Exposed aggregate driveways Newcastle

A natural stone finish that hides stains, grips in the wet and handles coastal conditions well. A popular choice for Newcastle homes.

• Wide range of stone and colour blends
• Slip-resistant surface
• Hard-wearing and low maintenance
• Sealed for extra protection

Why choose exposed aggregate?

Exposed aggregate removes the top layer of cement paste to reveal the natural stones beneath. The textured surface grips well when wet, hides dirt and tyre marks, and suits both modern and older homes across Newcastle and Lake Macquarie.

The process

We prepare the base, place reinforcement and pour the concrete with the chosen stone blend. At the right moment the surface is washed back to expose the aggregate, then sealed to protect the colour and make cleaning easier. Ask us for stone and colour options when we quote.

How exposed aggregate driveways are made

After the concrete is placed and levelled, the thin surface layer of cement is removed to reveal the natural stones underneath. The driveway is then cleaned and sealed. The result is a textured, durable finish that suits both modern and traditional Newcastle homes.

Why choose an exposed aggregate driveway?

• Slip-resistant surface, good for sloping driveways and wet weather
• Hides tyre marks, oil and everyday wear better than plain concrete
• Wide choice of stone types and colours
• Long-lasting and low maintenance when sealed

Exposed aggregate usually costs more than a plain concrete driveway because of the extra finishing and sealing work. See our concrete driveway services or get a free quote.
