Our focus is to listen to our clients, understand their needs and provide the exceptional level of Concreting services.
We are a small company with the potential to also do larger projects if needed. Currently we are doing mainly concrete works as we would like to focus currently in that niche. Our simple statement is to make a win win situation between us and the client as we believe that is the only way to go.
We have a passion doing concrete we feel doing a concrete job and knowing it will be there to be enjoyed for many years to come is a pleasure to know.
In a word—yes. Manlay Constructions has worked with both residential and commercial clients over the years, however, the projects differ slightly for both our team and client. For our clients, residential property owners will need to navigate council approval (where required) as well as the support of other contractors (if the project calls for additional trades.) When we work with commercial builders, we usually communicate with a Project Manager who is scheduling, budgeting, and organising among the varied groups to manage permissibility, financial feasibility, and timelines. Further, some commercial spaces have different requirements than residential spaces meaning that the planning, construction, and sign-off steps can be different.
In another word—yes. On the other hand—maybe not? We always (always) recommend determining your needs for council permission before starting any project work or plans. While your private driveway may seem like your territory, some areas (and neighbourhoods) have agreements in place with local homeowners about what they can and can’t do. Instead of finding out after the fact that your time and money has gone to waste, we always recommend confirming your need for a permit before any other work begins. Not sure where to start? Contact our team directly and we can tell you where to take the first step.
By and large, living in New South Wales can come with a higher cost of living (and services!) than other parts of Australia. One of the bonuses to living in the greater Sydney area (from the Northern Beaches down to Sutherland Shire) is the number and availability of excellent trades teams who can reliably and quickly get the job done. As a result of these varying location factors, the cost of a concrete slab can vary based on geography—and total project prices can vary based on metro location, style, urgency, and design. While the average cost may vary slightly in the greater city area, the number of teams who have ample experience and expertise increases as well. If you need a rough estimate to help develop your project budget, feel free to speak directly with our team and we can discuss your unique project details.
Full coloured concrete driveways, pathways means the whole depths or thickness is coloured through the concrete, which means oxide is not sprayed on. It comes ready mixed with the colour in the concrete truck delivered from the concrete companies that we chose from the concrete plant. The advantage of this is that it never fades and does not need a sealer but it is recommended. talk to me about a price for heavy duty australian sealers that we can apply to your concrete driveway, concrete paths.
We base prices on cost price and then add our overhead and finally add a margin on the works factoring the timeframe it will take.
We charge on a set price as every job is different and most clients prefer this method and it creates clarity from the beginning.
We currently specialise in concrete slab, driveways, pathways, and all finishes we have experience in and try to make the experience for the customer a pleasant one.
We have a combined experience of more than 60 years, so there is a lot of experience and ideas we can bring with fresh ideas and approaches.
