Decks and Patios
As expert patio builders we offer many different options for decks and patios. We construct stunning concrete patio extensions including plain, stamped, stained, colored and scored concrete in addition to our artisan stone patios. The enduring beauty of a custom stone patio not only adds value to your home, it also creates a new space for backyard enjoyment and entertaining. You can create an alluring backyard living space starting with a beautiful foundation – a great patio.
Our Attention to Detail is in a Class by Itself
Infinity’s building practices eliminate the hassles of cracking in all of our patios by pouring specially mixed concrete under our patios. We then craft strong structural integrity by increasing the strength of our overall concrete to 3500 psi (pounds per square inch), a rating above that poured by most other contractors. This is done to give you a stronger patio and reduces the possibility of cracking. In addition, we use a 12 x 12 grid of #3 (3/8”) rebar which is wire tied and doweled into existing foundations or patios for added strength. These building techniques ensure that your patio will be enjoyed by your family for many years to come.
Another important detail that we pay attention to is making the patio look like it is natural extension of your home. This is a step up from the workmanship provided by most other patio builders. All of our concrete patios are finished to match your home’s exterior as closely as possible. Even if your home has a stucco finish, we will give any vertical edge of your patio a stucco finish and then paint it to match the exterior color. We feel attention to every workmanship detail - even the small ones - is important to the overall look and lasting value.
Wood Decks
In the Austin area, decks are primarily built from cedar or composite material. All our projects are built by trained and skilled carpenters from detailed drawings that are developed for every project. There are numerous options for sealants and colors of paint and stain. Whether you want natural wood or a more durable composite material for your custom deck, we can give you the look you want.
Flagstone Patios
There are a multitude of different stones to choose from in building your stone patio including Oklahoma, Arizona, Majestic and Texas Limestone. No matter what stone you prefer, we can build with it. We complement the stone color with a colored mortar such as a grey, tan or beige/white depending upon the stone installed.
Paving Stone Patios
Infinity Exteriors is a Belgard Certified Paver Installer. Utilizing interlocking stone pavers for your patio design provides unlimited possibilities in design concepts. There are different shapes, textures, surfaces and colors and vary from a very modern look to that of the streets of Europe centuries ago. Pavers are typically more expensive than stone when installed correctly, but the end result will create an impression that have your entire neighborhood talking!
Seat Walls and other Masonry
We custom build patio seat walls to blend in with other masonry outdoor living area elements we construct like a built-in BBQ grill, firepit, water feature, privacy walls and other components of an outdoor kitchen. Seat walls can be made of limestone including Rattlesnake, Nicotina, Texas Mix or Sandstone in colors of tan, chocolate and grey. Most are capped with 2” thick sanded limestone, or constructed with bull-nose edges. Another option is a Leuders grey-tan limestone stone cap. A popular option is to build walls around a free-standing BBQ pit to conceal it and make the patio more aesthetically pleasing.
Surround your patio with raised flower beds to add color to the perimeter. Or add a stone landscape border to add interest or to prevent rainfall from eroding raised areas.
Outdoor Lighting
Infinity can turn your backyard into a dramatic wonderland at night. We can install architectural lights under masonry caps which shine downward, illuminating columns, walls, step locations and walkways, for both safety and aesthetics. The options are as broad as the imagination including mood lighting, bright lighting over outdoor kitchen work areas or ceiling fans with lights.
