Patios & Alfresco done properly in St Ives
If you are in St Ives or anywhere else in North Shore, the assessment is free and we will tell you straight if the slab is not worth coating.
Outdoor concrete ages badly. Once it is stained, patched and mismatched with the house, a resurface brings the whole area back in two or three days for a fraction of what replacement costs.
We colour-match to your brickwork, render or decking, and carry the finish through the paths and steps so the yard reads as one surface instead of four different pours from four different decades.
Patios & Alfresco in St Ives: what to know locally
St Ives sits in the Ku-ring-gai Council area: large bush-setting blocks with generous driveways and pools. That shapes how we approach patios & alfresco here.
Sloping driveways need a firm anti-slip texture and sensible drainage so water does not sit on the surface. Long acreage driveways are done in sections so the whole run can be finished and cured without rushing. Older brick-home slabs tend to be oil-stained, pitted or worn, which is exactly what a resurfacing system hides and protects.
We also quote in nearby Ryde, Epping, Chatswood and Hornsby, so one visit to North Shore can cover several jobs.

Questions we get in North Shore
Can you match it to my house?
That is the usual brief. We take the colour off your brick, render or decking at the assessment rather than picking from a chart in isolation.
What about the expansion joints?
They get carried through the new surface, never bridged. Coating over a movement joint is how a resurface ends up cracked in a straight line twelve months later.
Can you do the paths and steps too?
Yes, and it is worth doing at the same time. Doing the patio alone tends to make the adjoining path look worse than it did before.
How soon can you look at my job in St Ives?
Usually within two or three business days. The assessment takes about 45 minutes — we measure up, probe the slab for moisture and photograph any cracks — and the written quote follows within two business days of that.
