Between 1 and 3 days. This is always subject to change and is just a rule of thumb. Remember factors such as weather and the complexity of a job can impact the time it takes to complete. Sometimes concreting jobs with longer necessary curing times can take up to 5 days, but this isn’t often the case.

As a ballpark figure, expect approximately $120–$160 per square metre laid. The final rate depends on the job’s size, site access, preparation, finish and structural requirements. Challenging exposed aggregate work may sit toward the upper end, while a large, straightforward concrete slab may be more economical per square metre.

A few things to consider that may impact the cost of your concreting job on the Gold Coast:

• Is there easy access to your site?
• How many square metres of concrete do you require?
• What materials will you choose?
• How fast do you need a job done/will we require a bigger trades team?
• Is it difficult to get machinery onto the site, for instance, do you have a long and thin driveway?

Concrete slabs need to be thick enough to handle the structural stress they’re put under. Typically, most concrete slabs need to be a minimum of 4 inches thick. This is particularly necessary in high-traffic areas such as driveways that will have heavy vehicles moving and parking regularly. If your slab is for an outdoor dining area in the garden, for example, its thickness may not be as important. Don’t stress however, our experts will analyse the structural requirements of your slab and adjust the thickness accordingly.

Never. All costs that are agreed upon during the quote stage are final and any unforeseeable obstacles such as weather or machinery hiccups will be covered in full by Jason’s Concreting. You will never be out a dollar more than what you agreed to pay before we start laying your concrete—that’s our guarantee.

100%. A large number of our customers hire us to install concrete or exposed aggregate driveways in their homes directly after they’ve purchased it as an investment, or right before they plan on selling as a way to boost the asking price. Picture this—if you were at an auction for a home and it had a brand new, impeccably laid concrete driveway likely to last another 50+ years, would that tick one more box in your mind when considering putting in a bid? It would tick boxes for us that’s for sure!
