Frequently Asked
Questions
How much does a concrete driveway cost in Australia?
The cost of a concrete driveway depends on the size, location, and type of finish you choose. Most concrete driveway prices are calculated per square metre.
On average, pricing can vary based on:
- Plain concrete driveway cost
- Exposed aggregate driveway cost
- Site preparation and excavation work
- Removal of old concrete or existing surface
Because every property is different, the most accurate way to know the cost is to request a concrete driveway quote based on your site.
What is the best concrete finish for a driveway?
The best concrete driveway finish depends on your budget, home style, and how you want the driveway to look and perform.
Common concrete finishes include:
- Plain concrete driveway – affordable, simple, and durable
- Exposed aggregate concrete driveway – modern, textured, and slip-resistant
- Coloured concrete driveway – adds style and improves street appeal
Many homeowners choose exposed aggregate driveways because they are strong, low-maintenance, and visually appealing.
Not sure which concrete finish to choose? Paul’s Concreting can recommend the best option for your home.
How long does concrete take to dry or cure?
A newly installed concrete driveway or slab needs time to dry and fully cure.
Typical curing times:
- 24-48 hours – safe to walk on concrete
- 7 days – light vehicles can usually use the driveway
- 28 days – full concrete curing time for maximum strength
Weather conditions like heat and rain can affect concrete drying time.
Tip: Avoid heavy vehicles or sharp turning on new concrete during the curing period.
What should I ask a concreter before hiring?
Before hiring a concreter, it’s important to ask the right questions to make sure you’re choosing a reliable contractor.
Key questions to ask:
- Do you specialise in concrete driveways and residential concreting?
- What is included in the concrete installation process?
- Do you offer exposed aggregate and plain concrete options?
- How long will the concreting job take?
- Is the quote fixed or can costs change?
- Do you have experience with similar concrete projects?
- What preparation work is included before pouring concrete?
A professional local concreter should always provide clear pricing, timelines, and process details.
Why does a concrete driveway crack?
A cracked concrete driveway can happen for several reasons. Some cracking is normal over time, but major cracks usually come from installation or ground issues.
Common causes of concrete cracking:
- Poor base preparation before pouring concrete
- Lack of control joints in the concrete slab
- Heavy loads during early concrete curing
- Ground movement or soil shifting
- Incorrect concrete mix or installation method
Small hairline cracks can appear naturally, but proper installation reduces the risk of major damage.
At Paul’s Concreting, we use proper preparation and reinforcement to help prevent concrete driveway cracking.
