Green Lake Concrete Contractor
Green Lake and the surrounding bungalow neighborhoods have some of the smallest typical project footprints in Seattle. Many of our jobs here are walkways, stoops, and modest backyard patios for craftsman and Tudor bungalows from the 1920s-1940s. The lots are tight but the work is precise.
What we do in Green Lake
- Front walkway replacement on bungalow lots
- Stoop and entry stair refresh with broom or stamped finishes
- Smaller-footprint backyard patios (often 150-300 sq ft)
- Side-yard walkways connecting front and back
- Decorative concrete pour-overs for old, structurally sound surfaces
Green Lake sees plenty of wet winters but rarely deep freezes. Our biggest concern here is surface wear from age — most of the original concrete is 70-100 years old. We're often deciding whether to recondition vs replace based on what the homeowner wants to spend.

FAQs from Green Lake homeowners
Our front walkway is from the 1920s. Replace or refinish?
Both are valid options. If the slab is structurally sound — not heaving, no major cracks — reconditioning gives you a fresh look at maybe 60% of replacement cost. If the slab has settled, has open cracks, or roots have lifted it, replacement is the better call. We'll show you the trade-off at the estimate.
How small a patio will you take on?
We've poured patios as small as 80 sq ft. Smaller projects get priced per-job rather than per-square-foot because the setup time dominates. We're happy to do them — they're often the most fun designs.
Can you match concrete to an existing 1920s walkway?
Closely, yes. Old concrete has a distinct color and texture from age. We can match the finish with a color stain after the new pour cures, so adjoining slabs read as one continuous surface.
