Questions & Answers
Rule #1 for Concrete Slabs—They’re All Different
Like beautiful, grey snowflakes, concrete slabs are all different.
Different dimensions, different styles, different reasons for being. Before getting too philosophical, here are just a few times you’ll require a concrete slab.
Concrete slabs for your patio
Building that dream patio out the back? A durable concrete slab is where it all begins.
Their versatility in appearance and design on top of their ease of installation make concrete slabs the first requirement of any long-lasting patio.
How much is a slab of concrete on the Gold Coast?
Every project is different, but the general cost of laying a concrete slab on the Gold Coast is between $80-150 per m2. Your per metre cost may fluctuate depending on the circumstances, for example, if you’re after a bigger concreting job, your per metre cost is likely to be discounted, but if there are unique challenges associated with the laying of your concrete slab, the quoted price will also reflect this. Don’t stress, however, when you get your free quote and onsite visit any questions will be answered thoroughly and pricing will be explained.
According to Gold Coast standards, how thick should a concrete slab be?
The absolute minimum thickness of a concrete slab on the Gold Coast (or anywhere) is 4 inches (100mm). This is subject to change and will be highly dependent on the structural requirements of your concrete slab. A foundation slab under the garden shed or in the front yard where you park your car will need to be 4 inches with rebar, but a quaint footpath for you and any other person - big or small - heading up the garden won’t need to be as structurally sound. When we provide a quote, our experts will determine the structural requirements of your concrete slab, and let you know how thick it needs to be.
Can I pour my own concrete slab?
Of course. We love a can-do attitude and respect any Aussie willing to get their hands dirty when working around their home. If it is a very minor concrete slab that needs pouring, and is not for anything structurally important like a shed, driveway, or water tank, then having a go is never a bad idea. However, we’ve been doing this for a while now, and the quality of tradesmanship you will get from us - and with incredibly fast turnaround times - is worth every dollar. We strongly recommend if the concrete slab is structural or difficult by nature, will be seen and used by many or is exposed aggregate, that you get us in for the job!
Do you need to rebar a 4-inch concrete slab?
Yes, a 4-inch concrete slab does need rebar. The general rule of thumb is that the thickness of your rebar should never be more than 12% (or ⅛) of your concrete slab. This means that for a 4-inch slab of concrete, your rebar steel shouldn’t be more than a half-inch thick.
Are concrete slabs good for water tanks and garden sheds?
There’s nothing better than a concrete slab for the foundation of your water tank or trusty garden shed. If you need a place for all your gardening tools or just a little hideaway where you can relax with a coffee away from the kids (they’re lovely really!), then laying a concrete slab for your future shed, water tanks or outdoor dining area is a great idea.
