Default Smoothing/Sanding concrete on patio.

Now the patio looks good, but I see that he "broomed" it at the end,
so the patio is not "smooth". I had not expected this and I guess I
was hoping for a smooth finish (as in a garage floor).

Sideswalks, driveways, and patios are normally broomed. Smooth cement
can get really slippery when wet. It would most likely be a building
code violation and a huge liability risk for the contractor to leave it
smooth.
