Concrete Driveway Services in Cairns
Call (07) 4043 7499Concrete Shaped Around How You Use It
Every concrete surface depends on the layers underneath it. Weight passes from the top surface through the steel and the compacted rock base down into the natural ground, and in Cairns that ground might be reactive clay that moves with the wet and dry seasons, or soft alluvial soil that holds water for weeks. If the build-up is wrong, the slab shows it through cracks, sinking and puddles where water should drain.
That is why we design every driveway, path and car park from the bottom up: excavation matched to the soil we find, a properly compacted base, steel sized for the real loads, and a surface with enough bite to keep a sloping drive safe in heavy tropical rain. Choose a service below, or describe what is going on and we will recommend the right one.
