Last minute Home Improvements. Out Top Tips for getting your home in order.

Spruce up the house in time for Christmas

Side pathways

With just under 3 weeks until Christmas Day, it’s a great time to perform last minute clean ups & home improvements around the house, that will add extra comfort & value to your home and give you a sense of completion as the year comes to a close. 

Top Tips to get your home ready for the New Year

  1. Declutter the front & back yard. 
  2. Assess your driveway – Is it time for a respray or reseal. This is a quick & cost effective solution that delivers maximum street appeal using a limited budget.
  3. Pool Area – No doubt you’ll be spending extra time around the pool in the New Year, consider resealing your concrete for longevity and to add that extra holiday feel poolside. 
  4. Guerney – Man’s best friend! Give the entire house a wash down, over time bricks can collect dust and windows too! A half day spent on guerneying can bring your home up like new, give extra attention to the eaves and remove all those cobwebs!
  5. Do you deserve a Man Cave? – Creating a Man Cave/Shed can double as a functional entertaining area for the guys and also house the tools & lawn mowers etc. We can assist with concrete footings, shed slabs & retained areas.

Concrete Alfresco Area

New Alfresco Area for Summer

Raised concrete slab Alfresco

With the warmer weather ahead of us, we’ve been producing some beautiful Alfresco Areas for several residential clients. 

Concrete is so versatile and the myriad of finishes available make it easy to match your homes decor and vibe. 

We’ve prepared plain slabs ready for tiling, decorative concrete areas such as stencilcrete and stampled, colour sealed concrete and polished concrete, in addition to exposed aggregate. Which has a top notch lux finish that is currently trending. 

Exposed Ag is created by removing the surface fines from the concrete resulting in the internal aggregates being exposed highlighting the natural elements of the stone. Exposed aggregate concrete is ideal for use on outdoor areas, the more heavily exposed finish is perfect for driveways or areas requiring more grip (where the kids will be playing)

Local Concreters Near Me

Which areas do we service?

New Coloured Concrete Driveway

With lockdowns ending, we’ve had a significant increase in enquiries coming through for our concreting services. The BIG question is always, which area do you service?

We’re based in Penrith, and travel up to 2 hours for our clients. We understand that rural home owners have a difficult time trying to get Trades out to quote and do jobs, and we pride our business on going that bit extra to service out of area clients. That includes the Lower & Mid Blue Mountains, North Rihcmond, Hawkesbury, Kurrajong (we have atleast 1 job a week in the Jong), Picton, Camden, Leppington, just to name a few.

This week, we’ve returned to Kurrajong for some extensive concrete works (pictured) it’s so good to be outdoors doing what we love!

Blue Mountains Concreting Crew does it again!

Another happy customer. Faulconbridge Home owners happy with the result!

Blue Mountains residents can call on TCB Concrete for all their concreting needs. 

We recently completed a new concrete driveway and house surrounds at this beautifully maintained home in Faulconbridge last week. 

Charcoal was the colour the owners opted for, to contrast with the landscaping & greenery and add to the appealing facade of this home. 

As you can see from the hand cove finish, the attention to detail is second to none. 

We regularly work with local council to ensure your job is poured and finished to spec & council legislation. 

Works that require approval include:

  • opening the road for services
  • constructing a driveway
  • placing a temporary fence around a construction site, or
  • forming a road.

Inspections are undertaken.

A minimum of $20m public liability insurance is required (with cover for the duration of the works) – which TCB Concrete holds.
