    Strong, durable plain concrete forms the foundation of our standard estate driveways, delivering reliable performance for decades. Every installation is fully compliant with developer covenants and Logan City Council standards, eliminating approval delays and ensuring your driveway meets all regulatory requirements. This option is ideal for first-home buyers on a budget who need quality construction without compromising on structural integrity or longevity.

    Decorative Driveways

    Transform your entrance with exposed aggregate finishes that replicate the sophisticated display home look admired throughout Flagstone’s premium estates. Our range of coloured finishes delivers modern appeal with contemporary tones matching your home’s architectural style and colour palette.

    • Guaranteeing installations meet Logan City Council standards

    This expertise means you avoid costly mistakes, delays, or the stress of having to modify non-compliant work after installation.

    Frequently Asked Questions About Concrete Services

    Exposed aggregate is the most popular finish for Flagstone driveways because it combines durability with aesthetic appeal. The textured surface provides excellent traction during Logan’s wet season, and the varied stone colors mask minor staining or wear. Exposed aggregate also stays cooler underfoot during Queensland summers compared to plain concrete. For modern estates, we recommend natural stone blends in cream, tan, or grey tones that complement contemporary home designs while resisting UV fading. Proper sealing every 2-3 years maintains the finish’s appearance and weather resistance.

    Most Flagstone estates require approval for driveway materials, colours, and design before installation. We handle this process by reviewing your estate covenants during the quoting phase and ensuring our proposed design meets all requirements. We provide necessary documentation including material specifications, colour samples, and drainage plans for estate management approval. This proactive approach prevents delays and ensures your driveway complies with both estate covenants and Logan City Council regulations. In our experience, pre-approved designs receive faster approval from estate managers.

    Yes, we offer custom colour matching to complement your home’s exterior palette. During your consultation, we bring colour samples and can recommend finishes that coordinate with your roof, facade, and landscaping choices. For new builds, we often work from your builder’s colour schedule to ensure perfect harmony. Keep in mind that exposed aggregate offers more colour variation and natural appearance compared to coloured concrete, which provides more uniform tones. We’ll explain the pros and cons of each option based on your home’s style and your aesthetic preferences.

    Flagstone concrete driveways require minimal maintenance with proper installation and sealing. We recommend: pressure washing twice yearly to remove dirt and debris; resealing every 2-3 years to protect against staining and weather damage; promptly cleaning oil or chemical spills; avoiding harsh de-icing chemicals or acids; and addressing any cracks quickly to prevent water penetration. Queensland’s climate is relatively gentle on concrete compared to freeze-thaw regions, so your driveway should perform well for 20-30+ years with basic care. We provide detailed maintenance guidelines with every installation and offer professional resealing services.
