Does it make any difference in price whether the stamping is horizontal or vertical? Is the going rate around $10.00 a square foot? I have a quote from a great company that quarantees their work...but it is coming in at more than $15.00 a square foot. My driveway is only about 800 square feet and my patio area is around 250 square feet. Is this the problem? Are they charging more because it's a small job? Or, does it make any difference in price that I'm asking for two different patterns? I need to have an answer tomorrow for my contractor. My contractor won't let me contact the sub on this. . . That's why I'm asking you for help!

Concrete stamping is a scam and priced on what they think you are willing to pay.
Look at their previous work and have your own detailed written contract you can take to court for them to sign and anticipate taking them to court. THEN start negotiating a price. Start at about 50% of their quote for the basic features only and hold your ground. Give up a little here and there in trade for more features.
