Concrete Patio Ideas: Stylish Solutions Made Easy
Planning a fresh outdoor space? A concrete patio is one of the most versatile, low-maintenance, and long-lasting choices you can make. Whether you’re aiming for sleek modern design, a rustic garden retreat, or a functional family hangout, concrete offers endless possibilities.
At Midlands Concrete Pump Hire, we don’t just talk concrete — we make it happen, even in the most challenging garden layouts. With our line pump that can reach up to 100 metres, getting concrete where it needs to be is no problem at all. That’s about the length of a full-sized football pitch!
Let’s explore some concrete patio ideas — and how our team can help you bring them to life, effortlessly.
1. Stamped Concrete for a Stylish Finish
Want the look of stone, brick, or slate without the maintenance or cost? Stamped concrete mimics these natural textures while offering the durability of a solid slab.
How We Help:
- Our pump can deliver concrete around the back of a house, through fences, or across large gardens — no need for wheelbarrows.
- Even if your ideal patio is at the far end of your garden, we can pump concrete with precision, reducing mess and time.
2. Exposed Aggregate for a Natural Look
Exposed aggregate patios show off the texture of stones and pebbles within the concrete mix, giving a rustic, slip-resistant finish. Great for garden paths and curved patio edges.
Our Advantage:
- With a 100-metre reach, we can lay this mix in hard-to-access areas, such as behind terraced houses, across shared spaces, or even down steep slopes.
- No mixing on-site, no mess — just clean, efficient delivery.
3. Smooth Polished Concrete – Modern & Minimalist
If you’re going for a contemporary, architectural look, polished concrete is a striking option. It’s smooth, sleek, and reflects light beautifully — perfect for patios connected to modern interiors.
Why Use Our Line Pump:
- Perfect for precise pours in tighter patio forms or under canopies/pergolas.
- Avoid the hassle of wheelbarrowing through your home or garden — we pump directly from the street to the slab area.
4. Multi-Level or Split Patios
Split-level patios add depth and interest to your outdoor space. Ideal for sloped gardens or where you want to separate dining and lounging areas.
Pumping Makes It Possible:
- Traditional wheelbarrow access would struggle with tiered or awkward layouts.
- Our high-reach pump handles elevation changes, twists, and long distances — like pouring at the back corner of a large property, or down steep inclines.
Compare That Distance: What Does 100 Metres Look Like?
To give you a better idea of how far 100 metres is:
- It’s longer than a football field.
- About the size of the Statue of Liberty laid down
- Longer than a stack of 22 elephants – Big reach. Bigger impact.
So even if your patio is tucked away at the very end of your property — we can reach it.
