Trusted Residential and Commercial Concrete Experts in Auckland
Whatever your project; driveways, BBQs, paths, walls or something else, our shortlist of home and commercial concrete experts are the best in Auckland
Updated 2 November 2020
If your Auckland-based project needs a concreter, hiring one with the right experience and knowledge will make a significant difference to the overall results. As the construction industry can operate uniquely compared to other industries, there’s plenty to consider when finding the right professional for your project. Concreting projects are one-off and not something to rush into - our guide reveals everything you need to find a trusted expert for your project. We cover:
How much does a concreting project cost?
There are several factors that will influence the cost of a concreting job. These include the type of job – is it a driveway, footpath, wall etc. Next, the size of the area that needs concreting is directly proportional to the overall cost. After that, your location, gradient (how steep the surface is), and access to the area (i.e. it is behind your home in a difficult to access area, or in front of your house with street access?) will influence the final quote.
The following guide outlines what might expect to pay for a few different scenarios:
The following guide outlines what might expect to pay for a few different scenarios:
- For a 300m² plain 100mm thick driveway – around $55.00 per m²
- Between 150m² and 300m² - $65.00 per m²
- Smaller jobs - $75-$90 per m²
How can I get the best price for a concrete project in Auckland?
- Get a Few Quotes – Always ask for quotes from more than one company and compare like for like. You might find the cheapest is not the one you prefer, so use it to negotiate.
- Keep an Eye Open – If you’re thinking of having a concreting job done and see someone working on similar nearby, have a chat with them and see if they want to take you on for the convenience.
- Try and talk to previous customers for an honest appraisal – what were they like on-site, did they clear up afterwards, any issues with the work after?
- Ask around family and friends as they may have recommendations. If you see concreting work that catches your eye, it's not confronting to ask the owner of the property who did the work.
- Make sure you're comfortable with the contractor to avoid any issues later on. There's a number of questions you can ask to vet the company you plan to work with and avoid a cowboy operation. These include:
- Can they show you projects completed of a similar scope and nature?
- How long has the company been in business? You can check this using the Companies Office - ideally, you want one that has been around for at least 3-5+ years. Concreting is expensive so you want to avoid cowboys and disappointment.
- What materials/concrete is used, and is there a choice?
- Is everything included in the quote, i.e. there are not additional charges?
- Are they confident they can complete your job, or is it too small (or beyond their means?)
- What is their process for a variation in plans?
Before you settle on a concreter, remember - don’t simply go with the cheapest; if there’s a concreter you prefer, then ask if they can match or get close to the price.
Before you hire, make sure you are comfortable with everything proposed in the quote. Our 8 further questions can get ride of any nagging queries. These include:
- Are you happy with the previous jobs that you have seen by this company?
- Have you both agreed on what you want and a set price? What happens if there is a cost over-run?
- Do you find them easy to get on with? (this is important as they will be working on your property)
- Are they suitably insured for damage and liability while in your premises? Every concreter should have business insurance - if they don't, that's a red flag.
- What guarantees do they offer for the concreting and for how long?
- What is the timeframe to complete the job?
- Is the price fully inclusive, i.e. sub-contracting work and third party specialist work?
- Take your time to check out not just the people and the company, but also the previous jobs – this is one example where you will be able to find local work they have done before, and talk to the previous customer about their experience.
