We are Ohio’s most trusted company for fiberglass pool and spa installation, pavers and hardscaping. Servicing the Dayton, Columbus and Cincinnati areas. No subcontractors, ever! Let our skilled & experienced, in-house team build the backyard you’ve been dreaming of!
"We cannot say enough about the amazing staff at Advanced Backyard Solutions. After speaking with several pool contractors, all of whom either did not win our trust or they simply never got back to us, we found this incredible team. Throughout our journey towards pool ownership, we encountered many people, several bids from local pool contractors, and many disappointments. We soon came to learn that Advanced Backyard Solutions is a family-run business, and that is the essence of how they treated us from start to finish and beyond, like family. Our job was extremely difficult, a pool on a steep incline that would require terracing. Frankly, we're not sure ours was their favorite job because of the extreme challenges of the hillside terrain, the same conditions that drove other contractors away, but every one of the crew associated with Advanced Backyard Solutions should be commended for outstanding work and detailed professionalism. From the initial design and visual/conceptual renderings, to ground-breaking, construction of the retaining walls, pool delivery, concrete work, electrical work, plumbing, the retractable safety cover, and everything in-between, Advanced Backyard Solutions delivered! They even attended a tricky permitting hearing to ensure our county zoning board had all of the facts to approve our build. The result has been nothing short of stunning, picturesque, and worthy of an award. In your quest to find the best fit for your pool, retaining wall, and/or patio project, you absolutely owe it to yourself to contact the Advanced Backyard Solutions family. Ask for Jacque (pronounced "Jackie") and tell her Steve and Andrea sent you!"

Stamped concrete is a decorative technique where concrete is patterned, textured, or embossed to resemble materials like brick, tile, stone, or wood. After pouring the concrete, installers add color and stamp patterns onto the surface before it sets, creating an attractive finish. Basic stamped concrete designs start at $8 per square foot, making them less expensive than pavers, brick, or slate. However, more intricate designs cost up to $28 per square foot. While complex designs are pricier, stamped concrete often provides a cost-effective alternative to traditional materials.
A stamped concrete overlay costs between $3 and $5 per square foot, making it an affordable choice to update an existing surface. This overlay option refreshes outdated concrete by adding design elements such as multiple colors and custom patterns. In a 100-square-foot project, the expense is between $300 and $500, and the process enhances appearance with minimal additional work.
Stamped concrete lasts up to 25 years when installed by expert professionals using quality materials. This durability means your surface is engineered to remain attractive and strong throughout its lifespan. Regular resealing every two to five years and prompt repairs ensure the concrete maintains its integrity and visual appeal over its whole lifespan.
Stamped concrete is a cost-effective alternative to laying pavers. This option provides comparable aesthetic appeal at an average rate of $12 per square foot, less than the high expense of brick or slate installations. Homeowners gain a modern and customizable finish while reducing overall installation and maintenance expenses when they choose stamped concrete.
