Van Drunen Outdoor Living
Zachary Van Drunen approaches outdoor living with a concrete craftsman’s eye for areas that need to be safer, cleaner, and more finished. As the owner of Van Drunen Outdoor Living, he works with homeowners who are dealing with worn concrete, uneven walkways, aging patios, rough steps, pool decks, driveways, and outdoor spaces that no longer feel the way they should.
His background in concrete gives him a practical understanding of what homeowners are up against. Zachary learned the trade by doing the work, spending years outdoors and developing a feel for the details that matter. Over time, he saw how often the usual answer involved tearing things out, bringing in heavy equipment, and disturbing the surrounding yard or landscaping. That led him toward resurfacing and repair methods that give homeowners a practical alternative to full replacement.
The business focuses on poured-in-place resurfacing and concrete repair methods, including Rubber Stone, Vuba Stone, and polyjacking. Rubber Stone offers a durable, slip-resistant finish that works well for pool decks, patios, walkways, and other high-use areas. Vuba Stone creates a natural stone finish that can refresh existing concrete, tile, or asphalt when the surface is suitable. When concrete has settled, polyjacking can raise and stabilize the slab from beneath without the disruption of full replacement.
There is also a design side to the work. Homeowners are not limited to plain gray concrete or a basic repair look. With different colors, textures, and finish options, the surface can be chosen to fit the rest of the property, from the brick on the home to the landscaping around a patio or pool deck. That gives each project a more finished feel, while still solving the practical problem underneath.
For the customer, the experience is meant to feel clear and manageable. Zachary takes time to assess the project, explain the options, and help people understand what can be done before the work begins. Customers consistently appreciate the communication, neatness, reliability, and attention to small details. The finished result matters, but so does how the property is treated along the way.
What stands out most is Zachary’s sense of responsibility. He understands that these projects are often about more than appearance. A raised sidewalk edge, worn entryway, slick pool deck, or uneven patio can affect both safety and how a family uses its home every day. Van Drunen Outdoor Living gives homeowners a thoughtful way to improve those spaces, backed by hands-on experience and a straightforward respect for doing the work well.

After 31 years of use, our sidewalks and steps were desperately in need of a “facelift.” After researching some different options, we happened upon a booth for Van Drunen Outdoor Living at a local Farmer’s Market. We liked the look of their product and had them come out and give us an estimate. We decided to have them proceed with the project. Zachary was extremely courteous, professional, understanding, and responsive through the process. They started and completed the project while we were out of town. Upon our return, we were very excited to see the finished product. We are very pleased and satisfied with the end result. The stone is beautiful and the sidewalks and steps look new again. Thank you to Zachary and crew!
