Your Concreting Questions Answered
Once poured, how soon can I walk on my new concrete slab?
This depends on various factors, including weather conditions, slab depth and concrete texture. As a general rule, it’s best not to walk on your new slab for at least two days while it hardens completely.
Once poured, how soon can I drive on my new concrete driveway?
Factors such as weather conditions, slab depth, and texture play a role. Typically, you avoid driving any cars on your new driveway for two to three weeks to allow the concrete to reach full integrity. Heavier vehicles like large 4WDs, caravans and trucks should remain off the driveway for about four weeks.
What is the difference between plain and coloured concrete?
Plain concrete is a cost-effective option, providing a classic, light grey finish. Coloured concrete, achieved either through a full colour tint in the mix or a pigmented powder hardener applied on site, offers a vibrant appearance. Coloured concrete requires a sealer applied around two weeks after pouring.
How often should I seal my concrete?
Plain concrete generally does not require ongoing maintenance. Coloured concrete, however, should be resealed with a colour sealer every 1-2 years, depending on usage and location.
Do I need Council approval for my new concrete driveway?
Generally, a new or altered driveway will need Council approval, however local Council requirements may vary. We handle the council application, inspection, and approval process for you, with the cost included in your quotation.
Will I need a concrete pump for my job?
A concrete pump is often needed for sites with poor access or larger volumes. We assess the best option for your project and factor it into your quotation, considering alternative costs like concrete truck wait times and extra labour.
Can you install decorative cuts into my concrete?
Absolutely! Decorative cuts, especially diamond cuts, are a popular choice for creating visually appealing patterns while implementing necessary expansion joints to minimise cracking.
