    Default concrete price brisbane

    Guys i was quoted today @ $241/mt for 1mt only in a small truck
    (im 1klm from the concrete depot). Sound a bit dear to you ? I rang another 2 places & one didnt want to know about me (fair enough, small job) & the other kept ringing out.

    G'day Mick, I was speaking to a bloke at redimix last week and they are quoting about $180 a metre. Where in brissie are you?

    I've seen a mini concrete truck driving around with signs on the side about doing small amounts, but I can 't remember the name... Sorry...

    I'm in the city too, at Windsor.
    Cheers, Richard

    Well.... assuming there wasn't too much dihydrogen monoxide and solar activity was appropriate.... I've no idea either.....

    Sorry...

    Still want to see the photos though! I'll let you enjoy a few well earned drinks tonight!

    The day after pouring should be fine. The guys who do housing slabs are getting the timbers off the afternoon of their pours (which is why a lot of houses are very suss these days)

    Just keep off it and to be really sure, cover it with damp hession to make it dry out and cure as slow as possible. If you have the time to do this, it will cure stronger.
