Browse Forums Paving & Concreting 1 May 03, 2016 3:56 pm Hi all, We have been quoted approx. $5-6k from Henley for our driveway, letterbox and clothes line. However, this is just the starting price and due to our estate requirements we can't have a standard grey driveway. It must be coloured or agrevated concrete. So i'm expecting it to come up to around 8k; would this be a reasonable assumption? I've been told by many people that it would be cheaper to do it all seperately after handover, but i can't get any quotes for the driveway until the house is built, so i'm a bit torn on what to do... Would love any feedback/suggestions anyone may have. Did you do the driveway through your builder or after?

I hope this helps Hi all I need a guidance on how far I need to space expansion joints in the concrete driveway and its type (keyway/foam.) Contraction joints are at 3m max for a 125 slab.
