Pros: Long-lasting. Depending on the weather, exposure to road salt and subsoil preparation, concrete should last at least 15 years and often more than 50 years with biannual sealing and proper drainage. Precise edge treatments are a snap; its smooth surface is ideal for basketball and makes snow removal easy.
Cons: You’ll have to wait seven days for the concrete to cure before driving on it. Cracking is inevitable – particularly in freeze/thaw conditions – and repairs stand out. Concrete can’t be re-layered like asphalt, and should be sealed every two years. The finish can vary widely depending on the installer. Oil stains are tough to remove, colored concrete fades over time. Because concrete cracks when not supported, poor drainage and unstable soil can reduce life span to just five to eight years.

Stamped concrete is becoming more popular and frequent due to the wide array of options when it comes to patterns, colors, and the cost of stamped, or imprinted concrete in relation to the materials it is a substitute for.
Colors and patterns are often chosen to blend with other stone, tile or textured concrete elements at the residence. Complex designs incorporating steps, courtyards, and fountains can be achieved when patterns are pressed into the concrete.
