Stamped Concrete Services in Rogers AR - a patterned slab built on a solid base
Tired of a plain gray patio? We pour stamped concrete that looks like stone or brick and sits on a packed, solid base.
What goes into stamped concrete done rightin Rogers, from the base up
Stamped concrete is regular poured concrete that we color, then press with rubber mats while it's still soft, so it looks like stone, brick, wood or tile. We seal it at the end. At CJ Rogers Concrete Company, we offer stamped concrete services in Rogers, AR and plenty of the cities around it.
The pattern gets the looks, but the base decides how it holds up. We dig out and pack the subgrade, the ground the slab sits on, same as for plain concrete, because the stamp hides none of the mistakes I spent years fixing. If the budget's tight, I'd pick a simpler pattern before I'd skimp on the base.
The price mostly comes down to the size, the pattern and color method, and how much old concrete we tear out and haul. The schedule turns on the weather and on curing, the days the slab needs to harden before it's sealed and put to use. Your estimate puts the numbers on your own job.
You'll know what's under your slab and what's in the price before you sign, so give me a call at (479) 413-0106.
Where stamped concrete works around your house
We match the pattern and color method to how the spot gets used, because a patio that sees bare feet and a driveway that sees tires need different things.
Patios
A stamped patio can pass for flagstone or brick out back. We check where the water runs and slope the slab away from the house, not toward it.
Driveways
Driveways take tires, so we pour them to a thickness made for cars and set rebar inside, the steel bars that help hold the slab together if it cracks.
Walks and entries
Walks can be stamped edge to edge or just bordered, with the rest poured as a plain concrete sidewalk. For the slab in the garage, ask about our garage floor concrete instead.

We pour, color and stamp
We pour, color and stamp the slab while it's soft, then cut control joints, shallow grooves that give any cracks a straight line to follow instead of wandering.

Once the slab has cured enough, we seal it. Then I walk it with you so you know how to look after it and when it'll want a reseal.
Stamped concrete questions
How much does stamped concrete cost in Arkansas?
Stamped concrete in Arkansas usually costs about $12 to $25 per square foot, which is a statewide estimate and not our price. Where your job lands depends on the size, the pattern, the color method and how much prep and tear out it needs. Your estimate turns that into a figure for your own patio or driveway.
Which color method is best for a stamped concrete driveway?
Color hardener is the common pick for driveways, because it gives richer color and a harder top surface, though deep damage shows gray underneath. Integral color runs all the way through, so a chip shows the same color, but the tones stay softer. I'll help you weigh which matters more for how you use yours.
How often does stamped concrete need resealing?
Reseal when it needs it, not on a calendar, which usually means when the surface stops shedding water and stains or loses its depth of color. Sealing more often than that builds up layers that are slow and costly to strip off. We'll tell you to reseal when it starts looking dull or soaking up water, not just because a year went by.
What causes stamped concrete to crack?
Most cracks I've fixed trace back to a base that was raked level instead of dug out and packed, or control joints cut late or skipped. Concrete shrinks as it cures, so it's going to crack somewhere. We pack the base and cut the joints on time, so any cracking usually follows the lines we chose.
How do I protect new stamped concrete in its first winter?
Use sand for traction instead of deicers during the slab's first winter, according to a cold-weather guide from another state's concrete trade group. After that, the same guide says to keep magnesium or calcium chloride, fertilizer and water-softener salt off the slab.
What license should a stamped concrete contractor have in Arkansas?
Arkansas issues a Limited home improvement license for residential projects under $50,000, labor and material included, and an Unlimited one for any size. If your project is a big one, ask whether the contractor holds the Unlimited type. The state's license lists Concrete among its categories, so it's fair to ask whether theirs includes it.
