Driveway Ideas
We have poured countless combinations of driveway styles and textures throughout the course of our 25+ years of building concrete driveways. We stay current on industry trends and advise our clients on the finest finishes for their requirements and budget.
Listed here are the majority of our most popular finishes, along with brief explanations of each. Additionally, we have a projects section that discusses the driveway procedure in greater detail for various driveway projects. These are all our projects from start to finish.
We Build Quailty Driveways
Concrete Demolition
We are frequently contacted to remove an old driveway. We are fully equipped to demolish and remove concrete driveways, transport them to a recycling centre, and repurpose them as a new base for future concrete construction. Rather than hiring a separate concrete demolition contractor, save money and time by letting us do everything.
Forming The Driveway
Because we want our driveways to last the test of time, we only use materials of the highest quality. As a starting point, we lay down a layer of gravel at least four inches deep. Because we only ever utilise rebar and never mesh, your driveway will remain intact even if a crack appears in it. We only ever use premium air entrained concrete mixtures in our work. To further strengthen your driveway , we recommend applying one of our driveway sealers.
Broom Finish
In most cases, a broom finish driveway is the most frequent type of driveway we pour. Before the final set is completed, a horsehair brush is used to obtain this finish. For our winter months, the broom finish concrete driveway is extremely slip resistant. If desired, an integral colour can be applied. The use of hand cuts in common with a broom finish driveway , saw cutting broom finish is now very common too.
Stamped Concrete
Stamped Concrete Pattern driveways are available in a wide variety of designs and colours. Stamped concrete resembles stone, slate, and wood. Numerous colours are available to achieve high-quality, realistic effects. Each stamped concrete driveway is customized to your needs. When stamped concrete is done, it is sealed to protect it from the weather and to optimize its beauty. In the winter, attention should be used to avoid salting these driveways; they are the most expensive form of driveway and should be maintained.
A Modern Driveway Style
A contemporary driveway may contain spaces between the slabs to allow for grass growth, or it may have stones or even artificial grass as well. A contemporary concrete driveway can also have a smooth surface with regularly spaced saw cuts. The modern driveway finish can be lightly textured with an acid wash, a mild sandblast, or a light wash. For more information on modern style driveways, please visit our driveways section.
Acid Stain Driveways
Acid Stain Concrete Driveways are genuinely unique. After about 30 days, an acid stain is sprayed to the concrete driveway. Driveways that have been acid colored should be clear of spills and other stains; oil stains, for example, will affect the quality of subsequent acid staining. Each time, the acid stains react with the concrete, it produces a one-of-a-kind work of art. Acid-stained concrete driveways have a warm earthy hue and are often finished with a high gloss sealant.
Exposed Aggregate Driveways
Exposed aggregate is a common choice for decorative concrete driveways in the city. The exposed rock can be sealed to create a lovely aesthetic surface while also protecting it from the damp and cold weather of winter. Winter upkeep is essential even if the slab has already been exposed. Exposed Aggregate Concrete driveways can be painted to match the house’s colour scheme or to provide a striking contrast.
Float Finish Driveways
A float finish concrete driveway with borders costs somewhat more than a conventional float finish driveway. Borders can be made out of any of our other finishes and coloured if desired. Borders might be monolithic or poured separately, depending on the size and design. The driveway should be sealed with concrete sealer, as is the case with all of our concrete.
Float Finish with A Border
A float finish concrete driveway with borders costs somewhat more than a conventional float finish driveway. Borders can be made out of any of our other finishes and coloured if desired. Borders might be monolithic or poured separately, depending on the size and design. The driveway should be sealed with concrete sealer, as is the case with all of our concrete.
Light Sandblast Driveways
The Concrete Driveway with a Light Sandblast is created by sandblasting or lightly washing the surface. If sandblasting is not feasible, a mild sandblast effect can be obtained by power washing the driveway. We have depth-controlled concrete surface retarders for light washes. This lightly washed driveway has a shallow retardation depth, revealing only the sand in the concrete matrix; this concrete finish contains no aggregate.
Wave Broom Finish Concrete
The wave broom driveway finish is quite similar to a standard broom finish, except that the broom is dragged up and down on each pass, producing a wave pattern. This concrete driveway has all of the benefits associated with a classic broom finish driveway. Once widespread, the wave finish is now considered a classic style.
Decorative Concrete Combinations
Concrete driveway combinations provide all of the above in almost any combination and design. The driveway’s design is just as critical as the finishing. The objective is to create the ideal marriage between the two. The possibilities for colours are endless, and the patterns and finishes are limited only by your creativity. Each decorative concrete driveway we construct is unique to the needs of the client.
Exposed Aggregate with Borders
Exposed aggregate concrete driveways are incredibly popular in a wide variety of custom residences. Borders may be any of the finishes above or below, as well as natural stone or brick mortared borders; we pour a sunken rough slab border for those mortared alternatives. Combinations with exposed aggregate and border are one of the most costly driveway alternatives. Spray paint is often used and provides a good visual representation of border design alternatives prior to forming.
Stamped Concrete and Borders
Stamped concrete driveways with borders are another high-end form of concrete driveway that may be obtained. When these two objects are mixed, there are a variety of possible combinations and outcomes. It is possible to utilise either integral or topical colour hardeners. Natural rock and stone effects may be created using up to eight distinct colours, which allows for the development of incredibly realistic rock and stone effects. Borders are poured either before or after the main body of the concrete, depending on the desired finish.
Concrete Sealing
When it comes to concrete construction, driveways are the most often damaged. Keep your driveway clear of salt and other ice melt materials in order to prevent any harm. Please don’t allow your automobile leak these corrosive chemicals and oil on your new driveway, since the majority of the stains will be difficult or impossible to clean. Regular application of sealer will keep your driveway protected and looking good for many years to come. All of our clients have benefit to our maintenance services, which help to ensure the long-term durability of their investment.
