CONCRETE WITH CHARACTER
Decorative concrete gives patios, walkways, pool areas and entries a finished, custom look without the upkeep of pavers or natural stone. As a decorative concrete contractor based in Smyrna, HMV Concrete designs and installs decorative concrete across Middle Tennessee, including Murfreesboro, Brentwood and Franklin.
Every project starts with your home's exterior. We help you choose colors, textures and accents that tie your outdoor spaces together, then handle the prep, pour and finishing so the result looks as good up close as it does from the street.
WHY CHOOSE DECORATIVE CONCRETE
Decorative concrete gives you the look of a high-end outdoor finish with the strength and easy care of concrete. It is a smart way to upgrade your property without the maintenance that comes with pavers, stone or wood. Here is what decorative concrete from HMV Concrete offers.
A Look That Fits Your Home
Colors and textures chosen to complement your siding, brick, roofline and landscaping.
Lasting Color
Color mixed into the concrete runs through the surface, and a quality sealer helps keep it rich for years.
Low Maintenance
No loose pavers, no weeds between joints and no boards to stain. Cleaning and periodic sealing are all it takes.
Texture and Traction
Textured finishes like exposed aggregate add grip underfoot, a smart choice for pool areas, steps and walkways.
One Look Across Your Property
Match your patio, walkways, pool deck and driveway borders for a consistent, finished look throughout your yard.
OUR DECORATIVE CONCRETE FINISHES
Our decorative concrete services cover a range of finishes that can be used on their own or combined. Here are the options homeowners ask for most.
Colored Concrete
- Color added to the concrete mix for a rich, even tone that complements your home's exterior.
Exposed Aggregate Concrete
- The top layer is washed away to reveal the natural stone in the mix, creating a textured, slip-resistant surface.
Stamped Concrete
- Patterns that mimic stone, slate, brick or wood plank for a custom, high-end look.
Decorative Borders and Bands
- Stamped or colored borders that frame a patio, walkway or driveway and give plain concrete a finished edge.
Custom Combinations
- Mix colors, textures and borders to create a one-of-a-kind look for your outdoor space.
OUR DECORATIVE CONCRETE PROCESS
Decorative work leaves little room for error, so every project follows a careful, step-by-step process that protects the look you chose.
Step 1
Design Consultation
We review your property, show you color and finish options and plan a design that fits your home.
Step 2
Site Preparation
We excavate, grade for drainage and compact a solid base so the finished surface stays level.
Step 3
Forming & Reinforcement
We set the forms, including curves and borders, and add reinforcement for strength and reduced cracking.
Step 4
Concrete Pouring & Color
We pour quality concrete and apply your chosen color so the tone is even across the entire surface.
Step 5
Decorative Finishing
We apply your finish, whether that is exposed aggregate, a stamped pattern or a decorative border, then let it cure properly.
Step 6
Sealing & Final Walkthrough
We seal the surface to protect the color and finish, clean the site and walk through the result with you.
WHY PROFESSIONAL INSTALLATION MATTERS
With decorative concrete, small mistakes show. Uneven color, poorly timed finishing or a weak sealer can leave you with a surface that looks blotchy or fades early. Our crew plans every step around the finish, so your decorative concrete looks the way you pictured it.
What sets our decorative work apart:
- Consistent color across the entire surface
- Finishing timed for clean texture and crisp detail
- Quality sealers that protect color and finish
- Clean edges, borders and joint lines

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Thinking about decorative concrete? Here are answers to the questions we hear most. If you do not see yours, reach out and our team will be happy to help.
How long does it take to install a concrete slab?
Typically, concrete slab installation takes 1 to 3 days, depending on the size and complexity of the project. This includes preparation, pouring, and curing time.
What’s the difference between a concrete slab and a concrete foundation?
A concrete slab is a flat surface poured as the base for a structure, while a foundation may have additional elements designed to bear weight. Both are essential, but slabs are mainly used for flat surfaces.
Can concrete slabs crack over time?
Yes, concrete slabs can crack, especially if not installed correctly. We minimize the risk by using control joints and proper reinforcement to ensure lasting durability.
Is sealing necessary for concrete slabs?
While not mandatory, sealing concrete slabs is recommended to protect them from moisture, stains, and wear. This is especially important in high-traffic areas or locations exposed to harsh weather.
How thick should a concrete slab be?
For most residential projects, a 4-inch thick concrete slab is standard. However, the thickness may vary based on the slab’s purpose and load-bearing requirements.
