Concrete Patio & Outdoor Living Slabs

Outdoor slabs for seating, dining, and year-round exposure

A patio should feel like part of the house — level, well-drained, and finished cleanly at the edges — not a rushed rectangle that ponds water against the siding. Great Lakes Pour pours concrete patios and outdoor living slabs for homeowners across Oakland and Macomb Counties, including communities like Troy, Rochester Hills, Warren, and Sterling Heights.

We are Great Lakes Pour of Washington, MI: a concrete contractor focused on flatwork and slabs. Not a brewery. Not a poured-walls-only foundation company.

Common patio project goals

• New outdoor living slabs sized for furniture, grills, and foot traffic
• Replacements when an old patio has settled, cracked, or drains toward the house
• Connections to walkways, steps, and existing outdoor spaces
• Finishes that look intentional beside landscaping and exterior finishes

Tell us how you plan to use the space — dining, covered seating, hot-tub pad adjacency, or a simple low-maintenance slab. Access through side yards and fence gates often shapes the pour plan as much as square footage does.

Michigan weather on outdoor slabs

Patios sit outside all winter. Freeze-thaw and surface wear still matter even without driveway traffic. Proper base, sensible thickness for the use case, and a surface that sheds water reduce the cycling damage that shows up every spring. We will discuss timing and cure so you know when furniture can go back out.
