Concrete is the perfect building material to use in the construction of driveways for a number of reasons. Concrete first and foremost is renowned for its incredible strength and durability. We know that driveways carry large loads sometimes over a tonne in weight, so it is imperative that the material used is strong enough to support the weight. Driveways also have moving weight meaning that vehicles are frequently moving over the area which distributes weight over the surface, this means that the surface underneath can’t have any ‘soft spots’ which over time could become weakened and cause holes or movement of the surface. The beauty of opting for a concrete driveway in Canberra compared to bricks or pavers you can be sure that there will be no movement of the surface due to frequent use of the area. After time bricks and pavers tend to move due to ineffective laying of the materials, hollowing of the sand underneath due to rain or excess water and cracking of the bricks or pavers. In the case of pavers needing replacing it can sometimes mean that the entire area will need to be removed and re-laid in order to achieve a flat surface. 


Why choose concrete for your driveway?

Concrete has been proven to be an excellent driveway construction material and the proof is in the driveways which were poured many years ago in comparison to bricks or pavers. The difference between concrete solutions then and now are the design aspects. Now more than ever we have become very design-conscious when it comes to constructing our homes and businesses. We don’t just use concrete for its durability and strength we also use it as a design element to complement our structures. We offer high-end concrete design solutions for driveways.
 
The most popular product we offer is exposed concrete aggregate. Exposed aggregate is a mix of concrete and multi-coloured rocks and stones. The top layer of the concrete is then carefully removed to slightly expose the stones underneath which gives a high-end luxurious finish. The exposed aggregate can be customised to suit the area, the stones can be selected depending on the desired finish. Pave cut concrete gives you all of the visual benefits of having large paving blocks without the poor resistance to movement. Pave cut is essentially the hand cutting of the laid concrete to give the appearance of a paver. This product is fast becoming a popular choice for homeowners throughout Australia for its durability, aesthetic design and versatility. For the ‘all about durability, not about design’ type of person we recommend your plain concrete driveway. All the perks of the solutions listed above without the frills. Sturdy, durable, reliable and sleek, what more could you ask for? We also offer coloured concreting solutions for homes and businesses throughout Canberra. Our coloured options can be more appealing than standard concrete surfaces and can complement the surrounding area. We offer a huge range of colours to choose from and can provide you with samples.
