Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does an exposed aggregate driveway cost in Adelaide?
The cost of an exposed aggregate driveway in Adelaide varies based on size, stone selection, and site preparation. Contact Marvel Concrete for a free, no-obligation quote tailored to your specific project.
How long does exposed aggregate last?
When properly installed and sealed, exposed aggregate concrete can last 25-30+ years with minimal maintenance. Regular resealing every 3-5 years helps maintain its appearance and durability.
Is exposed aggregate slippery when wet?
Exposed aggregate actually provides excellent slip resistance due to its textured surface. The exposed stones create natural traction, making it a popular choice for pool surrounds and outdoor areas.
What stone colours are available for exposed aggregate?
We offer a wide range of aggregate blends including natural earth tones, coastal whites, charcoal blends, and multi-coloured mixes. We bring samples to your consultation so you can see the options against your home.
How soon can I drive on a new exposed aggregate driveway?
We recommend waiting at least 7 days before driving on a new exposed aggregate driveway to allow proper curing. Foot traffic is generally fine after 24-48 hours. We'll provide specific care instructions with every project.
