About concrete driveways
A concrete driveway involves excavation, forming, a compacted base, reinforcement, then the pour and finish, and it needs proper thickness and jointing to handle vehicle loads without cracking. The base and steel are as important as the concrete. Ask about thickness, reinforcement and the finish before you compare quotes.
Getting quotes in Colly Blue
A good concreter will quote concrete driveways clearly: labour, materials and callout itemised, licence details offered without prompting, and a realistic timeframe for Colly Blue. If a quote is dramatically below the others, ask what it leaves out. There is usually an answer.
Local knowledge counts
A business may list the Tamworth - Gunnedah as a service area without being available for every Colly Blue request. Ask about local experience, timing and the full price if the provider responds.
Quick answers
How much does a concrete driveway cost?+
Plain concrete driveways commonly run $65 to $90 per square metre, with exposed aggregate and decorative finishes closer to $100 to $150, so a standard driveway often lands between $4,000 and $12,000. Site access, excavation and reinforcement drive the price. Get the thickness and steel specified in the quote.
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.
