In short

Sunshine Coast Concrete Services designs and builds concrete driveways across the Sunshine Coast, QLD. A driveway is excavated, formed, reinforced with mesh sized to its load, poured, then finished in plain grey, oxide colour, stencil or stamped pattern and sealed. A typical residential driveway takes two to four days on site plus curing. On-site quotes are free.

01 — Overview

What goes into a concrete driveway

Your driveway is the first thing anyone sees. We set out, form up, pour and finish driveways right across the Sunshine Coast — from a straight single strip to a curved double with a turning circle. Every job is excavated and prepared properly, reinforced to suit the loads it will carry, and finished in the colour and pattern you choose.

Not sure whether to go plain, stencilled or stamped? We'll bring the colour chart and pattern samples to the quote so you can see the options against your own house before you commit to anything.

Questions

Driveway questions, answered

More in the concreting FAQ and guides.

How long does a new concrete driveway take?

Most residential driveways take 2 to 4 days on site across preparation, pour and finishing. Light vehicles can usually drive on it after about 7 days, and the concrete reaches its design strength at around 28 days. See curing & care.

How thick should a concrete driveway be?

A driveway for cars is commonly 100 mm thick with steel reinforcing mesh on a compacted base. Driveways for caravans, boats or trucks need more thickness and heavier reinforcement. Your quote states the spec for your job — see the driveway thickness guide.

Do I need council approval for a driveway?

Work on your own land usually does not, but the crossover between your boundary and the road sits in the road reserve and is controlled by Sunshine Coast Council. Check the council’s current requirements before work starts; we can talk you through it at the quote.

How much does a concrete driveway cost?

The price depends on location, the finish you choose and site access, along with the area, whether an old driveway has to come out and how much preparation the ground needs. We measure up on site and give you a free written quote.
