Concrete work shaped around your home

From a new driveway to a patio or front entrance, O'Brien Paving offers residential concrete work on its own or alongside asphalt, excavation and landscaping. Start with how you want to use the space, then consider its shape and finish.

New concrete driveways and pads, with the approach, adjoining surfaces and intended use considered together. Include any removal or preparation work when describing your project.
Concrete patios, porches and pool surrounds for outdoor spaces. Discuss the layout, edges, steps and finish options as part of the whole project.
Sidewalks, garden walks, curbs, borders and entrance steps. Connect the new concrete with the driveway, doorway and existing landscape.
Concrete floors and general flatwork for residential spaces. Ask about smooth and polished finish options suited to the floor and its intended use.

Finished concrete driveway and apron with control joints beside a lawn and sidewalk

Concrete Driveways and Approaches

A driveway project brings together the parking surface, apron and edges beside the lawn or walk. Tell us what is there now, how the driveway is used and whether the work includes widening, removal or changes to adjoining surfaces.

Concrete Driveways and Approaches
Curved concrete walkway passing garden beds and leading to concrete steps at a home entrance

Walkways That Connect the Property

Curved walks, steps and entrance areas can be planned around existing gardens and doorways. Consider the route, changes in level and the point where concrete meets asphalt or landscaping before choosing the final shape.

Walkways That Connect the Property

Texture and Detail for Outdoor Spaces

Decorative concrete can bring texture to patios, porches, walks and steps. Our finish options include stamped patterns, exposed aggregate, broom finish and colour choices. Discuss the appearance and intended use when deciding on a finish.

Texture and Detail for Outdoor Spaces
Timber forms outline a walkway around a garden on a prepared granular base

Preparation Before Concrete Placement

This walkway is shown at the formwork and granular-base stage. Layout and preparation come before the finished surface. Include excavation, existing grades and connected landscape work in the quote discussion so the whole scope is understood.

Preparation Before Concrete Placement

Choose the application first, then the finish

Broom-finished concrete offers a textured outdoor surface. Stamped concrete adds decorative patterns, while exposed aggregate reveals the stone in the concrete. Shape, edging and colour can be considered alongside the finish for your driveway, patio or walkway.
