What types of driveways do you install in Canberra?
We specialise in the installation, repair and replacement of concrete driveways, asphalt driveways, and paved driveways across Canberra, Queanbeyan, Jerrabomberra, Googong, Bungendore and surrounds. Whether you're after a modern exposed aggregate finish or a budget-friendly asphalt solution, we’ll help you choose the right driveway for your home.
Do you repair driveways, or only install new ones?
Both. We install new driveways and repair or replace existing ones. The assessment tells us which fix your driveway actually needs.
I'm building a new home and don't have a driveway yet, can you help?
Absolutely. New builds are a big part of what we do. The assessment for a new build is about specifying the right driveway for your site and how you'll use it, so it's done right the first time.
Is the assessment free?
Yes. We come out, look at your site, and give you an honest recommendation in writing at no cost.
How does the assessment decide between repair, OR replace?
It comes down to what's failing. Localised damage can be repaired. A failed sub-base needs replacing. The assessment identifies which, so you pay for the right fix.
Do I need Council approval for a new driveway in queanbeyan?
Driveway installations in QPRC sometimes require approval. If your driveway connects to a public road, you need council approval before any work can begin. The good news? As a licensed QPRC driveway installer, we take care of this process for you.
How much does a new driveway cost in Canberra?
The cost of a new driveway in Canberra depends on the size, materials, and site conditions. On average, prices (excl GST) start from $100 per square metre for concrete, $80 per square metre for asphalt, and $90 for paving. We offer free driveway assessments and will tailor a solution to your budget.
How long does it take to install a driveway?
Most driveway installations in Canberra take between 1 to 5 days, depending on the material and weather conditions. Asphalt driveways are usually the quickest, while concrete and paved driveways may need extra curing or prep time.
Can you replace my old driveway?
Yes! We offer driveway replacement services across Canberra. We'll remove your existing asphalt, concrete or paved surface and replace it with a fresh, durable finish that suits your home and lifestyle.
Will you tell me if I don't need a full replacement?
Yes. Often a repair does the job for a fraction of the cost, and if that's the case, that's what we'll recommend.
How long before I can use my new driveway?
For concrete driveways, we recommend waiting 5–7 days before driving on it. Asphalt driveways can often be used after 24–48 hours, while paved driveways may be ready within 2–3 days depending on the type of pavers and adhesive used.
