About coloured and stamped concrete
Decorative concrete includes coloured, stencilled and stamped finishes that mimic pavers, tiles or stone at lower cost than the real material. Sealing protects the colour and finish over time. Ask how often it needs resealing and whether the first seal is included.
Getting quotes in Burnside
For coloured and stamped concrete, ask each concreter two things up front: the all-inclusive price, and how soon they can attend Burnside. If the job is not urgent, saying so can shave real money off the quote, since operators can slot you into an existing Eastern Suburbs run.
Local knowledge counts
Burnside sits in the Eastern Suburbs area, which means several concreters are normally within a short drive. Mention your suburb when you enquire so travel is built into the price from the start rather than appearing on the invoice later.
Quick answers
How thick should a concrete driveway be?+
A residential driveway is typically 100mm thick with reinforcement, and thicker where heavier vehicles are involved. Thickness, a compacted base and steel reinforcement are what stop a driveway cracking under load. Be wary of a cheap quote that skimps on base preparation or steel.
How long before I can use new concrete?+
You can usually walk on new concrete after 24 to 48 hours, but wait about seven days before driving on a new driveway and around 28 days for it to reach full strength. Rushing vehicle traffic onto fresh concrete is a common cause of early cracking.
Do I need council approval for concreting?+
Paths and driveways on private land often do not need approval, but slabs for structures, work in easements, and changes to stormwater or crossovers can require council or water-authority approval. Ask your concreter to confirm before pouring, since removing non-compliant work is expensive.
