What to expect

What goes into a driveway that lasts

A driveway has to do more than look sharp on pour day. It needs the base, reinforcement, thickness and drainage right underneath it so it keeps handling weather, vehicle traffic and daily use over time.

AMA Concrete has been operating since 1980 and promotes driveways as a core service. The visible finish can be plain, coloured, decorative or exposed aggregate, but the job still depends on the same fundamentals: compacted subgrade, reinforcement matched to the slab, and expansion joints planned before the concrete cures.

Finish options

Pick the finish first.

The finish sets the look, the upkeep and the way the driveway presents from the street. AMA publicly promotes coloured, decorative and exposed aggregate options alongside standard concrete work.

Exposed aggregate driveway finish sample Most popular

Exposed Aggregate

A premium driveway finish that adds grip, texture and visual depth while still holding up to everyday vehicle use.

Finished plain concrete driveway

Plain Concrete

Broom-finished workhorse. Clean look, easy to maintain, the clearest value pick for larger frontages.

Dark coloured concrete driveway with clean edges

Coloured Concrete

Full-depth pigment for darker architectural tones — no surface coating to peel or wear unevenly.

Paver border and edging detail next to concrete

Borders & Paver Details

Used where you want stronger edge definition, banding, or a repair-friendly boundary treatment.

HOW WE WORK

Five steps. No surprises.

From the first phone call to the last broom-down. Most jobs sit in this rhythm — anything different gets explained before we start, not after.

  1. 1

    Site Measure & Scope

    Dan measures the area, checks levels and drainage, walks through finish options, and confirms whether existing concrete needs to come out. Written quote within 24 hours — scope, materials, and timeline in writing.

  2. 2

    Excavate & Base Prep

    Old slab broken up and removed if applicable. Subgrade compacted, road base laid and re-compacted to depth. Formwork set, levels checked twice. This is where cheap quotes cut corners — ours doesn’t.

  3. 3

    Reinforce & Pour

    SL82 or SL92 mesh placed on chairs at correct cover. Mix arrives to spec, slab is poured, screeded, and finished to the chosen surface. Control joints cut at 3–4m centres before cure.

  4. 4

    Cure & Crossover

    Slab protected during the initial cure. Council crossover reinstated to LGA spec where applicable. Walk on after 24–48 hours, vehicles after 7 days, full strength at 28.

  5. 5

    Clean Handover

    Formwork removed, site swept, excess spoil taken away. Written care sheet on the kitchen bench: when to seal, how to wash, when full vehicle loading is safe. Done.
