Concrete Patio in Wheaton, IL
Wheaton patios have to be planned around the moraine grade. On the sloped streets a back yard often falls away fast enough that a patio at door level would sit a foot above grade at its far edge, which means a step down or a low wall. Near downtown the extra consideration is appearance: a plain broom finish against a century-old house reads wrong.

Wheaton specifics
Wheaton permits patios and reviews added impervious surface. The practical constraint on the sloped streets is that a patio set at door level frequently needs a step or a low wall at the far edge, which we measure and price at the estimate. For Historic District properties we sample the finish before pouring.
Questions
My Wheaton back yard slopes. Will the patio need a step?
Often. On the moraine streets a patio at door level can sit a foot above grade at its far edge, so it needs a step down or a low wall. We measure the fall at the estimate.
What patio finish suits an older Wheaton house?
Seeded pea gravel or exposed aggregate, both above a broom finish per square foot. They read as period-appropriate against older brick and stone, where a modern broom finish looks out of place.
Does Wheaton require a patio permit?
Yes, and the city reviews the added impervious surface. We file the application and handle the inspection as part of the job.
