Plain & Coloured Concrete Illawarra
Here at Driveways Plus Illawarra, we provide high-quality plain and coloured concrete solutions for homes and businesses across Wollongong, Shellharbour, Kiama, and the greater Illawarra region. Whether you're after a clean, simple slab or a coloured surface to match your home, our team delivers long-lasting results with a polished finish every time.
Benefits Of Plain & Coloured Concrete
When we install plain or coloured concrete, the transformation is immediate. The surface looks tidy, performs well under foot or vehicle traffic, and instantly upgrades the surrounding space. It’s one of the most versatile materials for driveways, patios, paths, and even alfresco areas.
Plain concrete is known for its durability and affordability. It creates a smooth, uniform finish that complements modern home designs and requires very little upkeep. It’s especially effective in high-use areas like driveways and pathways.
Coloured concrete adds visual appeal and can be tailored to suit your home’s exterior. Whether you want to highlight certain features or simply avoid a plain grey slab, coloured options allow for creative flexibility without sacrificing strength.
Both finishes are built to last and handle all weather conditions. Once sealed, they’re resistant to stains, UV damage, and daily wear — making them a smart, long-term investment.
Customisation Options Available
At Driveways Plus Illawarra, we offer a wide range of concrete colours and surface textures to help you achieve the right look for your home. Our coloured concrete is tinted using premium-grade oxides, which are mixed into the concrete before pouring to ensure colour depth and consistency.
Popular colour options include charcoals, earthy tones, terracotta, and soft greys — each suited to different architectural styles. The finish can also be adjusted depending on your preference, from smooth steel-trowel finishes to textured broom or stipple effects.
Coloured concrete can be combined with saw cuts or shaped formwork to add subtle patterning and definition. For driveways and entertaining areas, this helps create separation between zones while keeping the look cohesive.
If you’re after something clean, modern, and easy to maintain, plain or coloured concrete is one of the most efficient ways to upgrade your outdoor space — without compromising on durability or style.

Process of Installing Concrete Driveways in Illawarra
Preparation for Installation – Every job starts with site preparation. We clear the area, grade it for drainage, and compact the sub-base to create a strong, even foundation. Formwork is installed to define the area and control the final shape.
Pouring and Levelling – The concrete is mixed and poured to the correct depth, then levelled using industry-standard tools. For coloured concrete, oxides are added during the batching process to ensure an even tone throughout.
Finishing Touches – Once the concrete is in place, we apply your selected surface finish and cut expansion joints to prevent cracking. We then apply sealers to enhance the colour, protect the surface, and extend the lifespan of your new slab.
