Exposed aggregate is not a slab
Decorative driveways, shed slabs, footpaths and structural work attract different customers at very different prices. One services list makes decorative work look cheap and structural work look fussy.
Tradie websites
Concreter website design that shows the finish.
SiteDone builds and hosts websites for Australian concreters from $89 a month, live within 7 working days of us getting your details. Concreting is bought on the finish and on whether the job was done once properly, both of which are photographs rather than paragraphs. Driveways, slabs and decorative work get separated so the right customer lands on the right page. Send a voice note about the work you take on and we build the rest.

Why concreting quotes stall
It is a big, permanent, expensive job, and customers are nervous about all three of those things.
People cannot picture the finish
Plain, coloured, exposed, honed, stencilled. Many customers do not know the words and cannot imagine the result, so they often default to whatever the last quote showed them.
Access changes everything
Whether a truck can get close, whether it is barrowed, whether the old slab needs breaking out. It swings the price hugely and rarely arrives with the enquiry.
It is permanent, so people stall
Nobody wants to get a driveway wrong, because fixing it means starting again. Without prep and process written down, the safest choice feels like waiting.
How it works
One voice note, live in 7 working days
You stay on the tools. We write the pages, build the site and do the search groundwork.
Pages for your main kinds of pour
Driveways, shed and house slabs, paths, and decorative finishes: your main kinds of work can have their own pages, each written for the person searching for it. Core Hub includes two or three suburb or service pages and Local Dominator five to ten. On Starter your services share one Services page.
Finishes shown, not named
Photos of exposed, coloured and honed work so customers can point at what they want instead of guessing at a word they have never used.
An enquiry that asks about access
Rough size, what is there now, and whether a truck can get near it. The things that actually move the price, asked once in writing.
Your prep, written down
What you do about base, reinforcement and drainage, in plain terms. It is what separates a job done once from a job done twice, and it is rarely anywhere on a concreting site.
The full five steps are on the how it works page.

What happens if it doesn't work
The commitments that come with every build, not just the good-news version.
Live in 7 working days
Seven working days of our build time, counted from when we have everything we need. Miss it and your first month is free.
90 days to a real lead, or billing pauses
If no real lead reaches you within 90 days of going live, billing pauses and resumes the moment a lead comes in.
On the Core Hub and Local Dominator plans, with a verified Google Business Profile.
3 months to start, then month to month
No long-term contract. After your first 3 months, 30 days' notice to cancel and no exit fee. Your domain is yours from day one.
Quiet month? After your first 3 months you can pause billing for a month. Your site stays live.
The 7 working days counts our build time only, so it pauses while we are waiting on you, and anything reaching us before 12pm Melbourne time (AEST/AEDT) counts as arriving that working day. All five guarantees, and their limits, are on the guarantee page.
FAQs
Frequently asked questions about concreter websites
More on the full FAQ page if yours is not here.
Should each finish get its own page?
The ones people search for separately, yes, where your plan has room. Exposed aggregate and a shed slab are different jobs at different prices, and giving each its own page means the right customer arrives already understanding what they are looking at.
How important are photos?
They are most of the argument. Customers cannot picture the difference between honed and exposed from a word, but they can point at a photo. Phone photos in daylight work fine.
Should I put prices or square metre rates on the site?
That is your call. Access, base preparation and what is already there move the price so much that a flat rate often creates arguments later. Explaining what drives the cost usually works better than a number.
Can I talk about slab thickness and reinforcement?
You can describe your approach in general terms. We would keep specific numbers off the page, since those are engineering matters that vary by job and are not ours to publish on your behalf.
Should I show my licence on the site?
Yes, if you hold one. Several states license concreting above a set job value, and some require the licence number on advertising, including websites. Send us the details you want shown, and you stay responsible for holding the right licence and keeping it current.
Do I need to cover commercial work separately?
If you want it, yes. Builders and commercial clients are assessing scheduling, insurance and capacity rather than finish, which is a different argument from a domestic driveway.
How quickly can it be live?
Seven working days from when your details reach us, counting our build time only, so it pauses while we are waiting on you. No monthly fees until your site is live. The $49 domain registration is separate.
What if work goes quiet for a while?
Wet weather can stall a month of work. After your first 3 months you can pause billing for a month. The site stays live. One pause every 12 months.
Everything else is on the full FAQ page.
