How do you fix a bad stamped concrete job?
I’m fuming! I spent extra money on our new concrete patio to have a fancy stamped design, but our contractors unfortunately did an extremely poor job. How do you fix a bad stamped concrete job?

Concrete work can be expensive, so having it not turn out how you envisioned has to be extremely disappointing. Luckily, there are plenty of different options you could consider to salvage this bad stamped concrete job:
