New Orleans Concreters pours custom concrete patios across Chalmette, the heart of St. Bernard Parish, just downriver from the city. You get a local crew, honest itemized pricing, and concrete prepped, jointed and sealed to hold up through southeast Louisiana's heat, humidity and shifting soils, not just look good on day one.
A patio built around how you actually use it
We size and shape the patio around real life: room for the table and chairs, a clear path to the grill, and space to walk around the furniture without stepping in the grass. Stamped, broom-finished, exposed aggregate or colored, the finish is your call.
Patio finishes we pour
- Stamped & colored for a stone or brick look.
- Broom finish for a clean, classic, budget-friendly surface.
- Exposed aggregate for great grip and timeless texture.
- Borders and bands to frame the space and add detail.
Done right, the first time
A patio is only as good as what is under it. We prep and compact the base, pour to the right thickness, place control joints correctly, and seal the surface so your patio does not heave, crack or fade a year later.
Concrete patios for Chalmette homes
From Carolyn Park to Chalmette Vista, we build Chalmette concrete patios graded to drain and finished in broom, stamped or exposed-aggregate textures. Much of St. Bernard sits below sea level and flooded in 2005, so drainage is central to everything we pour: we slope every patio to shed heavy rain and joint it to resist settling.
Permits in Chalmette
St. Bernard Parish permits go through the Department of Community Development's Safety and Permits Division, handled through the MyGovernmentOnline portal. Exterior concrete like driveways, patios and slabs is generally subject to parish permitting and drainage review, especially given the low elevation. We help confirm and pull the permits your Chalmette project needs.

Common questions
How much does a concrete patio cost?
It depends on size, finish and site prep. A plain broom-finish patio is the most affordable; stamped and decorative finishes cost more for the upgraded look. Every estimate is free and itemized.
How big should my patio be?
For a table and chairs plus walking room, most homeowners are happiest around 12x12 or larger. We help you size it on-site to fit your furniture and yard.
How long does a patio take?
Most residential patios are poured in a day once prep is done, then cured and sealed over the following days.
Do I need a permit for concrete work in Chalmette?
St. Bernard Parish generally regulates exterior concrete through its Safety and Permits Division, with drainage review given the low elevation. We help confirm and pull the permits your project needs and build it to parish code.
