Concrete For Driveways FAQs
How thick should concrete be for a driveway?
For a residential driveway that will only carry cars and light vehicles, a concrete thickness of 100mm (4 inches) should be enough when properly reinforced with mesh and laid on a well-compacted sub-base. For driveways that will carry heavier vehicles or be used more often, a thickness of 150mm (6 inches) is recommended. The concrete should be laid on a 100mm sub-base of MOT Type 1 or similar material to give it enough support and drainage.
What strength of concrete should
you use for a driveway?
For a residential driveway, C25/30 or C28/35 strength concrete is generally recommended, with a minimum compressive strength of 25-28 N/mm². This strength gives the driveway enough durability to withstand vehicle weights, freeze-thaw cycles, and general wear.
How long does concrete take to cure for a driveway?
Concrete driveways are typically strong enough for foot traffic after 24-48 hours, but shouldn’t bear vehicle weight for at least 7 days. The complete curing process takes about 28 days for the concrete to reach full design strength.
How much space do I need
for a Driveway concrete delivery?
A volumetric concrete mixer typically needs about 3-4 metres of width and 10-12 metres of length for safe operation and manoeuvring on-site. The vehicle needs enough overhead clearance (about 4 metres) to avoid things like trees or power lines. For tight spaces, please discuss with our team beforehand, as our experienced drivers can often work with more limited spaces when necessary.
How much does it cost for a concrete driveway?
A concrete driveway in the UK typically costs from £65-£85 per square metre for standard finishes, depending on complexity, site access and preparation needs. For an average single-car driveway (about 25 square metres), expect to pay £1,625-£2,125, including excavation, preparing of the sub-base and basic finishing. Extra features like decorative finishes, edging or drainage will increase this cost.
