FAQs

Good questions

How much does a concrete driveway cost in Palmerston North?

Size, access, ground preparation and finish all move the price, so anyone quoting over the phone is guessing. We come out, measure, and give you a firm written price — free, no obligation, usually within 48 hours of your call.

How long does a concrete job take?

Most driveways take two to four days from dig-out to pour. Paths and steps are usually one to two days. You get the schedule up front and we stick to it.

Do you remove the old concrete?

Yes. Breaking out and carting away the old surface is part of the job, and it is included in the quote. You do not need to arrange a skip or a truck.

When can I walk and drive on new concrete?

You can walk on it after 24 to 48 hours and drive on it after seven days. We leave markers and tell you exactly when yours is ready.

Do I need council consent for a new driveway?

If you are forming a new vehicle crossing onto the road, Palmerston North City Council needs to approve it. We handle that process for you as part of the job.

What is the best concrete finish for a driveway?

Plain broom finish is the most economical and wears extremely well. Exposed aggregate looks the sharpest and hides marks best, which is why it suits new builds. Coloured and cut-and-sealed sit between the two. We will show you examples at the quote.

Will my new concrete crack?

All concrete moves. The job of a good concreter is to control where it happens — correct sub-base, the right reinforcing, saw-cut control joints in the right places and proper curing. Done right, cracking stays in the joints where you do not notice it.

Do you take on small jobs?

Yes. A short path to the clothesline or a couple of front steps gets the same care as a full driveway. No job is too small to quote.

Which areas do you cover?

All of Palmerston North and the wider Manawatū, including Ashhurst, Bunnythorpe, Feilding, Longburn and Linton.

Is the on-site quote really free?

Completely. We measure, talk through the options and leave you a written price. If it is not right for you, no hard feelings.
