FAQs
On an accessible residential site, a typical driveway in Auckland costs between $120 and $450 per square meter. This includes labour, material delivery, sub-base laying, concrete pouring, and finishing touches. It also includes everything from start to finish. Concrete driveway cost estimates frequently take the following factors into account:
- How big is your driveway?
- The slope of your driveway or the area you want to concrete
- How much digging is required?
- Different concrete materials are chosen
- Drainage planning
- The installation site's condition and the amount of preparation required
- Removing concrete, garbage and dirt
- Performing the installation, which requires some manual labour in places where machines cannot reach
A few pricing considerations: If your quote is extremely low, all prices per square meter may not have been considered.
When the total cost is added to the low per square meter pricing, the price is typically much higher per square meter.
We intend to give you an all-inclusive price per square meter, but the exact cost cannot be determined until we arrive on site and assess the scope of the work.

When looking for a reliable, trustworthy, reputable and quality concreter consider the following:
-
Client testimonials, previous work and before and after photos
-
Knowledge of concrete driveway planning and installation
-
Years of experience laying concrete and driveways
A newly laid concrete driveway will deteriorate over time. A good concrete worker will do the following to minimize the cracking of your driveway:
-
Prepare the site before installing the driveway
-
Install controlled joints
-
Have a strong steel base
-
Cut concrete into pieces or add metal reinforcement to allow it to move and expand
-
Use top quality concrete
-
Allow at least one week before returning to normal traffic; for heavy equipment allow 14-30 days
-
Keep heavy equipment, tracks and garbage bins off your concrete driveways
The thickness of a concrete driveway is dependent on the soil it’s being laid on, local industry standards and how much heavy vehicles will be using the driveway.
For expansive soils contractors will typically lay a 7.5 to 15cm structural base and pour 4 to 6 inches of concrete. Heavy vehicles should be avoided on your driveway whenever possible as they can cause damage.
To reduce the likelihood of your new driveway cracking, try to avoid:
For typical traffic, at least a week.
Large trucks or equipment require at least 30 days, and heavy equipment requires 14 to 30 days.
Moving vans and skip bins, due to their weight, can crack a concrete driveway. Try to keep them off your concrete driveway whenever possible.
Concrete driveways must be sealed to extend their useful life. They should be sealed at least every two to five years to keep them looking new and extend their lives.
The driveway installation process takes 3 visits and about 1 to 2 weeks from start to finish:
-
Preparing the driveway
-
Pouring and sealing the concrete
-
Additional steps for council approval and inspections for crossings or footpaths (if required).
To avoid delays get the council paperwork done as early as possible.
Yes footpaths and crossings must be concreted as part of the CDC or council approval process.
Your driveway contractor will liaise with the local council to:
-
Submit applications
-
Book inspections
-
Get final approvals
