EXPOSED AGGREGATE CONCRETE IN BRISBANE

If you’re looking for a type of concrete driveway that will last you for a long time, you might want to consider using exposed aggregates. Exposed aggregate concrete driveways are best known for its long-lasting nature, and the gorgeous finishes that can be achieved.

All you need to do is to select an aggregate that matches or compliments your dwelling and existing landscaping colours.

An exposed aggregate driveway, footpath, patio, or entertainment area will look amazing when done correctly. However, if it is not done properly, you might end up with a finished product that doesn’t meet your expectation, and you’ll have to stick with it for a long time.

Our company has worked with exposed aggregate for a long time. We know what makes a great job and what does not, and we are familiar with the things we will have to avoid in order to achieve only the best results. We can supply a concrete colour chart and concrete resurfacing pattern charts to help you choose the pattern, colours, and design that will best suit your preferences. We offer the best prices and high-quality workmanship to ensure customer satisfaction.

Usually, an inspection of the job site is needed prior to providing a quote for your project. However, you can call us and we will help you get a rough estimate for your exposed aggregate project. You will be able to see a firm quote once the site inspection has been done.

Here we have one type of exposed aggregate mix however the second photo has an Indian ink oxide base (which is added to the mix at the time of batching from the plant). The first photo has the regular plain concrete base but as you can see by adding the darker base it really pops the colours. This is a more decorative finish but does come with a higher price tag.

We used Joe from ‘Versatile Concrete and Landscape’ for 2 large jobs, a driveway and a concrete floor for our garage. Both jobs were completed in a timely manner, Joe and his team were professional and friendly. I would definitely recommend Joe and his team for all your concrete and landscaping needs.

Versatile Concrete were very professional and easy to work with. Created a fantastic result for our driveway and letterbox. Would recommend them for any concreting work.

The job was completed on time, on budget and exactly as designed.
