Logan Reserve has gone from acreage to estate in a hurry, and both still exist side by side. One street is new houses on narrow frontages waiting on a first driveway, the next is a larger block where the shed matters more than the frontage. The concreting work follows that split.
A quick note on who we are. We do not pour concrete ourselves. We are a referral service, and we pass your job to experienced, insured local concreters who work across Logan Reserve and the surrounding streets.
Common concreting jobs in Logan Reserve
- First concrete driveways on new estate blocks
- Side paths, alfresco slabs and patios finishing new builds
- Shed and machinery slabs on the larger blocks
- Coloured and exposed aggregate frontages
- Repairs to older concrete on the established blocks
New estate and old acreage in the same postcode
It is worth knowing which you are when you ask for a price. On a narrow new frontage the questions are access, the step at the garage and the estate's design guidelines. On a remaining acreage block they are driveway length, base material on soft ground, and what the shed will carry. Same suburb, different quote, and a contractor who asks which one you have is doing it properly.
How the process works
Tell us about the job and your suburb. We pass the details to a local concreter who services Logan Reserve, and they call you back with a quote. There is no fee for the referral.
On a narrow new-estate frontage, access is the thing to flag. If there is no room for the truck to get to the pour, the quote needs a pump in it from the start.
What concreting costs in Logan Reserve
As a guide, plain concrete typically costs around $75 to $150 per square metre laid, with coloured and exposed aggregate finishes above that. New blocks price on area and finish. Larger blocks price on area, base and access. Bundling several pours into one visit is the saving that applies to both. See the cost guide for the full breakdown.
In Queensland, building work valued over $3,300 generally requires a QBCC licensed contractor, and whether a job needs a building approval depends on what it is and where it sits. Those rules are in the Building Regulation 2021, and Logan City Council and private building certifiers apply them. Ask the concreter to confirm licensing and approvals in the written quote before you sign.

Frequently asked questions
Will the concreter need access through the back yard?
For a back patio slab, usually yes, either for a barrow run or a pump line. Gate widths and anything in the way are worth mentioning at quote stage.
Do estate design guidelines really cover driveways?
In some estates, yes, including finish and colour. Check your paperwork before ordering, because it is cheap to check and expensive to get wrong.
Can you pour around an existing shed?
Yes, an apron or a surround is common work. The tricky part is the levels and the drainage at the shed edge, so it is a site visit question.
