Concreting in Highton

Highton sits up the hill on reactive clay and a fair bit of slope, and both change the brief. We step up the thickness and the mesh for the clay, set out for the fall, and design house and shed slabs to AS 2870 off a real site classification.

Reviews

What Highton homeowners say.

★★★★★

“Three quotes, and Slabline was the only one that gave us a real per-m² price before they even came out. The number on the day matched it, and the quote named the thickness, the SL72 mesh and the MPa. Driveway is dead flat and the crossover passed the council inspection first go.”

Local questions

Concreting in Highton, answered.

Do you charge extra to come to Highton?

No. Highton is within 35km of our Geelong base, so there is no travel or concrete float surcharge. The free measure and the by-the-m² quote are the same whether you are around the corner or at the edge of the radius.

How soon can you pour my slab in Highton?

We aim to be on site for a free measure within 48 hours and to have the written quote back to you within one business day of measuring. The pour itself depends on the size, the site classification and concrete supply, and we will give you a realistic window on the quote. Most residential driveways are a two to four day job once we start, with the cure on top, and wet or cold weather can move pour days.

Will the slab hold in the ground around Highton?

Only if the base and the reo are right, which is exactly what we do. We check the soil and the falls on the measure and classify the site under AS 2870, then size the slab thickness, the mesh and the footings to it, with a compacted base under the slab and control joints cut. A slab poured thin over loose fill cracks and lifts within a couple of summers, so the base and footings are the part our 10-year guarantee covers.

Can you work with our body corporate or owner-builder build in Highton?

Yes. We are used to townhouse, duplex and new-build driveways and slabs where a body corporate, a builder or an owner-builder has to sign off the spec, the finish and the cost. We give you a clear itemised by-the-m² quote you can put in front of the committee or the builder, with the thickness, the mesh and the MPa named, plus the AS 2870 design where the slab is structural, so the approval is the easy part.
