Im sorry we got colored concrete now, our builder did ours and not really happy with it. Might get it resurfaced one day. Thats the driveway. luke did the same under the pergola, I think we will pave over it. The colored concrete fades and the paint peels. What your having will look good.

We always get 3 quotes, try servicecentral.com.au you can either break up the bits such as driveway will be a concreter, wall will be brickies. A lot will subcontract otherwise if they only have one type of skill. You'll probably be able to get 3 quotes by the weekend as long as you're flexible and clear on what is needed. Flexible as in happy for you to come and quote early or late etc so it doesn't chew up their money making time. We've saved a stack of money this way and found some tradies we use all the time now from it.

Good thing is they come to you as they want the work and generally know you're going out for 3 quotes. You can also see ratings and pictures of their work online.
