Our Concrete Services
Design Options and Customization
Our exposed aggregate options offer endless possibilities for customisation. We provide a wide selection of stone colours ranging from classic whites and blacks to warm browns and vibrant reds, allowing you to perfectly complement your home’s exterior. The size of the aggregate also plays a crucial role in the final appearance, with options from fine pebbles for a more subtle texture to larger stones for bold visual impact.
Our clients enhance their projects with decorative borders that create definition and visual interest. We can incorporate patterns or combine exposed aggregate with other concrete finishes for unique designs. For those seeking additional personalisation, we offer colour-tinted base concrete that works harmoniously with your chosen aggregate to create a cohesive, custom look.
