Concrete Helpful Hints
Envisage… Design… Build… Admire.
Envisage
Think about what you want your project to look like at completion.
If you are planning to use an exposed aggregate concrete, for example for a driveway, look at the colour scheme of your house and the surrounding houses for ideas.
Design
Once you know your colour scheme, talk to your concrete placer to get the measurements of the concrete slab you will be placing.
If you are a DIY handyman you can input your measurements into the calculator here, give our sales team a call on 1300 266 273 (1300 CONCRETE) or simply use the ‘get a quote’ button and someone will be in contact with you.
Build
Make sure all of your formwork is complete before you confirm your concrete.
Some projects to consider undertaking include:
- Concrete Driveways
- Water Tank Concrete Slabs
- Concrete Exposed Carports
- Concrete Patios
- Shed Slabs
- Concrete Paths
Your local council will be able to give you the requirements for your particular job.
Admire
Your concreting is done and you can sit back and admire your hard work.
Remember; if you want the colours of exposed aggregate to stay prominent you will need to use a sealant. This will also help to prevent staining on driveways and patios.
