Our Process For Installing Concrete Crossovers in Melbourne
Check For Underground Utilities
We start by checking the area for any underground utility lines that could affect installation.
Determine Boundaries
We survey the property, determine your land boundary, and mark any underground utility cables under the area. Then, we use wooden stakes to demarcate the project area.
Excavate Topsoil
We bring in specialised equipment to excavate topsoil from the area and level it for an even surface.
Set Up Formwork
Concrete forms are set to create the mould for your concrete installation.
Compact Soil and Add Reinforcement
Depending on the soil quality, we may add sand and gravel to create a thicker base and ensure firmer soil. After compacting the soil, we add reinforcing mesh, if necessary.
Pouring Concrete and Levelling
Our team carefully pours the concrete and levels it to avoid any cracks. This is also when we apply your desired concrete finish.
Setting and Curing
Once the concrete sets, the curing process requires daily watering for a few days. Conversely, you can use a sealant for a nonporous surface that doesn’t stain and is more resistant to wear and tear.

Advantages of Installing Concrete Crossovers
Not sure if installing a concrete crossover on your Melbourne property is the right choice? Here are some of the benefits you might be missing out on.
Improve Accessibility
A concrete crossover can make it easier for elderly and disabled people to access a property, whether they’re residents or a visitor. This is especially true for people who struggle with mobility issues and use mobility aids like wheelchairs or scooters. With a concrete crossover, there’s no need to climb or go down any steps, making it easier to enter or exit the property.
If you own a commercial property that operates as a business location, accessibility is a common aspect that customers look for. In this regard, having a concrete crossover also improves your brand image.
Improves Safety
Did you know that a concrete crossover can make your property safer, too? And not just for residents and visitors who use mobility aids, but for vehicles as well. By building a crossover on your residential and commercial property, you make it easier for vehicles to enter and exit your driveway.
This reduces the number of accidents and the risk of vehicles suffering from damage. Moreover, it improves visibility for drivers and reduces the chances of collisions.
Add Value To Your Property
Besides its functional benefits, a concrete crossover can also improve your property’s curb appeal. It does this by providing a smooth transition from your driveway to the street. And once you decide to sell your property, features like a driveway and crossover are likely to improve its value. These additions make a favourable impression on potential buyers. After all, some people are willing to pay more for the convenience of a crossover.
Improve Drainage Around Your Property
In addition to the functionality that a well-constructed crossover can provide, it also offers some long-term benefits. When properly installed, it can improve drainage in and around your property, thereby preventing flooding. With a crossover in place, rainwater can easily flow from your property to the street.
