How much does concrete resurfacing cost in Melbourne?
Concrete resurfacing in Melbourne typically ranges from about $45 to $150 per square metre, depending on the finish you choose and how much surface preparation your existing concrete needs. A basic single-colour spray-on coating sits at the lower end, while premium finishes like timbercrete or slate impression cost more.
Why are some resurfacing quotes so much cheaper?
Cheaper prices are often possible when preparation is skipped or lower-grade products are used. Another common shortcut is stretching the product – using less than required or adding extra water to make it go further – which thins the coating and shortens its life. Nupave's pricing reflects the preparation, products and application needed to do the job properly so the surface looks better and lasts longer.
How do I extend the lifespan of my resurfaced concrete?
Pressure clean every 6-12 months depending on use, reseal when wear levels indicate it's needed, and address minor issues early before they spread. High-traffic and commercial areas benefit from earlier inspections. Protective sealers gradually wear from traffic and weather, so resealing is the key maintenance step.
Will reactive clay soil cause my resurfaced driveway to crack?
It can if the slab moves. The ground here is Silurian-sedimentary clay that ranks among the most shrink-swell reactive in metro Melbourne (commonly AS 2870 Class M–H1, with E-class pockets reported nearby). The overlay itself doesn't cause cracking – the key is a stable base slab. Where movement is active, replacement or remedial work may be needed before resurfacing.
