Your Outdoor Living
Space, Built for Rain.

Portland patios built with water-first slope control, stable prep, and clean finishes so the surface stays usable, dries faster, and holds up through Oregon weather.

Turn outside
into a place you
actually use.

A patio isn’t just concrete, it’s how you start your mornings, host your people, and use the part of your home you can’t see from the couch. Done right, it feels intentional: comfortable underfoot, safe when wet, and designed around how you move through the space.

Why patios disappoint after the
first wet season

A patio can look great and still be wrong.
The giveaways show up when the weather hits:

Water sitting

where people walk and where furniture lives

A “slight” slope

sending runoff toward the house

Slick patches

that invite algae and moss

Low spots

that never dry out

Excessive cracking

because joints weren’t mapped with intention

A layout that looks fine

on paper but doesn’t work for hosting
If the patio wasn’t designed for water behavior, Portland will remind you.

How we build patios that stay usable

We start with two questions: How will you live on it? And where will water go? Then we build the fundamentals that make the answer hold up.

01

Drainage & Elevation Read

We walk the site and identify the natural water path, trouble spots, and what needs to change.

02

Use-Based Layout Planning

Furniture zones, walk paths, grill placement, steps, transitions so it functions like a real outdoor room.

03

Prep That Prevents Low Spots

A stable base is what keeps the patio from settling, creating puddles later.

04

Slope Designed for Comfort

Enough to move water. Not so much it feels off. That balance is craftsmanship.

05

Joint Layout with Clean Lines

Concrete can crack over time. Joints determine whether it stays controlled and less noticeable.

06

Finish Chosen for Real Life

Traction, feel, and style that fits the home-premium without being impractical.

07

Cure Guidance You Can Follow

We set expectations clearly so the surface reaches its strength and performs long-term.

Design and finish options
THAT WON't overwhelm

Most people don’t need a hundred finish names. They need to know what works.


We guide choices based on:
  • Comfort & traction
    when it’s wet
  • Maintenance
    (what stays cleaner, what needs more care)
  • Style
    that matches the home (clean, intentional, not flashy)
  • How you host
    (flow, zones, transitions, steps)
You’ll understand the tradeoffs before anything is permanent.

Defined work prevents
surprise costs

Outdoor projects go sideways when the scope is vague. We write it down, lock it in, and communicate clearly so timelines, inclusions, and expectations stay simple.
Clear scope. Clear timeline. Straight answers.

I've hired Pat's Pound & Pour many times now for smaller and larger jobs, ranging from bulged sidewalk repair (required by the City of Portland...erg) to a slab for a detached studio, as well as stairs and retaining walls. They are awesome !

We’ve been using Pat’s Pound and Pour over the past few years, and they have been a delight to work with. Their team is a wealth of knowledge and experience that add so much value to our homes. From start to finish working with them is easy every step of the way, and the end product always comes out fantastic. Can’t recommend them enough. Thanks, Pat and team!

I have lived in Spain and Japan and traveled to 25 other countries. I have been in jobs in the service industry my whole life. Expecting great service is not a character flaw.

Outstanding service. I am new to the area so was at loss for who to call.  Professional level at all points of contact. Jarrod is the best. Great price. They showed up on time and leveled the yard and poured a new driveway in no time. I have had over a year's use so far and the job will clearly last a lifetime. Use this company first for concrete.
