Project Overview

A rustic wood plank stamped concrete walkway in Bellevue provides a durable and artful approach to this craftsman-style home's main entrance. The surface delivers a convincing interpretation of aged timber, achieved through a detailed stamping process and a multi-toned staining application. The primary reddish-brown color of the main planks is contrasted by darker, grey-toned perpendicular planks that create visual structure and break up the linear path. Close inspection reveals deep grain textures and simulated knots, adding to the authenticity of the finish. The work extends to a covered front porch, creating a unified entry experience. In-progress images confirm the meticulous formwork required to execute the intersecting plank design, a testament to the precision involved. The finished walkway is thoughtfully bordered with river rock, integrating the hardscape into the surrounding landscape design.

Things to Know

01

How should I maintain a wood plank stamped concrete walkway to protect it from heavy foot traffic?

Regularly sweep away debris and gently wash the surface with a mild detergent. To protect against wear and fading from foot traffic, the walkway should be resealed every 2-3 years with a high-quality, non-slip sealer. This restores the protective layer and enhances the color.

02

What is the expected lifespan of a wood plank stamped concrete patio in areas with frequent freeze-thaw cycles?

When installed correctly with a proper sub-base, reinforcement, and control joints, a stamped concrete surface can last over 25 years. The key is a high-quality sealer, which prevents water penetration and protects the concrete from damage caused by freezing and thawing.
