Exposed Aggregate Paving
Exposed aggregate is a form of decorative paving which has a concrete base and an open layer on top – where the various types of materials that have gone into the concrete can be viewed.
In addition to opening a wide array of creative design possibilities, exposed aggregate is highly durable, low maintenance, and affords excellent grip for vehicle tyres. As such, exposed aggregate is ideally suited to a huge array of applications.
Our expert Toowoomba concreters provide exposed aggregate in a wide range of designs. You have the option to choose what size and grade you’d like the stones in the aggregate to be, as well as adjust the level of cement exposure.

It's also easy to install, which makes it a great cost-effective option, and very low maintenance, requiring little more than a very occasional sealing or a quick sweep.

Exposed Aggregate Driveways Built To Last For Years
Exposed aggregate driveways aren't just for show. They're extremely durable and long-lasting, which is one reason why they're a preferred method of paving. The textured design of exposed aggregate concrete means that wear and discolouration from heavy traffic aren't easily visible, and with proper care and maintenance, exposed aggregate driveways can last for decades.
Why Choose An Exposed Aggregate Driveway?
Exposed aggregate driveways are growing in popularity across Australia because of the many benefits they offer to homeowners, including:
Eco-friendly
They're eco-friendly, which makes them a top choice for those who want to lower their carbon footprint and reduce their impact on the environment. Exposed aggregate can be made from a huge range of materials including recycled materials like glass and sand. It's also easy to repurpose old aggregate concrete into asphalt and other substances for surfacing roads and pavements.
Low Maintenance
Exposed aggregate driveways are also extremely low maintenance, requiring no regular maintenance or cleaning. Washing your driveway annually with a power washer or a similar device is all you'll need to do to keep your exposed aggregate driveway in top condition.
Excellent Traction
This type of driveway also offers superior traction. The texture of the exposed aggregate means that these driveways are naturally slip-resistant and offer additional traction to both people and vehicles. This makes them an excellent choice for sloped driveways or areas with heavy rainfall.
Cost-effective
Exposed aggregate driveways are a cost-effective option partially because the cost of the materials is low but also because they're very easy to install. The reduced installation time makes exposed aggregate an excellent choice for large spaces or driveways on a tight budget. Their durability also means you won't have to replace your driveway for many years.
Aesthetics
The sheer amount of variety available means that buyers can customise their driveway to suit any look they want to achieve. Exposed aggregate driveways are available in thousands of colours and styles, and aggregate creates an eye-catching and visually appealing look that's hard to replicate. Some types of aggregate can even be used to emulate the visual appearance of other natural materials and surfaces.
