Types of Concrete Driveways We Install in Logan

Plain Concrete Driveways
Plain concrete driveways are the most cost-effective option for Logan homeowners. A well-finished plain concrete driveway gives you a clean, professional look that complements any home style. We pour residential driveways at 100mm thickness with steel mesh reinforcement. This isn’t just industry standard – it’s what works in Logan’s conditions.

Decorative Concrete Options
Decorative concrete transforms your driveway into a feature that enhances your entire property. Stamped concrete lets you achieve the look of slate, brick, or stone pavers at a fraction of the cost. Exposed aggregate exposes natural stones in the concrete mix, creating a textured, slip-resistant surface perfect for the wet season.

Textured and Bordered Designs
Texture isn’t just about looks – it’s about safety. A broom finish creates fine grooves that provide traction when wet, particularly important during Logan’s summer storms. Bordered driveways combine concrete with pavers or colored edges to create definition. Popular in Park Ridge is plain concrete for the main surface with decorative borders along edges.
Design and Aesthetic Options
Colour Selections and Standard Dimensions
Oxide colours get mixed throughout the concrete, creating permanent colouring that won’t wear off. Concrete lightens as it cures – wet concrete on installation day will be several shades darker than your finished driveway.
Popular colours and sizes:
- Terracotta and red earth tones: Complement Queensland’s landscape and hide dirt better than lighter shades
- Charcoal and dark grey: Contemporary look popular in newer developments with a strong contrast
- Single-car driveways: Minimum 3 meters width, 3.5 meters is more comfortable for passenger exit
- Double driveways: 5-6 meters wide with a typical length of 15-25 meters from street to garage


Durability and Performance in Logan’s Climate
Expected Lifespan in Queensland Conditions
A properly installed concrete driveway in Logan should last 20-30 years or more. The keyword is “properly.” Driveways installed without adequate base preparation, proper reinforcement, or appropriate thickness will fail much sooner. Logan’s climate affects concrete longevity through repeated wet-dry cycles and intense UV exposure.
Factors affecting driveway lifespan:
- Quality installation: Adequate base preparation and reinforcement prevent early cracking and failure
- Climate stress: Wet-dry cycles cause clay soil expansion and contraction beneath concrete slabs
- Maintenance: Regular sealing every 2-3 years protects the surface and extends life
- Decorative finishes: Stamped patterns pressed into full depth and integral colours last the driveway’s entire life
Frequently Asked Questions About Concrete Driveways
Our concrete formulations include special additives that minimise heat absorption and control expansion. We also offer heat-reflective surface treatments that cool your driveway underfoot during Southeast Queensland’s summer months.
In many cases, yes. We assess your driveway’s foundation condition to determine if resurfacing is viable. Our concrete overlays provide renewed appearance and function at a lower cost, though complete replacement may be necessary for driveways with significant structural damage.
Exposed aggregate reveals natural stones within the concrete for a textured, slip-resistant finish ideal during Queensland rains. Stamped concrete imprints patterns resembling pavers or stone while maintaining a sealed surface that prevents weed growth in our humid climate.
Absolutely! We offer colour tinting options that complement your home’s exterior palette. From subtle earth tones popular in Logan estates to modern greys favoured in newer developments, we’ll create a custom colour match that enhances your property’s overall aesthetic.
We integrate channel drains, create subtle crowning for water dispersal, and sometimes implement permeable concrete solutions for sloped Logan properties. Each drainage design is customised to your property’s specific topography and local rainfall patterns.
We implement proper base preparation, strategic control joint placement, appropriate concrete thickness, and fibre-reinforced mixtures specifically designed for local soil conditions. These measures accommodate the ground movement common throughout Logan’s clay-heavy soil regions.
