Residential Concrete
Exposed Aggregate Driveways
What we do:
Slip resistant, textured finish
Stones and colours matched to your home
Built to handle vehicles and weather
Exposed aggregate gives a natural, hard wearing surface with strong traction. We prepare a compacted sub base, set correct falls for drainage and place edging for neat lines. During the pour we use selected aggregates, then wash to reveal the stone for a consistent texture. Control joints help manage cracking. A high quality sealer protects the surface, deepens colour and makes cleaning easy, keeping your driveway sharp and long lasting.
Stamped Patios & Pathways
What we do:
Custom sizes and layouts
Low maintenance finishes
Steps, paths and edges to suit
A well designed patio changes how you use your outdoor space. We plan the layout around sun, shelter and access, then prepare a stable base and set tidy formwork. Choose smooth, broomed, coloured or exposed finishes, with saw cut patterns or borders if you want a feature. We set gentle falls for drainage, add slip resistance where needed and seal for easy care. The result is a durable, comfortable area for dining, relaxing and everyday living.
Decorative Concrete
What we do:
- Coloured, exposed or patterned options
- Modern textures and feature borders
Quality sealing for long life
Decorative concrete lifts any outdoor area. Pick oxide colours, seeded aggregates, light surface exposure or crisp saw cut grids for a modern look. We can add bands or contrasting borders to frame paths and patios. Mix design, placement and finishing are controlled for even colour and texture. After curing we apply a suitable sealer to protect against weather, UV and staining. You get a strong, great looking surface that stays that way with simple upkeep.
Pool Surrounds
What we do:
Slip resistant finishes for wet zones
Weather tough concrete that lasts
Colours and textures to match your pool
Pool areas need grip, comfort and tidy water control. We form surrounds with safe textures like broomed or light exposed finishes, and set precise falls away from the pool to manage splashes. Expansion joints, coping interfaces and drainage channels are detailed for movement and easy cleaning. Sealers suited to chlorine and salt help resist marking and reduce heat underfoot. The result is a durable surround that looks right, feels safe and stands up to New Zealand conditions.
RibRaft Concrete Foundations
What we do:
Accurate set out and pours to plan
Strong, insulated base for new builds
Smooth coordination with builders and engineers
A strong home starts with a strong base. RibRaft slabs use pods, steel and concrete to create a stiff, thermally efficient foundation that reduces ground movement and cold bridging. We handle site prep, pod layout, steel placement and service penetrations, then pour to engineering standards with strict level checks and finish quality. Control joints, edge thickenings and curing are completed to spec, giving your build a reliable start and an even floor ready for framing.

Most Frequently
Asked questions
You can walk on it after 24 hours, but it takes 7 days before it’s strong enough for vehicles. Full strength comes at 28 days.
We’ll get close, but concrete changes shade as it ages. We can discuss staining or coloring options if it needs to match exactly.
Yes, but we avoid pouring if frost is forecast. Cold weather slows curing, so we plan around the forecast.
We can point you in the right direction, but permits are usually the homeowner’s or builder’s responsibility.
Sometimes, if the base is solid. We’ll need to check it first. Often starting fresh is more reliable long-term.
We use the right mix for the job and don’t rush the finish. Good concrete isn’t complicated, just takes the right people and enough time.
