Overview
Shed, garage, patio and granny-flat slab specialists.
Concrete slabs sit under almost every structure on a residential block, sheds, garages, patios, granny flats, al fresco areas. They are not glamorous, but get one wrong and everything built on top of it pays the price.
In Perth, the combination of sandy soils, reactive clay pockets in the Hills and a very active termite environment means slab design is not a one-size solution. What works in Joondalup on deep sand does not necessarily work in Roleystone on clay.
We pour concrete slabs across the full Perth metro and have done for 30 years. Below is a plain-language breakdown of what goes into a slab job, how they are priced, and what questions to ask any concreter you are considering.

What to watch for
Things most concreters won't tell you.
After 30+ years on the tools, here's the stuff we wish every client knew before they signed a quote.
Worth knowing
Termite protection is mandatory in WA
Under the National Construction Code and WA Building Regulations, most new slabs require a termite management system. Options include physical termite barriers installed before pour, or chemical treatment. We coordinate with your building certifier to confirm requirements before we form up.
Watch out
Get a soil test on reactive clay sites
If you are building a granny flat or sleepout on a Hills block, an engineer-specified slab is not optional, it is what your building certifier will require. We work regularly with local structural engineers and can put you in contact if needed.
From the crew
“Concrete is not a small spend, get it done properly the first time. A slab that fails means pulling down whatever is built on top of it, then starting again.”
What's included
Every concrete slabs job includes:
This is what comes as standard on every quote. No surprises, no upsells halfway through the pour.
Read: Shed slab prep in Perth, walk-through- ✓Steel cover depth, chairs must hold mesh at correct depth, not resting on the barrier
- ✓Expansion joint placement, not just where it looks neat, but where shrinkage stress concentrates
- ✓Drainage fall direction, 1:100 minimum away from any structure, toward an outlet
- ✓Termite barrier continuity, any penetration through the barrier must be sealed
- ✓Curing time before load, 28 days for full strength, 7 days minimum before foot traffic
- ✓Sealer specification, a garage floor unsealed will absorb oil and stain permanently
