Concrete pathways provide safe, all-weather access around your property. We install quality concrete footpaths across Geelong for front entrances, side access, garden paths, and connecting different areas of your property.
From narrow 600mm side paths with challenging access through to wide front walkways, we handle pathway projects of all sizes. Proper drainage, smooth transitions to existing surfaces, and attention to detail ensure your pathways look great and last for decades.
Narrow pathways down the side of your house, typically 800-1200mm wide. We specialise in tight access situations where getting equipment in is challenging. These paths provide essential access to backyards, clotheslines, and bins.
Wider pathways from your driveway or street to your front door. These can be plain concrete, exposed aggregate, or coloured concrete to complement your home’s appearance.
Pathways that connect your house to outdoor entertaining areas, sheds, or other structures on your property.
Concrete paths that wrap around your home, connecting front and back yards or providing access for maintenance and utilities.
Narrow side paths are our specialty. We regularly work in tight spaces with limited access – even 600mm paths with awkward gates and corners. We have the experience and techniques to handle difficult access situations.
Every pathway needs appropriate fall (typically 1-2%) to prevent water pooling. We ensure water drains away from your house and doesn’t create problems for doorways or neighbouring properties.
Professional transitions to driveways, doorways, and existing paths. No trip hazards or awkward steps. We match levels carefully and create smooth connections.
Whether you choose plain concrete, exposed aggregate, or coloured finishes, we deliver consistent, professional results across your entire pathway.
We inspect the route for your pathway, identifying any level changes, drainage considerations, or access challenges. Understanding your property helps us plan the best approach.
Digging the pathway route to correct depth and creating a compacted base. For narrow side access, we use equipment suited to tight spaces.
Setting up edge forms to create straight, consistent edges for your pathway. Forms determine the final shape and levels.
Pouring concrete with appropriate fall for drainage. For narrow side paths, we may need to wheel concrete through tight access points.
Smoothing and finishing the concrete surface. For exposed aggregate, we wash the surface to reveal the stone. For plain concrete, we create a broom finish for slip resistance.
Creating smooth connections to driveways, doorways, and existing surfaces. Getting the details right prevents trip hazards and ensures good water flow.
We install concrete pathways throughout Greater Geelong including Geelong, Belmont, Newtown, Highton, Grovedale, Waurn Ponds, and surrounding suburbs. Our service area extends across the Bellarine Peninsula (Ocean Grove, Barwon Heads, Point Lonsdale, Queenscliff, Portarlington, Leopold) and Surf Coast (Torquay, Jan Juc, Anglesea, Aireys Inlet), plus the broader Geelong region including Lara, Corio, Bannockburn, and Inverleigh.
Concrete pathway costs typically range from $80-$120 per square metre depending on width, finish type, and access difficulty. Narrow side paths with challenging access may cost slightly more due to labour requirements. We provide detailed quotes after assessing your property.
Front walkways are typically 1000-1500mm wide for comfortable two-way traffic. Side access paths are usually 800-1200mm wide, though we can work with narrower spaces if needed. Garden paths can be 600-900mm wide.
Light foot traffic is generally fine after 24-48 hours. Full strength after 7 days. We’ll give you specific guidance for your pathway based on weather conditions and concrete type.
Yes, this is our specialty. Even 600mm wide side paths with awkward access – we’ve got the experience and equipment to handle it. We regularly work in tight spaces that other concreters avoid.
Large tree roots near pathways can cause future cracking if they grow under the concrete. We’ll assess your situation and advise on root barriers or alternative routes if needed.
We can match levels and transitions, but exactly matching old concrete appearance is difficult as concrete ages and weathers. We’ll discuss the best approach for a seamless result with new concrete.
Pathways need slight fall (usually 1-2%) to prevent water pooling. We ensure water drains away from your house and doorways, and doesn’t redirect onto neighbouring properties.
Yes, exposed aggregate is a popular choice for pathways. It provides excellent slip resistance, looks attractive, and is particularly suitable for front walkways where you want a premium finish.
If there are significant level changes along your pathway route, we can create gentle slopes, install steps, or recommend the best solution based on your property’s layout and your needs.
