Is there anything I can ask him to make it smoother? Is it possible at
all? Is it very expensive? The concrete patio is about 16x30 sq.ft.

As the old saying goes, be careful what you wish for, you may get it.

My first house here in AZ had a smooooooth finish on the patio.
Combine that smooth finish with a little rain or water from the pool
and some sandals with a fairly smooth sole, and you're going skating!
Fell on my butt more than once.

Just something to consider, your mileage may vary.



It rains in Arizona?

That reminds me of something I heard a salesman tell a lady at the
landscaping supply store. She bought some cacti and was asking about how
often she should water them. He gave her a bunch of details about cactus
and how it needs very little water, etc. which she was just not
understanding. He finally told her this: "Order a subscription to the
Phoenix Sun Times. Whenever it says it rained, water the cactus."


there hasn't ever been a phoenix sun times newspaper.
