Caloundra, 4551, is the southern end of the coast and one of its oldest addresses, which shows in the concrete. The beach streets around Kings Beach and Shelly Beach carry weatherboard and brick cottages whose driveways were poured thin in another era, while the blocks further back run to 1970s and 1980s brick veneer with side drives, sheds and pools that have all seen decades of sun. We pour driveways, patios, pool surrounds, paths and slabs across Caloundra on one fixed written quote.
Near the water the ground is sand that drains quickly but settles under a slab unless it is compacted properly; back from the beach the older streets pick up firmer profiles. Either way, the preparation is quoted to the block in front of us, not to an average.
Driveway work here is mostly replacement: out with the cracked original, in with a new concrete driveway formed to the existing crossover and poured on a compacted base with steel on chairs. On the street side, exposed aggregate has become the Caloundra default for renovated frontages, and a broom finished plain grey still does the honest work on side runs and behind gates.
Caloundra lives outside, so the back of house work is constant: pool surrounds that stay grippy wet, alfresco slabs at floor level for the afternoon south easterly, and paths that link the lot. With the Aura estates growing on the suburb’s doorstep, we also pour to covenant requirements where a block sits inside a design controlled release. Ranges for every service are on the rates guide, and the build standard sets out exactly what a Caloundra quote includes.
