Replacing Concrete Driveway - Costs ?

Abraham

I need to replace my driveway which is solid concrete but badly cracked & uneven etc from use over the years. Was thinking of getting nice black concrete imprint job done. Would the existing concrete need to be busted up and removed first ?
Driveway is straight in and at right angles to the LA footpath and the
area is 12m x 3m.
What needs to be done and what are the likely costs ?
My tks for any advice offered.

To do it properly yes, all the old stuff needs to go.

100/125 euro a sq meter should get u a long way.

Just be aware that the finish u have in mind sometimes
has a high correlation with the other half of indians so be careful who u get:)

Is it just me or are 90% of driveway contractors of no fixed abode?

I would suggest you find exampled of the finish you like and literally knock on doors to get opinions and recommendations, be not shy as it could save you!!!

There is a stone finish, in various colours and stone sizes available.
Its only about 10mm thick and is quickly applied by trowel over concrete.

Its ideal over existing concrete.
Costs around €60/sqm supplied and fitted.

PM for details.

A stamped concrete job for 36 sq mtrs shouldn't cost no more than 3500 unless there righty milking it. That is taking out old and putting in new.

Is that Resin bond?

I thought the resin bonded gravel was ferociously expensive?
