Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Oct 16, 2016 7:34 pm Hi , Is it better to go with builder for Driveway (or) to go with outside developer after the house is constructed . The builder is quoting around 8000 for a double Garage drive way with Color Concrete . Generally what are the average price for a standard double garage drive way with colored concrete ? The slope of the drive way will be at the street level or 1 brick down the street level , it will not be a big slope drive way . What do you think , is it better to go with external driveway vendor (or) the builder ? Thanks, Regards, SYDSR.

I have checked and most people say it's about 90-100 per sq metre... what will be the size of the driveway? And which suburb? Re: Driveway 4Oct 17, 2016 11:06 am Our builder had quoted us around $11K for a double driveway, alfresco and patio to be done however we're doing after handover for under $6K To my understanding early saw cuts are to control shrinkage cracks, so doing them now would be pointless. Control joints may reduce ugly cracking during periods of soil… 3 9862 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. Thanks 0 10941 |
