2009 Decorative "Durable Designs Concrete Pavement Awards."

Awarded to Greystone Masonry

A sloping site wedged between huge oak trees, a septic field, and the residence was transformed largely by the use of decorative concrete into a diversified recreational setting. From 9a.m. to 7p.m. on a single day, 25 crew members poured a 4,000psi mix into a thickness of five inches over a 3 inch gravel base for the entire 3,500sqft. installation, reinforced by 1/2in. steel rebar 14 inches on center. Job site constraints permitted no pumping and no Georgia Buggy Deployment.

Color hardeners and random acid stain highlights, a water based sealer, and three stamp designs were used to achieve the pavements natural stone appearance, which compliments a large stone veneer fireplace flanked by retaining walls, a fire pit surrounded by stone veneer masonry sitting walls, and an elevated spa adjoining the pool. Additional features include and outdoor pergola supported by custom cast stone columns, a large koi pond with cascading waterfalls, a full size volleyball pit, outdoor shower, and playground area.
