Exposed aggregate – A sharp, textured finish that stands out
Broom or sponge swirl – A non-slip finish with subtle character
Proper Drainage for Every Concrete Installation
Good concrete work isn’t just about the finish... It’s about what’s underneath and how it performs over time. At Southern Buildworks, we make sure every driveway, patio, and path is laid with the correct falls to ensure proper water drainage. No pooling, no shortcuts.
We also install strip drains and soak pits where needed to manage runoff and protect your concrete from cracking or long-term water damage — especially important in Christchurch and Canterbury’s mixed weather conditions.
