Patio floor coatings in San Marcos, Texas
If people gather out back, the patio should be ready for them.
San Marcos patios host friends, family dinners and long evenings. We help you plan a coating around the table, the traffic between the kitchen and the yard, and where rain runs off.
Just name, phone and a rough size. Not sure of the size? Pick Not sure.
Patios built for company
Older San Marcos homes often have a back patio or a front porch slab that has been patched, painted or simply worn. Rentals often have a patio that sees more people than the house was designed for.
When a patio is mostly for entertaining, the plan centers on traffic and furniture. Where does the table sit? Which path runs from the back door to the grill and the yard? Where do chairs scrape every weekend? Those spots get the most wear and deserve attention during preparation.
We also look at the edges, steps, and where roof runoff lands, since a patio full of guests is no place to discover a puddle.
What we plan on a San Marcos patio
Tables, chairs and heavy pieces
Everything has to come off. Built-in kitchens, heavy planters or hard-to-move furniture are worth raising on the call.
Traffic lanes
The path between the door, grill and yard takes the most wear. We look at those spots closely.
Steps, edges and porch fronts
Steps and edges need clean decisions. We agree with you on where the coating starts and stops.
Runoff and old finishes
Where rain lands and whether old paint or sealer is present both affect preparation.
Clear expectations
We prefer non-acid preparation where the slab qualifies, and some patios need grinding, especially with old paint. We explain why first.
Movement cracks and drainage problems are not fixed by a coating.
Final scope and pricing are confirmed after review.

San Marcos patio questions
Can you coat my front porch too?
Often, yes. Bring it up on the follow-up call and we will review steps and edges together.
The patio was painted years ago. Is that a problem?
It changes preparation. Old paint often needs to come off, which may mean grinding. We tell you after review.
We have a party planned. Can you work around it?
Have the date ready for the follow-up call and we will talk through what is realistic.
Will it stop rain from pooling near the door?
No. A coating follows the existing slab. We point out runoff concerns during review.
Do I need photos?
Not to start. Name, phone and a rough size is enough to start.
