How much does concreting cost in Brisbane?
The average concreting cost in Brisbane ranges anywhere between $50 and $75/sqm. But when computing the final price, there are several factors we need to consider.
What are the factors that affect the total cost of installing concrete?
These factors include:
- The property location
- How much material do we need to use
- The size and scope of the project
- Your chosen concrete finish
- How long the concreting project will take
- How accessible the property is
- The depth and difficulty of excavation
- The amount of labour required
- Whether drainage needs to be installed or not
What other factors affect the cost of the concreting project?
One of the first things that come to mind is the cost of labour. Concrete installation contractors typically charge an average of $67.50 per hour. But this rate can vary. The bottom line is the rate depends on the contractor and where they are in the country.
When computing the cost, we also factor in the property’s location and the terrain. Naturally, a sloped terrain is going to be more challenging to work on than a property located on flat terrain, so concrete installation is going to cost more.
How do you determine the price of the concreting project?
The first thing we’re going to factor in is the location’s total area. Next, we will determine the number and amount of materials we will need for the project. Only then can we give you a quote for each square metre of concrete we will install.
Do you offer other concreting services and how much do they usually cost?
Yes! Check out our website for our list of concreting services.
To give you an idea, here’s an overview.
Want to add some colour to your concrete? We charge around $75 for this service. We also install exposed aggregate concrete and the price for this service starts at $80.
Expect to pay around $80 for plain concreting jobs. Naturally, the total cost will be higher if you want coloured concrete, stamped concrete, and other decorative types of concrete.
We encourage you to reach out to us to learn more about our services and their corresponding prices.
Is drainage necessary for all concrete installation?
Yes, drainage is necessary for most concrete installation projects.
A good drainage system is necessary to ensure the longevity of any paved surface, including concrete. It prevents water from pooling in a certain area of the pavement and weakening the concrete. Proper drainage also protects your home or commercial property’s foundation, preserving it in the long run.
Can you explain the whole concrete installation process?
Here’s an overview of the concrete installation process.
We start by preparing the job site for the installation. We’ll clean it, make excavations, and then prepare the site for drainage.
We’ll build the formwork before we pour the concrete. We’re not going to leave your property looking like an unfinished construction site, so we always make sure to clean up afterward.

While concrete looks like a simple material that’s easy to work with, it’s anything but. If you’ve ever attempted to work the concrete, you’ll know that things can get messy and complicated fast. Even if you do manage to work with concrete, it’s no guarantee that you’ve created something stable, safe or long lasting. Working with concrete requires an expert touch, and it’s one that our Brisbane concreters can provide.

OUR BRISBANE CONCRETER’S EXPERTISE
A concreter pours, spreads, smooths and finishes concrete to create flooring or structures around the home. To do so successfully, they need to be able to complete several other important tasks that will determine if the final result is attractive, long lasting and functional.
To start with, if there’s any existing concrete work on a work site, it may need to be removed, or if it’s being restored it will need repairs and reinforcements by cutting joints and fixing cracks in it.
Brisbane concreting work will need to be in line with architectural or engineering restrictions put in place so it’s fully compliant with the law. A foundation trench, concrete slabs and sub base might be required.
The area to be concreted will need to be prepared on site with its form work created typically using timber. The concrete will need to be placed within the form work, levelled or given fall where necessary using a screed, trowel and edger, then if desired a decorative finish can be added using specialised equipment.
Concrete expansion joints might need to be used to prevent cracking and steel reinforcement mesh positioned strategically with in the concrete for extra strength. Items such as steel dowels might be required to connect other structural elements together. Trowelling and floating using specialised machinery might be needed to increase the concrete’s density and ensure the surface is as smooth as possible where required.
After finishing touches such as stencilling, stamping or exposing the concrete to name just a few, it will then need to be cleaned and sealed to create a long lasting, attractive and low maintenance concrete finish.
Knowing how to do all the above requires specialised training and years of experience. It’s why you should only choose professional Brisbane concreters to get the job done.
