I have a big muddle puddle car porch, I want to turn it into cement because everytime after raining my car tyres all mud. But I don't have much budget/cash to do it. Can anyone advise me what is the most economy way to do up my muddy car porch? Just cement it without putting tiles cheaper right? How about concrete imprint method (like the one in photo)?

might need to put rebar to reinforce the concrete, if not it might crack after some time

maybe you can put red clay brick also

The price you need to ask your contractor or seller which method is cheaper

If you just want to diy or temporary solution then brick is less messy and easier

The best permanent solution is rebar with concrete

concrete imprint will be quite expensive also.

maybe a layer of crusher run?
