a precise grid of saw-cut control joints, which serve both a functional purpose in guiding contraction and an aesthetic one by reinforcing the structure's angular design. A consistent, dark gray color provides a sophisticated and neutral base that complements the building's architecture. The sand finish offers a fine, uniform texture, ensuring a non-slip surface with a refined appearance. The craftsmanship is evident in the crisp, clean edges and the smooth transitions between the different elevations, resulting in a durable and visually striking outdoor living area.
The multi-level design effectively navigates the property's grade.
A fine sand finish provides a subtle, non-slip texture.

Things to Know
01
Does a sand finish provide enough traction for concrete patios with integrated steps, especially in wet conditions?
Yes, a sand finish creates a fine-grit, sandpaper-like texture that offers excellent slip resistance. This makes it a very safe and suitable choice for multi-level patios and walkways where foot traffic and weather exposure are concerns, providing more grip than a smooth or troweled surface.
02
How do numerous saw-cut control joints affect the long-term durability of a geometric concrete patio?
Properly placed saw cuts are critical for the long-term durability of any concrete slab, especially large geometric ones. They create weakened planes that encourage cracking to occur in a controlled, straight line, preventing random cracks from forming across the surface and preserving the patio's structural integrity.
