We have used Brook Concrete with Col, Troy and Mick on 4 other occasions two were just plain…read moreconcrete and 2 were stamped and coloured, all were well priced with perfect results. This time we had to replace a driveway so decided to make some changes to better fit our changed lifestyle - the old concrete had been here when we bought in 1979. Troy came and measured and we discussed the changes. I wanted a plain coloured slab but strong enough to survive large utes with their extra weight. He provided good advice which I accepted and the quote was in our letterbox the next day and I accepted it. They kept me well informed as I had commitments, as did they. They removed the old driveway in a morning with their BobCat and when they left the place was neat and tidy with the changed layout already dialled in via the screened base. I had to do some stormwater changes under the slab so they gave me a free day to do that. They then came the following day to complete the form work and the pour happened over 2 days because of the complications with the upper portion of the slab. The two pour days were cold, very windy days which made the finishing a lot harder then normal with leaves blowing over the fresh concrete while they were colouring it prior to final finish screed. The final sealing happened ~1 week later to allow the slab to cure before it was sealed to keep out stains and dirt. It was a great job, well executed and painless for us.

I recently bought a home that was inspected by Steve Koelewyn of Ausinspect. He was fantastic…read more Not only does he have many years of experience as a house and pest inspector, but he's also a builder. So he was able to give a very detailed written report of his inspections, along with recommendations about how issues might be addressed in the future. But his real differential is his video. He records video and audio commentary as he goes around the building, so you have a record of his observations and recommendations that corresponds to the physical locations he's talking about. He can point out cracks, show you how things are connected. He can show you termite damage. He includes thermal imaging. It's really an amazing, full service, and not really for much more than I've paid for a standard building and pest inspection before. He adds some commentary to the start and end of the video, giving you an up-front summary. I've already used selected bits of his video to get a quote for some planned renovations before the builder has even seen it because of Steve's detailed discussion. An excellent service. Highly recommended.
