Can I Use Quickrete to Pour a Patio?
Pouring a concrete patio with Quikrete ready mix bagged concrete is much more difficult than having concrete delivered in a truck. You will have to hand mix in a wheelbarrow (not recommended) or use a portable concrete mixer (recommended) to mix water with bagged concrete. If you choose this method, have plenty of labor on-hand and stick to smaller concrete patios and projects.
If you find using bagged concrete is too labor intensive and time consuming and there’s no budget to hire a concrete contractor, consider building a gravel stone pathway leading to a patio area made of decomposed granite in another area of your backyard.
