Stamped & Stained Concrete
The look of stone, brick, or wood — in poured concrete that lasts.
Stamped and stained concrete patios, walkways, and pool decks in Northern California — custom colors, patterns, and seamless large-area pours.
Stamped concrete delivers the look of natural stone, brick, slate, or wood plank in a single poured surface — often at a lower per-square-foot cost than the equivalent in pavers or natural stone. A1 Designing installs stamped concrete patios, walkways, driveways, and pool decks across Northern California.
Most of our stamped concrete projects run $12–$22 per sq ft installed, with custom multi-color patterns and hand-tooling on the higher end.
What you need to know.
Stamped concrete in Northern California typically costs $12–$22 per square foot installed; custom multi-color stamps with hand-tooling run $20–$28/sq ft.
Stamped concrete is ideal for large continuous areas (>500 sq ft) where the seamless look of one pour reads cleaner than individual pavers.
Properly sealed stamped concrete in Northern California typically lasts 20–25+ years with periodic resealing every 2–3 years.

Stamped concrete runs $12–$22 per sq ft installed depending on color, pattern complexity, and prep. Simple single-color stamps start lower; multi-color custom patterns with hand-tooling run $20–$28/sq ft.
Pavers are more durable in the long term: individual units can be lifted and re-set after settling or root damage, while poured concrete cracks must be patched or fully replaced. Pavers also offer more design flexibility and resale value.
