Concrete Patios & Driveways Barton Village: East-side subdivisions

Getting more out of the back yard in Barton Village

The back door slab on most Barton Village houses is big enough for a grill and nothing else. That is the single most common thing people want changed, and it is also the cheapest square footage you will ever add to a property.

Size it to the furniture, not to the door. A table with six chairs pulled out needs about twelve by fourteen feet before it stops feeling tight. We mark it out on the ground at the quoting visit so you are looking at the real footprint rather than a number on paper.

What we are asked for most here: Patio extensions, outdoor kitchen slabs, steps.

What we install in Barton Village

Surfaces

• Concrete Patios, a poured slab sized to the furniture and the door it serves
• Concrete Driveways, a slab built for vehicle loads, not foot traffic
• Concrete Walkways, a path from the street or drive to the door

Permits in Richmond County

Anything in the public right of way, the sidewalk across your frontage and the driveway apron where it meets the street, needs a permit from Richmond County and an inspection afterwards. Work behind the property line generally does not. We are licensed in Georgia and carry certificates for both states. We check which applies before quoting.

Questions we get asked

The ground is still settling. Should we wait?

Not necessarily, but it changes how we prepare. Backfill against a foundation keeps consolidating for a year or two, so we compact it properly rather than pouring straight on top and hoping. The alternative is a patio that follows the fill down.

Can you extend the builder's slab rather than replace it?

Usually yes. The join is visible because the two pours are different ages, so we plan it at a deliberate line. It costs far less than tearing out something only a few years old.

Does the HOA have a say?

In several of the newer communities here, yes, covenants can cover finish and colour. Worth checking before you commit to a pattern.
