Crestmead is two suburbs in one: a large industrial estate and the residential streets beside it. The industrial side means warehouse floors, truck hardstands and loading docks. The residential side means 1980s and 1990s driveways reaching the end of their lives.
One thing worth saying plainly. We do not do the work. We are a referral service that passes your job to experienced, insured local concreters covering Crestmead.
Common concreting jobs in Crestmead
- Warehouse and factory floors under commercial concreting
- Truck hardstands, loading pads and turning areas
- Replacing residential driveways and crossovers
- Shed, garage and carport slabs
- Repairs to industrial floors, joints and residential concrete
Industrial floors are specified, not just poured
On the industrial side the questions that decide the price are flatness tolerance, joint design, slab thickness for racking and forklift loads, and the finish. Get the engineer's specification in front of the contractor before you take quotes, because a price against a vague scope is not a price. Point loads from trailer legs and containers are the usual reason a hardstand fails early, so say what the yard actually carries.
How the process works
Tell us about the job and your suburb. We pass the details to a local concreter who services Crestmead, and they call you back with a quote. There is no fee for the referral.
For commercial work, tell us the trading hours and any staging you need. Night and weekend pours cost more in labour and are often cheaper than closing the gate.
What concreting costs in Crestmead
As a guide, plain concrete typically costs around $75 to $150 per square metre laid, with coloured and exposed aggregate finishes above that. Residential quotes here follow area and demolition. Commercial quotes follow the specification, the staging and the access hours, and they should itemise base preparation, joints and exclusions. See the cost guide for the full breakdown.
Two things to have in writing before you sign. In Queensland, building work valued over $3,300 generally requires a QBCC licensed contractor, so ask for the licence number and check it on the QBCC register. And approval requirements sit in the Building Regulation 2021, applied by Logan City Council and private building certifiers, so confirm what your job needs with the council or a certifier.

Frequently asked questions
How thick should a warehouse floor be?
It comes from the loads, the racking layout and the subgrade, which is why it is engineered rather than chosen by habit. Bring the specification to the quote.
Can you repair joints in an existing factory floor?
Yes, joint rectification and armouring is normal maintenance work on an industrial floor that carries forklifts.
Do commercial jobs need a different licence?
The licence class matters on commercial work. In Queensland, building work valued over $3,300 generally requires a QBCC licensed contractor, so ask for the licence and check it on the QBCC register.
