A concrete patio gives you a solid, even surface behind the house for a table and a grill. Georgia Premier Contracting Group pours concrete patios for homes in Monroe and the towns around it. We build new backyard patios where there is only grass today, and we extend patios that have grown too small.
Patio work also covers the steps down from the back door, plus pool-side and porch slabs. Patios are one part of what we do as a concrete contractor in Monroe, GA. Call or text (770) 743-6706, and we will look at the space and put a free quote in writing.

Start with what will sit on it. A table needs room for chairs to slide back and for people to walk behind them. Lay out the shape with a garden hose or stakes, then set your furniture inside it. A patio on the west side takes the late-day sun, and July highs around Monroe run near 90 degrees.
A patio at the back door also serves as the landing outside it. Georgia's residential code generally calls for that landing to be at least 36 inches deep. Where the yard sits lower than the door, steps make up the drop. The code caps each step's rise at 7 3/4 inches, and steps in a run must match within 3/8 inch.
The Monroe area gets about 49 to 51 inches of rain a year. The code calls for hard surfaces within 10 feet of a house to slope away at least 2 percent. That is about a quarter inch of fall per foot. Trade guidance also puts an isolation joint, a strip of filler, where the slab meets the house.
A patio extension adds new concrete to the edge of the slab you have. It works best when the old slab is sound and still sheds water away from the house. If it has sunk or tipped toward the house, a new patio may serve you better.
New concrete can meet the old slab in two ways. Steel bars can run from the old slab into the new one to tie them together. That helps the two edges stay level with each other. An isolation joint between them lets each slab move on its own instead.
A patio build out goes further. It might wrap the patio around a corner or add a lower section with a step down. New concrete may not match an old slab's color. A stamped border at the seam can make the change look planned.
Georgia leaves the list of work that needs no permit to each city and county. So ask before a patio goes in. Inside Monroe city limits, the City of Monroe Code Department answers that question. In unincorporated Walton County, ask Walton County Planning and Development, even with a Monroe mailing address.
Inside the city, Monroe's zoning ordinance also limits how much of a lot hard surfaces can cover. Roofs and paved areas count toward that limit, so a large patio adds to the total. The city's stormwater policy warns that an owner may be liable for concentrating water onto a downhill neighbor's lot.
Near a creek, both Monroe and Walton County keep a 50-foot natural buffer along each bank. Hard cover such as concrete is also barred from the next 25 feet, with some exceptions. Monroe's Historic Preservation Commission reviews construction in the city's nine historic districts. If your home is in an HOA, check its rules as well.
