Browse Forums Owner Builder Forum 1 Feb 24, 2018 12:10 pm Hi Everyone, Can someone recommend a concreter in Sydney, who will be able to quote and perform the following jobs around mid-April or May: - prepare formwork and steelwork, arrange pour and finishing for ~265 sq m of reinforced rafted slab with footings and 8 meters of 1 m high drop edge beam - prepare formwork and steelwork, arrange pour and finishing for multiple inside and outside staircases with total area of ~15 sq m and 45 total risers - prepare formwork and steelwork, arrange pour and finishing for two reinforced suspended slabs, totalling ~160 sq m - install and pour ~100 sq m of Dincel retaining walls I will be able to arrange/provide concrete, steel reinforcements (mesh, keyjoints, dowels, dowel serts, expansion joints), plastic and chairs myself. Also, how much I should be expecting to pay for this work (per sq m) these days? Thanks Re: Concreter in Sydney area 2Jan 15, 2019 6:47 am How did you go with this mate? Who did you end up using? I am about to embark on the same - just after some decend people to get quotes from (if anyone is out there and can reccomend) - I am in upper north shore sydney. Re: Concreter in Sydney area 5Jan 19, 2023 10:51 am alexp79 My build is got a bit delayed, so not yet. I have a good concreter recommended by friends and planning to try him out next month. If he proves to be good, I will be able to recommend him to you. Did you go ahead with the concreter. Would you recommend him? Re: Concreter in Sydney area 7Apr 29, 2023 11:33 pm alexp79 If he proves to be good, I will be able to recommend him to you. Does 'no reply', mean no recommendation because he wasn't good ? I'm wondering about the concreters too, in Sydney. Primarily for a ~3m wide driveway, for about 60+ metres, and some more for extension of this driveway, into a car turning / parking bay (maybe 15m x 5m area) Re: Concreter in Sydney area 8Apr 30, 2023 1:40 am Yes, that one was really not good and I had to redo some of my footings. This is why I am not recommending. The ones I was using after them were Pumpco Group and they were fairly okay. I am quite sure Simeon @Ashington Homes can provide some more prominent recommendations.

Speak to owner Brad, good guy (was willing to roll with exact scope I wanted). Re: Concreter in Sydney area 11May 01, 2023 12:33 am arab3455 If it helps, I ended up using kookaburra concrete. Speak to owner Brad, good guy (was willing to roll with exact scope I wanted). Thank you for recommending. Also, do you have any ideas of costs, as in, what's a ballpark estimate for a total area of 250 sqm for driveway access ? Re: Concreter in Sydney area 12May 01, 2023 9:42 am Just checked the list of the forum's concreting pros and found it strange that there are numerous from Melbourne but few from anywhere else. You could take a walk (or a bike ride) around your local area one Sunday to look for new driveways and do some door knocking. Most persons are forthcoming.. Ask then check how long any concreter you talk to has been in business and addresses of their most recent work. 3in1 Supadiverta. Rainwater Harvesting Best Practice using syphonic drainage.
