We build strong, long-lasting concrete driveways for homes and businesses across Canberra. Get in touch today for a free, no-obligation quote.

If you want to put in a new concrete driveway in Canberra or improve an old one, you’re in the right spot. At Driveways Canberra, we focus on all kinds of concrete driveways. This can be a simple, clean design or a more decorative choice. Our local team has years of practice in making strong, long-lasting driveways all over the ACT area. We know the soil and understand the weather here. We take pride in creating driveways that not only last but also increase the value of your home.

Why Concrete Driveways Are a Smart Choice

Concrete is a popular choice for homeowners in Canberra for several good reasons:

  • Durability: Concrete driveways can last for 20 to 30 years or more if taken care of properly.
  • Low Maintenance: You won’t need to rake or seal them often like with gravel or asphalt. Just clean and reseal it every few years.
  • Customisable Look: You can pick from plain, colored, or textured finishes to match your home.
  • Weather Tough: Concrete stands strong through our hot summers and cool, wet winters.

It is an investment that lasts a long time. It offers both usefulness and a nice look at the front.

Our Concrete Driveway Services

We manage each step of the job from beginning to end.

Site Inspection and Preparation

Before we start working, we come out and look at your site carefully. The soil in Canberra can be very different in each suburb, so we check:

  • The way water drains and the slope.
  • The type of soil and how packed it is.
  • Getting to the equipment and materials.

We will prepare the area by removing plants, packing the base, and putting down a strong foundation. The base is very important — without it, even the best concrete will not last. We will ensure the surface is shaped correctly to lead water away from your home and stop pools from forming.

Formwork and Reinforcement

We install strong wood or tough materials to shape the driveway. This helps us create sharp, clean edges. Next, we add steel wire or bars to make the concrete stronger. This is very important if your driveway will hold heavy cars or trailers.

Concrete Pouring and Finishing

We only use high-quality concrete that can support homes and light business traffic. We spread it evenly, smooth it out with screeds, and make it feel and look like you prefer. You can choose from:

  • Plain concrete gives a clean and smooth look.
  • Coloured concrete is mixed with pigments for a lasting color.
  • Stamped concrete creates decorative patterns that look like stone or tile.
  • Exposed aggregate offers a textural feel and helps prevent slipping.

Once the concrete hardens, we cut joints to stop cracking. We also put on a sealer if it is needed.

Types of Concrete Driveways We Offer

We have created all types of concrete driveways you can imagine.

  • Straight driveways work well for narrow lots.
  • Curved driveways are great for corner properties.
  • Sloped driveways have strong support for lasting use.
  • Dual-lane driveways fit larger houses or duplexes.

No matter if your space is small or large, flat or on a slope, we will design the shape and look to fit your property and your needs.

Ongoing Care and Maintenance

We can give you tips and services to help you make the best use of your new concrete driveway.
