Semi-rural blocks and acreage between Keysborough and Dandenong South — big shed slabs, hardstand for trucks and machinery, and long driveways on big blocks.
Bangholme is the semi-rural pocket between Keysborough and Dandenong South. The blocks are bigger, the setbacks are wider, and the concreting work here is different from the residential streets closer in. The big blocks mean big sheds — workshops, machinery sheds, and storage sheds that need slabs sized for what sits on them. And the proximity to the Dandenong South industrial precinct means commercial crossovers and hardstand for workshops and yards that spill over the boundary.
Shed slabs on acreage are a Bangholme specialty. The slab for a shed has to be sized for what goes in it — a garden shed doesn't need the same slab as a workshop with a hoist, and a machinery shed running a forklift needs a different pour again. We ask what's going in the shed before we quote, and we size the thickness, the mesh and the joint layout to the loading. A shed slab poured too thin for what it carries will crack under the first heavy load.
The driveways on Bangholme's big blocks are long runs from the street to the house or shed, often with a turning area. We pour them with the same base and reinforcement standard as everywhere else in the southeast — excavated, based, reinforced and jointed for the reactive clay. The long runs mean the finish has to be consistent end to end, and the falls have to shed water the whole way to the street. We handle the City of Greater Dandenong crossovers where the driveway meets the nature strip.

It depends on what's going in the shed. A garden shed is fine on a 100mm slab with mesh; a workshop with a hoist needs thicker concrete and engineered thickening at the hoist points; a machinery shed running a forklift needs 150mm-plus with designed joints. We ask what you're putting in it before we quote, and we size the slab to the loading — not to a square-metre rate.
Yes. We pour hardstand rated to the loading — B-double, forklift, or light vehicles — with a compacted base, designed joints, and the right thickness for what's going across it. We put the joint layout on the drawing before we pour so the cracks end up where we put them. We carry $20 million public liability and we'll put AS 3600 compliance in writing on the quote.
