Patios & Pool Decks
Custom concrete patios and pool decks designed for Arizona outdoor living, from simple slabs to decorative stamped finishes.
Making Life Better In Greater Phoenix & East Valley
Arizona’s climate is built for outdoor living. With over 300 days of sunshine each year, your backyard patio or pool deck is one of the most used spaces in your home. At Runyon Construction Group, we design and build concrete patios and pool decks that look beautiful, feel comfortable underfoot, and stand up to years of desert sun, monsoon rain, and heavy foot traffic.
We serve homeowners throughout Greater Phoenix and the East Valley, including Chandler, Gilbert, Mesa, Tempe, Scottsdale, Queen Creek, San Tan Valley, Apache Junction, Casa Grande, and surrounding communities. Whether you are building a new patio from scratch, expanding an existing slab, or resurfacing a worn pool deck, our experienced concrete crews deliver professional results on every project.
Concrete patios provide a versatile foundation for your outdoor living space. A simple broom-finished patio slab works well for covered areas and utility spaces, while decorative options like stamped concrete, colored concrete, and exposed aggregate turn your patio into an outdoor showpiece. We offer dozens of stamp patterns that replicate the look of natural flagstone, slate, brick, tile, and wood plank at a fraction of the cost of those materials.
Pool decks require special attention in Arizona. The surface must be slip-resistant when wet, comfortable to walk on in bare feet during summer, and durable enough to withstand pool chemicals, splashing water, and constant UV exposure. We install cool deck finishes and textured overlays that stay noticeably cooler than standard concrete, an important consideration when summer surface temperatures can reach 150 degrees or more on dark-colored materials.
Our pool deck services include new construction around newly installed pools, resurfacing and repair of existing decks, and expansion of deck areas to accommodate outdoor kitchens, fire pits, seating areas, and shade structures. We also pour concrete pads for outdoor BBQ islands, hot tub installations, and pergola foundations.
Every patio and pool deck project begins with a thorough site evaluation. We assess drainage patterns, existing structures, utility locations, and soil conditions. Proper grading is essential in Arizona to direct monsoon runoff away from your home’s foundation and prevent water from pooling on the patio surface. We install appropriate slopes and drainage channels to keep your outdoor space functional during heavy rains.
Our construction process includes excavation, base compaction, form setting, rebar or fiber mesh reinforcement, pouring, finishing, and curing. For decorative work, we apply color hardener, release agent, and stamp patterns while the concrete is fresh, followed by washing and sealing for a rich, lasting finish.
We have completed hundreds of patio and pool deck projects across the Valley, from modest backyard slabs to expansive outdoor entertainment areas with multiple levels, built-in seating, and custom finishes.

Backyard Patio Installation
We design and pour concrete patios in any size and configuration to create the perfect outdoor living space for your Arizona home. From simple utility slabs to expansive entertainment areas, every patio includes proper grading, reinforcement, and your choice of standard or decorative finishes.
Pool Deck Construction & Resurfacing

A solid concrete pad is the essential foundation for outdoor kitchens, BBQ islands, and fire pit areas. We pour reinforced pads at the correct thickness for your equipment, with proper utility access points and drainage to support your outdoor cooking and entertaining space.
Decorative Stamped Patio Concrete
Stamped concrete patios replicate the look of natural flagstone, slate, brick, or tile at a fraction of the cost. We offer dozens of patterns and color combinations that complement Arizona architecture and desert landscaping, creating an outdoor space that looks custom-built.
Patio Expansion & Renovation
Expand your existing patio to create more usable outdoor space, or renovate a worn surface with a fresh overlay or decorative finish. We match elevations and finishes to create a seamless transition between old and new concrete sections.
