Who We Are
Our concreting company in Orange, NSW was built initially to provide quality concreting services in the region that, at the time, were hard to find. We were built on the values of providing solid services to those who needed them. Being experienced with years working in the industry, our founder was focused on doing the job right instead of just trying to get jobs done quickly. This led to a fair amount of growth in the jobs coming in, and we grew in capacity.
Our team currently works on all sorts of jobs, from smaller projects like footpaths along your yards to large concrete slabs for multi-level commercial buildings. This means that our contractors have a large range of expertise and know what different jobs need and how to set your foundations right for your job and how deep to pour concrete. We have the same level of care and excellence for every project, so no matter how big or small your job may be, you can be comfortable with using our services in Orange.
Who We Work With
We generally take on both residential and commercial projects in Orange. We keep our work to local customers, as that leaves us as local experts who know how concrete needs to be mixed and cured in Orange. We account for the drier summers and cold winters the local climate faces, so you’re not just getting a team that flies in from someone else and applies a generic approach that can end up hurting your concrete. If you’re anywhere in the area, give us a call, and we’ll be able to get you scheduled. Depending on the size of the job, our team can even provide our services to cities and towns further away that are outside our regular service area. We occasionally help with jobs in Bathurst and Dubbo.

Our Values
Our team has built our values on reputable, dependable work that produces long-term results. We work to meet Australian building standards in every job we take on, both residential and commercial. Having this mindset coming into every project ensures we keep the concrete mix right and do solid work preparing a compact subbase below your concrete. For pathways and driveways, we ensure that joints are cut correctly to allow for flexibility when there is movement underneath your soil. From there, we set up the guidelines and formwork so your concrete drains properly away from your property. With us, you can know that you will get a concrete surface that ends up being durable and lasts the test of time, curing into a strong surface that you risk with cheaper, lower-quality contractors. Anyone can pour concrete, but installing a surface that lasts you multiple decades takes skill and excellence in what you do.

FAQs
How much is concrete per m² in NSW?
In regional NSW, the average cost for a professional concrete installation typically ranges from $100 to $160 per square meter.
- Plain Concrete: $100 – $120 per m²
- Reinforced Concrete: $120 – $150 per m² (Recommended)
- Decorative (Exposed Aggregate): $150 – $200+ per m²
Note: Prices in Orange may fluctuate slightly based on site accessibility and the distance the "ready-mix" truck has to travel from the plant.
Do concreters need a license in NSW?
Yes. In New South Wales, any person carrying out residential building work (including concreting) valued at more than $5,000 (incl. labor and materials) must hold a valid contractor license from NSW Fair Trading. Always check your contractor’s license number before signing a contract to ensure you are covered by Home Building Compensation insurance.
What is the 4-2-1 rule for concrete?
The 4-2-1 rule is a traditional ratio for mixing standard-strength concrete. It stands for:
- 4 parts Gravel (Aggregate)
- 2 parts Sand
- 1 part Cement
This ratio provides a solid balance of strength and workability. For structural slabs in Orange, however, most professionals use a pre-mixed 25MPa or 32MPa concrete from a local plant to ensure consistency against the local freeze-thaw cycles.
How much will a 20x20 concrete slab cost?
It depend if you're measure in feet or metres.
- 20ft x 20ft (~37m²): This is roughly a standard double-garage size. You can expect to pay between $4,000 and $6,000 for a reinforced slab.
- 20m x 20m (400m²): This is a massive industrial-sized slab. A professional pour of this scale would typically range from $45,000 to $65,000+, depending on the thickness and the amount of steel reinforcement required.
How high are concrete slabs?
"Height" usually refers to the thickness of the slab. Standards vary by the intended use:
- Patios/Footpaths: 75mm – 100mm thick.
- Residential Driveways/Sheds/Garages: 100mm - 150mm thick (with SL72 or SL82 mesh).
- Heavy Vehicle Industrial Slabs: Depends, but can exceed 200mm tohandle heavy machinery and poor soil conditions (Clay in Orange, NSW).
How far will a 20 kg bag of concrete go?
A standard 20 kg bag of pre-mixed concrete doesn't go very far! One 20 kg bag yields approximately 0.01 cubic meters of wet concrete.
To cover 1 m² at a standard depth of 100mm, you would need roughly 10 to 11 bags. If you are just doing a small patch or post-hole, a few bags are fine. For a full slab, ordering a truck is significantly more cost-effective. That's where our concreting services come in, to tackle larger scale jobs you've got.
