Concreting Adelaide is a highly specialised area of the building industry. It requires a high level of knowledge about building compliances, concrete mixes, equipment, and techniques.
A concreting contractor can help you with your concrete house slab, driveway, paving and other construction needs. They can also provide various decorative options, including coloured, polished, spray-on and stencilled concrete.
Reinforced Concrete
Concrete is a durable construction material that can be used in many ways. For example, it can be used to construct roads that can withstand heavy traffic, footpaths, driveways, and foundations for buildings.
Reinforced concrete is a composite material that combines concrete with steel or other materials to enhance its tensile strength and flexibility. It is well-suited for constructing multistory buildings’ beams, columns, floors, and walls.
A reinforced concrete joist floor is built on a flat slab with transverse bars and a system of joist chairs that support the ends of the bar in each direction. The joist chairs are usually fitted with a shear sleeve to resist axial shear. In addition, the shear sleeve is sometimes coated with epoxy to prevent reinforcement corrosion.
Concrete Driveways
Concrete driveways provide a safe and durable surface to park your car. They are also a great addition to your property’s value. They are trendy and come in various colours and designs to suit your style.

They can even help you with a house slab, concrete cutting or concreting for swimming pools. They can also do kerbing and concreting for sheds and garages. They will ensure that your concrete is of high quality and looks good.
Pattern Pave
Pattern pavement is a popular choice for verandahs. It provides the attractive aesthetic of pavers without the lifting and separation that can occur between them and allows for a much larger area to be covered at a lower cost.
It is also an excellent choice for driveways as it offers the durability of concrete with the aesthetically pleasing look of pavers. It comes in various colours and finishes and can be laid with extra strength if large trucks drive on it.
Exposed aggregate is an earthy, textural finish that pairs beautifully with modern and heritage homes. It can be laid in several ways, including herringbone, basket weave, running bond or stack bonded patterns, and circular paving designs.
Exposed Aggregate
This decorative concrete finish exposes the aggregate used in cement to create a challenging and attractive surface. It is popular in large outdoor areas such as driveways, al frescos, pool surrounds, and commercial spaces like shopping centres.
Exposed aggregate is arduous and can withstand heavy foot traffic. It also withstands harsh weather conditions and can easily be sealed to protect it from damage. This type of concrete does not need much maintenance and can stay looking new for years to come.
This type of concrete is easy to install and requires no specialised tools. It is less expensive than other concrete finishes and can be applied to existing floors. It is also an excellent option for those who want to add a splash of style to their home without breaking the bank.
Honed
Concrete is one of the most versatile building materials around; it can be processed in different ways to create a variety of sophisticated finishes. This is particularly evident in the concrete polishing industry, where the incredibly smooth, glass-like surfaces reflect light magically. Pour& Polish is a small, family-owned business offering Adelaide homeowners and commercial spaces quality polished concrete options since 2014.
They specialise in honed aggregate finishes, which expose a range of sparkling stone aggregates to produce a look that suits all modes of architecture; slate blue and charcoal look great with red-brick homes, while light neutral tones complement brown-brick facades. Their honed aggregate looks are also famous for outdoor areas prone to rain, like patios and driveways.
