What Surry Hills concrete jobs actually cost.
Numbers pulled from typical Sydney jobs, GST-inclusive and supplied + installed. Your scope will land somewhere on this band. The Karven calculator narrows it to a single number you can quote.
- 01
Exposed aggregate adds 35 to 45% over a broom finish because of the extra rinse, longer hold time, and aggregate cost.
- 02
If the pour is more than 30m from the kerb a long-reach pump may be needed — that's an extra $300 to $500 on the callout.
- 03
Reinforcement on a Surry Hills driveway is usually SL72 mesh; structural slabs over 150mm switch to N12 reo bar at 200mm centres.
- 04
Most local suppliers have a 4m³ minimum delivery, so small slabs (under 24m² at 100mm) pay the same delivery as a 40m² job.

How much does a concrete pour cost in Surry Hills?
Most Surry Hills concrete jobs land between $4,800 and $11,200, with the typical job around $6,500. The unit pricing here covers a 40m² driveway, mesh + broom finish, supplied + poured inc GST. Larger spans, premium finishes and hard access push you toward the top end; straightforward swaps and standard specs sit near the bottom.
What affects the concrete jobs price in Surry Hills?
Five things move the number most: scope (size, span, thickness), material grade, site access (driveway, levels, parking for a truck), labour rate set by the crew you pick, and any compliance work specific to the Sydney council. The Karven calculator asks for each input and recalculates the total as you type.
Are these prices including GST?
Yes. Every figure on this page is GST-inclusive, supplied and installed. The Karven quoting tool defaults to GST-inclusive line items and adds the 10% line at the bottom of the customer PDF so the maths is transparent.
How quickly can I get a written quote for a concrete pour in Surry Hills?
Karven generates a branded itemised PDF in 4 minutes once the job inputs are in. Surry Hills customers typically get the PDF on the same visit, e-signed within 24 hours. Sign up free, your first week is on us, no card.
Do Surry Hills concrete jobs need council approval?
Most residential driveways and slabs are exempt or only need a development application in NSW; commercial pours, anything inside a heritage overlay, or stormwater-impacting jobs typically need approval. If a permit or compliance check is needed, the Karven template prompts for the line item so it lands on the customer's PDF — no surprise costs after the job starts.
