What’s a Concrete Lanai, Exactly?
A lanai is an outdoor patio or porch space, often screened in or covered, that extends your living area into the backyard. You’ll see them a lot in Sarasota and all over Florida, we build lanais anywhere folks want to enjoy the outdoors without the hassle of dirt, bugs, or uneven pavers.
A concrete lanai is the base of that structure. It’s a flat, level slab designed to support outdoor furniture, enclosures, or even structural overhangs like a screen room, pergola or patio cover. Unlike wood decks or pavers, concrete is clean, long-lasting, and easy to maintain. Just hose it off, and you’re good to go.

Why Choose Concrete for Your Lanai? Here’s why more homeowners are going with concrete instead of wood, pavers, or composite decking:
- Low Maintenance – No sanding, sealing, or replacing boards
- Long Lifespan – 30+ years with proper installation
- Easy to Clean – Power wash and walk away
- Customizable – Add color, texture, or patterns
- Bug & Rot Proof – Unlike wood, concrete doesn't warp or attract termites
- Sturdy & Level – Furniture stays put, no wobbling
- Better Drainage – With the right slope and prep, water runs off properly
Concrete Lanai vs. Patio vs. Slab — What’s the Difference?
We get this question a lot: “Isn’t a lanai just a patio?” The answer is: sort of.
Here’s the breakdown:
- Concrete Patio – General outdoor slab, usually uncovered
- Concrete Slab – Can be a patio, a floor, or a foundation (more structural by our definition)
- Concrete Lanai – A patio space that’s typically part of a home’s design, often covered or screened-in, built to integrate into the home’s living space
Common Lanai Uses
We’ve poured lanais for just about everything you can imagine. Here are some popular uses:
- Screened-in porch base
- Outdoor dining areas
- Hot tub or spa areas
- Barbecue and grilling stations
- Poolside lounge space
- Covered sitting areas
- Garden or planter bases
- Kids’ play area
The Right Mix, The Right Finish
Not all concrete is created equal. For outdoor use like lanais, we use concrete mixes designed to handle:
- Heat and sun exposure
- Rain and moisture
- Outdoor weight loads (grills, furniture, even hot tubs)
Popular Finishes for Concrete Lanais
You don’t have to settle for plain gray (unless you want it — we like that too). Here are some finish options:
- Broom finish – Simple, grippy, and clean
- Stamped concrete – Looks like stone, tile, or brick without the upkeep
- Colored concrete – Add pigment for a richer look
- Exposed aggregate – Pebble texture that’s natural and rugged
- Slick trowel finish – Smooth and modern, ideal for covered lanais
Our Concrete Lanai Installation Process
Here’s how we pour lanais that hold up over time and weather:
- Free Site Visit & Estimate
We come out, take measurements, inspect drainage and grade, and give you a straight-up quote. - Design & Planning
We’ll talk through finishes, expansion joints, slope, drainage, and future features (like screens or posts). - Site Prep
We excavate the area, remove old surfaces (if any), and compact a gravel base. This prevents future cracking or shifting. - Forms & Reinforcement
We build clean, square forms with the proper slope, and add wire mesh or rebar as needed. - Concrete Pour & Finish
We pour with the right mix and finish it to your spec — broom, stamped, colored, you name it. - Curing & Sealing
We give the concrete time to cure and apply a sealant if you want extra protection against moisture, mold, or staining.
What Does a Concrete Lanai Cost? The cost of a concrete lanai depends on a few things:
- Size (square footage)
- Thickness and PSI of concrete
- Finish type (plain vs. decorative)
- Access to the backyard (tight spaces can cost more)
- Base prep needed (removal, grading, etc.)
- Add-ons like color, stamps, sealers, or footings for posts
Add-Ons & CustomizationsThinking about adding more later? We can prep your lanai for:
- Screen enclosures
- Pergolas or awnings
- Outdoor kitchens or grills
- Built-in drainage channels
- Post anchors or footings
- Hot tub electrical stubs
