Concreting Services in Essendon

Driveways Essendon

Driveways in Essendon must accommodate narrow heritage streetscapes, shared laneways, and sloping frontages. We provide concrete driveway solutions that respect council constraints and architectural themes. From crisp broom finishes to subtle coloured blends that match period homes, we aim for both form and function.

Pathways Essendon

Older homes in Essendon often lack proper footpaths between key areas like side entries and rear laneways. We install concrete paths that provide clean, straight access while integrating with period fences, gates, and landscaping. Paths are built with appropriate drainage and non-slip textures to suit year-round use.

Alfrescos and Patios Essendon

Essendon’s love for outdoor entertaining is reflected in the popularity of rear patios and verandas. We install solid alfresco slabs that withstand foot traffic and Melbourne’s changing weather, with surface options like swirl trowel finishes and exposed aggregate for added texture and visual appeal.

Pool Surrounds Essendon

Space around pools in Essendon can be limited due to older lot layouts, but we work around fencing and boundaries to create clean, compliant surrounds. Our concrete is sealed for moisture protection and finished to offer slip-resistance while staying visually aligned with the rest of the property.

Benchtops and Seats Essendon

Our custom concrete seats and benches are popular in both private and semi-public courtyards, especially where owners are blending old with new. We pour seamless benches and cast freestanding elements that match the architectural tone of Essendon’s established homes.

Shed Slabs Essendon

Essendon’s dense layout and laneway access can make shed slab work tricky — but we’re up to the task. We prep and pour slabs for garden sheds, bike storage, and backyard studios, ensuring structural reliability on tighter suburban blocks.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you work on properties with limited access?

Yes. Many Essendon properties have laneway-only or tight side access. We bring in small equipment and mix on-site where needed to get the job done.

Can I have a traditional finish that suits a heritage home?

Absolutely. We offer natural grey concrete and smooth trowel finishes that blend well with Victorian and Edwardian properties.

What’s the difference between sealed and unsealed concrete?

Sealing protects the surface from moisture and staining. For exposed areas or driveways, we recommend sealing for longer life and easier cleaning.

How soon can we use the new driveway?

You can usually walk on it within 24 hours and drive on it after 5 to 7 days, depending on the weather and concrete mix used.

Do you pour on steep blocks or sloping ground?

Yes, we use levelling equipment and formwork systems to ensure stability, even on difficult blocks common in Essendon’s hillier streets.
