Concrete Patios in West Jordan & the Salt Lake Valley

A patio is the cheapest square footage you will ever add to a house. It just has to be poured so it drains away from the building.

Most West Jordan homes were handed over with a 10x10 concrete pad off the back door and nothing else. That's a landing, not a patio — you can't fit a table, a grill, and chairs on it, so the backyard never really gets used.

We pour patios that solve that: full-depth slabs sized around actual furniture, extensions that tie into the builder pad, fire pit and hot tub bases, and outdoor kitchen slabs with the conduit and gas sleeve run before the concrete goes down. The detail that matters most isn't the finish — it's the slope.

Sizing a Patio That Actually Works

The most common regret we hear is "we should have gone bigger." Working numbers we use when laying out a patio:

  • Dining for six — 12x14 ft minimum. A round table plus pulled-out chairs eats 10 feet on its own
  • Seating and a grill — add 6x8 ft, and keep the grill zone off the main traffic path to the door
  • Fire pit area — 12 ft diameter clear, minimum, with chairs pulled back
  • Hot tub base — 6" slab, sized 12" wider than the shell on all sides
  • Traffic lane — leave a 36" walking path from the door past any seating

The Details That Separate a Patio From a Slab

Slope, always away from the house. We pour a minimum 1/8" per foot fall away from the foundation. Flat patios pond, and ponded water against a foundation is how basements get wet and slabs settle.

An isolation joint at the house. The patio and the foundation move independently. Pouring a slab tight against a foundation wall with no isolation joint is how you crack both.

4" thickness, 5-6" under a hot tub. A filled six-person tub is over 5,000 lbs on a small footprint.

Sleeves and conduit before the pour. Gas line, low-voltage lighting, or a future outdoor kitchen — a $40 sleeve now beats saw-cutting a finished slab later.

Concrete Patios FAQ

We can match thickness, finish, and joint pattern, and we dowel the new pour into the old slab so the two move together. Color is the honest limitation — new concrete cures lighter than a slab that's been down five years, and it takes a season or two to close most of the gap. If an exact match matters, resurfacing or staining the whole area is the way to get there.
A typical backyard patio is a 3-4 day job: layout and excavation day one, base and forms day two, pour day three, strip and clean day four. Access matters more than size — if we can't get a truck or a buggy into the backyard, we're wheeling concrete and the schedule stretches.
Concrete costs less per square foot, installs faster, and has no joints for weeds. Pavers flex with soil movement and individual units can be lifted and reset. In our clay soils with a proper base, poured concrete is the better value for large areas; pavers make more sense for small, intricate, or heavily curved layouts.
Every concrete slab develops some cracking — that's material behavior, not a defect. The job of good work is to control where. We cut control joints within 24 hours at proper spacing so shrinkage relieves in a straight, intentional line instead of wandering across the middle of the slab.
