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 Stratford
A good concreter will quote coloured and stamped concrete clearly: labour, materials and callout itemised, licence details offered without prompting, and a realistic timeframe for Stratford. If a quote is dramatically below the others, ask what it leaves out. There is usually an answer.

Quick answers
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.
Why does concrete crack?+
Some fine hairline cracking is normal as concrete cures, but larger cracks usually come from a poor base, missing or badly placed reinforcement, no control joints, or loading it too early. A properly prepared and jointed slab minimises cracking. Control joints are placed to make any cracking follow a straight, hidden line.
