Common concrete jobs in Strathfieldsaye
A mix of new builds and established acreage.
Strathfieldsaye homeowners tend to ask for a mix of practical and lifestyle jobs: new driveways, alfresco areas, pool surrounds and shed slabs. Each project has different finish, strength and slip-resistance needs, so describing how you will use the space helps your concreter recommend the right approach.
Alfresco areas
Outdoor slabs sized for entertaining.
Honed or colouredPool surrounds
Safe, comfortable decks.
Textured, paleShed slabs
Workshops and storage.
ReinforcedChoose a patio style
Open slab or covered alfresco?
Outdoor spaces change with how they are used.
Outdoor spaces change with how they are used, and a simple open slab suits flexible entertaining while a covered alfresco gives year-round shelter. If a roof might follow later, plan the footings into the pour now to avoid cutting concrete afterwards.
Open slab
- Add a pergola later
- Easy to furnish
- Exposed to weather
Covered alfresco
- Footings built in
- Shade and shelter
- Needs design up front
Our take: Plan footings now if a roof might follow.
From idea to slab
Designing an outdoor space
Four stages for a patio or pool deck.
Designing an outdoor space goes smoothly in four stages: sketch the layout, choose the finish from samples, prepare the base and pour, then seal. Looking at samples in the sun makes colour and texture decisions much easier.
- 1
Sketch the layout
Size, shape and position are agreed.
- 2
Pick the finish
Samples are checked in the sun.
- 3
Prepare and pour
Base, steel and concrete are placed.
- 4
Seal and enjoy
A sealer protects the finish.
Strathfieldsaye concrete questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Practical answers to help you plan your next step.
Have a project in mind?01What size patio suits a family home in Strathfieldsaye?
It depends on furniture and use, but marking the outline on the lawn with rope or chalk shows how it feels in practice. Leave room to walk around the table and consider future plans such as a pergola.
02Can I add a pergola to my patio later?
Yes, provided footings are planned during the pour. Telling your concreter about a future roof lets them place footings in the right positions so posts can be fixed without cutting the slab.
03What finish is best around a pool?
A textured, light-coloured finish such as exposed aggregate is popular for grip and comfort underfoot. Ask about slip resistance, surface temperature and drainage away from the pool when comparing options.
