    Hello Lisa! Yes you can stain this area. You can choose to use an acid stain, which adds depth and earthy tone to the concrete or a water based stain which comes in a wider variety of hues. When working with an experienced contractor you can mix colors together to achieve the exact shade or color you are looking for. The outcome will depend on the type of surface you are working with (textured, flat, ridged) And all will be sealed with a heavy duty concrete sealant to maintain the finish. Depending on the level of surface preparation and products you use, the stain can last anywhere from 2-8 years with proper maintenance. We recommend hiring a local professional for this project - your project will last longer and look gorgeous! Good luck!
