Why Choose Exposed Aggregate?

Exposed aggregate is a renowned coloured concrete solution that you can find in homes across Perth due to its extensive range of benefits. Prime durability, versatility, and aesthetics, exposed aggregate in Perth is a quality, cost-effective option for your desired coloured concreting applications. Some of these benefits include:

1. Built for WA Conditions: Exposed aggregate concrete is tough enough for Perth’s harsh sun and coastal weather. It resists cracking, chipping and heavy vehicle traffic, keeping driveways and paths looking sharp for years.
2. Safe, Non-Slip Finish: The natural texture provides reliable grip, ideal for driveways, pool surrounds, and walkways exposed to water or slope.
3. Low Maintenance: Once sealed, it stands up to stains and spills, with no weeds or movement like you get with pavers. Occasional cleaning keeps the surface fresh.
4. Custom Finishes and Blends: With a wide range of aggregates, colours and stone sizes, every Perth exposed aggregate driveway can be tailored to suit your home’s look and layout.
5. Adds Street Appeal: Decorative concrete solutions are known for instantly lifting the appearance of a property and offering a premium finish that enhances resale value.
6. Long-Term Value: Though the initial cost may be higher than plain or coloured concrete, its strength and minimal upkeep make exposed aggregate one of the most cost-effective driveway surfaces in Perth over time.

Exposed Concrete vs. Traditional Concrete Pavers

Part of the allure of exposed aggregate concrete is the natural textures that shine through, and the array of colours and aggregate combinations it comes in, making it a popular and stylish choice for coloured concrete in Perth. In addition to being incredibly durable and hard-wearing, exposed concrete is also low maintenance and perfect for both indoor and outdoor use.

Not only does it look better, but exposed concrete also outperforms traditional concrete pavers by removing the problem of weeds, ants’ nests, and the issue of movement and sagging of the paving is completely eliminated.

How Long Before I Can Walk on Newly Poured Exposed Aggregate?

To ensure the aggregate concrete is fully cured and has reached optimal strength, we highly recommend waiting a full day before walking on it and at least seven days before driving on it.

What is The Difference Between Coloured and Exposed Aggregate Concrete?

Many homeowners in Perth mistake exposed aggregate and coloured concrete. Both are decorative finishes that showcase stylish colours, so the distinction isn’t obvious without a closer look.

The key difference is that exposed aggregate reveals the stones within the concrete, giving a textured, slip-resistant surface, while coloured concrete is tinted through with pigment to create a smooth, consistent tone.

Each has its specific use cases. Exposed aggregate is better suited to driveways, paths, and pool surrounds where grip and durability matter. Coloured concrete fits patios, courtyards and lighter use areas where a clean, uniform look is preferred. In Perth’s climate, exposed aggregate generally outlasts and outperforms coloured concrete in high traffic zones.
