Stamped concrete has become one of the fastest-growing hardscape solutions for Greater Boston residences, and CountBricks leads the charge with AI-powered precision. Whether you envision a cobblestone driveway in Brookline or a slate-inspired patio overlooking the Charles, CountBricks makes the process seamless—from first conversation to final sealant.
Stamped concrete is fresh concrete that is colored and textured with specialty mats to mimic brick, stone, wood planks, or even custom designs. The result delivers the strength of concrete and the beauty of premium pavers without the maintenance headaches of shifting joints or weed intrusion.
• Four-season durability stands up to freeze-thaw cycles
• Wide pattern library complements Victorian, Colonial, and modern architecture

CountBricks’ voice-enabled estimating engine captures on-site dimensions, slope data, and access challenges while you walk the property. Within minutes, homeowners receive a detailed line-item proposal reflecting current Boston material pricing and local labor rates.
