HOW IT WORKS: The Patio Building Process

Beautiful custom patio design

 

Step 1: Visit the Showroom

As you prepare to start your project, we’re here to answer any questions that come up along the way. One great option for receiving answers is to visit the Chase Remodeling home improvement showroom. Many people prefer to visit our showroom to explore available options and designs for stone patio projects.

If you’re interested in visiting us or want us to come see you, call our toll-free number at 301-476-8488 to schedule an appointment with one of our design consultants. You can also fill out the form above.

Unlike many of our competitors, we won’t pressure you into making a decision.

Step 2: Hiring the Contractor

Take your time when selecting the right concrete contractor to build your stone patio. It’s important to make sure you have a trusted company who provides quality work at a reasonable price. Here’s how to find the right contractor:

  • Start your search locally and ask around to friends or neighbors for recommended concrete contractors they have worked with before.
  • Ask the company for referrals.
  • Ask for proof of insurance and licensing.
  • Look at pictures of similar past projects the concrete contractor has completed to see if it suits your tastes.
  • Compare estimates between different companies, realizing that a slightly pricier bid could indicate higher quality work.
  • Find out how much experience the contractor has.

 

Step 3: Experience Counts

Professional stone patio and concrete contractors have the proper education and experience regarding everything required to complete the job, whether large or small. Look for the following indications that the contractor you have chosen has the proper experience:

  • The contractor has several decades of experience in the business.
  • The contractor knows which materials to use in which set of circumstances.
  • The contractor can explain the necessity of backfilling and seeding if grass must be dug up around the perimeter of the new stone patio during the construction process.
  • The contractor has experience dealing with environmental factors that impact the job.
  • The contractor has many satisfied customers who are eager to give a good review.
  • The contractor is good at staying on budget.
  • The contractor offers a written bid and signs a formal contract before beginning work.

Step 4: The Decision & Contract

Once you decide exactly what you are going to build you then should compare bids and make a decision based on referrals, experience, price, scheduling, and the overall curb appeal of the home improvement contractor. The contract should clearly state the work to be completed, finish, texture, price, and warranty information.

Get Everything in Writing

Once you decide on the right concrete contractor to work with, make sure you thoroughly read the contract before you sign on the dotted line. The contract should clearly state the following:

  • The work to be completed
  • The materials used in the project
  • The timeframe for completion
  • Individual material and labor prices and the overall project cost
  • Warranty information

Add a second floor and two car garage and remodeled the entire first floor. They did an amazing job I get so many compliments from all of my neighbors how quick they were and clean no complaints of trash from the neighbors at all. Definitely recommend them.

I had two projects done by Chase Remodeling. They are both great! They were professional, clean, and knowledgeable. They created plans in advance so that there were no surprises. Excellent company to work with.

I remodeled my house. I called Chase and his team. He was excellent from the first moment I hired him; he was always attentive to my needs. I will always recommend him and will call him again in the future. His service was very pleasant. Thank you, Chase! Excellent service!!!

We had our kitchen fully remodeled and couldn't be happier with how it turned out. Derek was involved throughout the entire process — always reachable, always on top of things, and never left us wondering what was happening or when. What really stood out was seeing the finished kitchen next to the 3D design we had approved — it looked exactly like it, honestly even better in person. Clean work, no surprises, and a team that clearly cared about the result.

We had an amazing experience with Chase! They have worked/are working on a lot of houses in our neighborhood. Derek promptly came to our house to give us an estimate and stayed on top of the project the entire time. We will definitely be using them again for future projects.

We had Chase Remodeling replace our siding and install OKNA windows last fall and honestly the house doesn't even look like the same place. The windows especially have made a noticeable difference in noise and drafts. The crew was clean, worked efficiently, and left the property in good shape every day. The whole process was well organized — we knew what to expect and when. Really happy we went with them.

Cathy made the whole design process so much easier than I expected. She was incredibly patient as we went back and forth on finishes and cabinet styles — never made us feel rushed. She helped us narrow down selections we were completely overwhelmed by and somehow always had an alternative ready when something wasn't quite right. The kitchen came out better than we pictured it. Highly recommend working with her and the whole Chase Remodeling team.

We had Chase Remodeling handle our bathroom and couldn't be happier. Bob was straightforward from the first conversation — no runaround, no surprises on process or pricing. The work was clean, done on time, and exactly what we asked for. Would absolutely use them again.

I was very pleased with the communication and efficiency of Derick and the team. My basement needed new flooring due to water damage and it was time for a color refresh since I had the team working. I’m very pleased with the end results and would use them again.
