My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Did you use any particular stain in the foundation concrete and what are the dimensions of each square/slab? Thanks!

    Hello Hadaus, thanks for you inquiry! We used Davis Colors concrete which is a pre-mixed concrete product and the color we chose was 'Silversmoke'. We saw cut the concrete patio in various sizes, but the average section is ~ 5' x 8'.

    Love the concrete color! I saw there are two versions of Silversmoke by Davis Colors: Silversmoke (Carbon) & Silversmoke (Iron Oxide). Do you know which one this is?

  • 8 years ago

    i actually have this same question. We love this color, but would like to know if it's SILVERSMOKE 8084 or 860. We are pouring in 5 days, would love to know this detail! Thanks :)
