Why Flatwork Is the Foundation of Every Great Outdoor Space

When you picture your dream outdoor space—whether it's a clean patio for grilling or a smooth path winding through your yard—it all starts with solid concrete flatwork.
Flatwork refers to any horizontal surface made of poured concrete: patios, walkways, sidewalks, even garage floors. At CBD Concrete, we specialize in high-quality flatwork installations that are built to last—and built to impress.
What Exactly Is Concrete Flatwork?
Flatwork is the unsung hero of your outdoor (and sometimes indoor) living space. It's any horizontal concrete surface that serves a functional or decorative purpose. That includes:
- Concrete patios for outdoor entertaining
- Walkways and sidewalks for safe, stylish passage
- Driveway sections and extensions
- Garage or basement floors
- Concrete pads for HVAC systems or sheds
Flatwork needs to be level, durable, and properly reinforced. And that’s exactly what we do best at CBD Concrete.
Why Homeowners Need Quality Flatwork
Let’s be real—poorly installed flatwork can cause more headaches than it's worth. Cracking, pooling water, uneven surfaces? No thanks.
Here’s why investing in professional flatwork is a smart move:
- Curb Appeal: A clean, modern patio or pathway adds instant charm to your yard.
- Safety: Smooth walkways reduce the risk of tripping and injuries.
- Value: Quality flatwork increases the overall value and usability of your home.
- Durability: Our concrete is reinforced and finished to withstand years of use and Texas weather.
- Customization: With options like broom finish, exposed aggregate, or even decorative overlays, flatwork doesn't have to be plain.
