    Concrete Driveway Extension — Brisbane & Sunshine Coast

    Back to Blog

    Do You Need More Parking Space?

    It's a common situation — you've added a second car, a trailer or a boat to the family, and your existing driveway just isn't wide or long enough anymore. A concrete driveway extension is often the most cost-effective solution, adding permanent parking space that adds value to your property.

    What's Involved in a Driveway Extension?

    A driveway extension involves excavating and preparing the adjacent ground, setting up formwork to the right level and dimensions, and pouring new concrete that joins seamlessly to your existing driveway. We finish the new concrete to match the existing surface as closely as possible.

    Matching New Concrete to Old

    One challenge with driveway extensions is that fresh concrete looks different to aged concrete — new concrete is lighter. The best solution is to colour seal both the extension and the existing driveway after the new concrete has cured. This creates a uniform, professionally-finished result where both sections look like one seamless driveway.

    Types of Driveway Extensions We Do

    Common extension types include widening a single driveway to double width, extending the length to reach a new shed or garage, adding a turning bay or parking apron, and filling in the gap between a driveway and a fence line.

    How Long Does a Driveway Extension Take?

    Most residential driveway extensions can be completed in one day. The concrete then needs 24–48 hours before foot traffic and 3–7 days before vehicle traffic. We'll advise on the specific timing for your project.
