New driveways from the street to the garage. The ground is dug out, formed up and reinforced with steel mesh before the pour.
Concrete Driveways across Logan
A new driveway starts with the ground. The old surface or soil is dug out, the base is levelled, and timber formwork is set to the finished height and shape. Plastic membrane goes down across the whole area with steel reinforcing mesh on top, and only then is the concrete poured.
Driveways can be finished plain or as exposed aggregate. Each job is measured and priced before any work starts, and the quote is free.
In Logan, the section of driveway between the road and your property boundary, the crossover, falls under Logan City Council's rules. Where there is kerb and channel outside the property, council may need an application for it, so ask about it when you get your quote.

Common questions
Do I need council approval for a new driveway in Logan?
For the crossover, possibly. Logan City Council says no application is needed if the crossover follows council's standard drawings, is the only one on the property, keeps a clear view of passing pedestrians and cars, matches the level of any existing footpath, and sits at least 600mm from the nearest stormwater pit and 800mm from any power or light pole. Otherwise an application goes to council first. Driveways onto state-controlled roads need a permit from the Department of Transport and Main Roads.
How soon can I drive on a new driveway?
As a general guide, new concrete takes foot traffic after a day or two and a car after about a week, and it keeps gaining strength for around four weeks. You will be told what applies to your pour.
Is the driveway reinforced?
Yes. Every driveway is laid over plastic membrane with steel reinforcing mesh.
