These are the Cardinia rates our quotes are being written from right now (September 2026). Working rates until we measure the job; after that the written quote is the price, full stop.

Estate driveways around Pakenham and Officer commonly run 40 to 60 m²; a big farm shed base can be double that.
Budget bracket $0 Covers preparation, steel, concrete and the finish. Shire permit fees stay with the council. The single written figure follows the measure. Make it a written quote

What it is doing with your numbers

Area times the current band for the job, plus $35 per square metre when an old surface has to come out, plus fifteen percent when the site is sloped, tight or needs a staged pour. Shire permit fees stay out because they belong to the council, not the contractor. The result is a truthful bracket for planning; the single figure comes from a free measure. The cost guide unpacks each input and the specification shows what every rate is built from.
