Concrete and civil contractor services in Adelaide

Concreting in Adelaide for homes and businesses, formed, poured and finished properly.

Concreting across Adelaide for residential and commercial jobs, from shed slabs and pads to driveways and yard areas. Roger has more than 35 years in concrete, so the parts that decide how long a slab lasts (set-out, base, reinforcement and finishing) are done properly before anyone picks up a float. You deal with one crew from set-out to clean-up, and you get a slab that sits level, drains where it should and is built to limit cracking rather than invite it.

Mining concrete works across SA, WA and NT, built to site safety and engineering requirements.

Mining sector concrete works on sites across South Australia, Western Australia and the Northern Territory. Remote sites leave no room for rework, so every pour is set out and built to the engineer's specification, and the site's induction, permit and safety requirements are met before work starts. Typical scope covers equipment pads and foundations, workshop and wash-bay slabs, and plinths for plant. Send through the drawings and the site location and you'll get a clear scope and quote.

Exposed aggregate concrete for Adelaide driveways, paths and entertaining areas. Hard-wearing, with grip.

Exposed aggregate concrete for Adelaide driveways, paths and outdoor entertaining areas. The top layer of cement paste is washed away to reveal the stone in the mix, giving a textured, hard-wearing surface with more grip underfoot than smooth concrete. Timing the wash-off is what separates an even finish from a patchy one. You pick the aggregate blend, and the finished surface is cut with control joints and sealed.

Raft slabs in Adelaide for homes, extensions and sheds, poured to your engineer's design.

Raft slabs in Adelaide for new homes, extensions and sheds, built to your engineer's design. Much of Adelaide sits on reactive clay that swells and shrinks with the seasons, which is why the beam sizes and reinforcement in the design matter. The ground is excavated and prepared, the vapour barrier and steel go in, and the slab is ready for inspection before any concrete arrives. It's finished level and square, so the next trade starts on a true base.

Burnished concrete floors for Adelaide warehouses and garages. Hard, smooth and low-dust.

Burnished concrete floors for Adelaide warehouses, factories, workshops and garages. The slab is machine-trowelled repeatedly as it sets, closing the surface into a hard, smooth, dense finish that sheds less dust and is easy to sweep and clean. That suits forklift traffic, racking and vehicles. Control joints are sawn to manage shrinkage, the floor is cured so the surface keeps its strength, and a sealer can be added for extra stain resistance.

Concrete floor finishes matched to how the floor is used, from smooth trowel to non-slip.

Concrete floor finishes chosen for how your floor will actually be used. A steel trowel finish gives a smooth, dense surface for interior and shed floors, a broom finish adds grip to paths and ramps, and a sponge finish leaves a fine texture for outdoor areas. Slopes and wet areas get a non-slip finish. Most finishes are worked in while the concrete is still setting, so the choice has to be made before the pour, which is why you get advice first.

Concrete footpaths and walkways in Adelaide, graded to drain and built to last.

Concrete footpaths and walkways for Adelaide homes, businesses and commercial sites. A path that holds up starts below the surface: excavation to depth, a compacted base, and falls set so water runs off instead of pooling against your walls. Each path is formed to line and level, broom-finished for grip, and jointed to control cracking.

Concrete repair in Adelaide for cracked, broken or sunken concrete, before it becomes a bigger job.

Concrete repair in Adelaide for cracked, broken, lifted or sunken slabs, paths and floors. The first job is working out why it failed (ground movement, a poor base, tree roots or overloading), because patching over the cause just brings the crack back. Minor damage can be patched or resurfaced. Badly damaged sections are cut out and replaced so they sit flush with the surrounding concrete and the trip hazard is gone.

Concrete core drilling in Adelaide for plumbing, electrical and air-con penetrations.

Concrete core drilling in Adelaide for plumbing, electrical, drainage and air-conditioning penetrations through walls and floors. Coring cuts a clean, round hole to the size you need, without the cracking and spalling that hammer drilling causes, and with far less noise, dust and vibration. That makes it the right method for occupied homes, offices and shops. Send the hole sizes, depths and locations and you'll get a quote.

Concrete plinths and upstands in Adelaide for plant, machinery, tanks and building edges.

Concrete plinths and upstands in Adelaide for plant, machinery, tanks and building edges. A plinth lifts equipment off the floor, spreads its load and keeps it clear of water, while upstands and nib walls form hobs, kerbs and edge details. Each one is formed to the dimensions on your drawings, with bolts and fixings cast in at the right positions so the equipment goes straight on.

Concrete cutting in Adelaide for openings, trenches, joints and removals in slabs and walls.

Concrete cutting in Adelaide for new openings, trenches, joints and removals in slabs and walls. Saw cutting leaves a straight, clean edge and does far less damage than breaking concrete out by hand, so the surrounding slab stays sound. Common jobs include trenches for plumbing and services, doorway openings, control joints in new slabs, and sections cut out for removal and replacement.

Excavation and earthmoving in Adelaide: site cuts, trenching and earthworks for building and civil jobs.

Excavation in Adelaide for construction and civil projects, covering site cuts, levelling, trenching and bulk excavation. Getting the excavation and the concrete from one contractor means the ground is prepared for exactly what's going on it, with no gap between trades for things to go wrong. Spoil is taken away, and cuts and trenches are backfilled and compacted ready for the next stage.

Concrete footings in Adelaide. Strip and pad footings dug and poured to engineering.

Concrete footings in Adelaide, with strip and pad footings excavated, reinforced and poured to your engineer's design. Footings carry everything built above them, and on Adelaide's reactive clay the depths and reinforcement the engineer sets are not optional. Trenches are dug to depth, reinforcement cages go in, and the inspection is lined up before the pour so your build isn't held up.

Contaminated soil removal in Adelaide, so sites can be safely built on or reused.

Contaminated soil removal and remediation in Adelaide, so affected sites can be safely built on, sold or reused. Working to your environmental consultant's plan, the affected soil is excavated to the extent they set and removed to an appropriate facility, then the excavation is backfilled with clean fill and the site reinstated. You get an earthworks crew that follows the consultant's plan rather than guessing at it.

Base preparation for concrete in Adelaide. The compacted base that stops cracking later.

Base preparation for concrete slabs, paths and driveways across Adelaide. A lot of cracked concrete traces back to what's underneath it. The ground is excavated to level, road base is supplied, spread and compacted, and levels are checked before the pour so the slab has an even thickness and consistent support across its whole area.

Underground services installed, and redundant ones capped or removed, across Adelaide.

Underground services installation and removal in Adelaide: trenching and laying new water, stormwater and conduit runs, and capping or removing redundant ones during renovations, demolitions and redevelopments. New runs are laid to the required depth and fall, then trenches are backfilled and the surface reinstated to match what was there.

Underground storage tank removal and installation in Adelaide, from excavation to reinstatement.

Underground storage tank removal and installation in Adelaide for fuel and water tanks on commercial, industrial and rural sites. For removals, the tank is excavated, lifted out and taken away, with soil testing coordinated with your environmental consultant before the hole is backfilled and the site reinstated. For new tanks, excavation, bedding, placement and backfill are handled as one job.

Drum collection in Adelaide for commercial, industrial and rural sites.

Drum collection in Adelaide for commercial, industrial and rural sites where used drums are piling up. Drums are picked up and taken for disposal or recycling, either as a one-off clean-up or on a regular schedule. You get a record of each collection for your own paperwork, so the drums are gone and accounted for.
