Newer estates south of Centre Rd — waffle-raft house slabs on former market-garden clay (H-class), estate crossovers to developer spec, and alfresco-and-driveway packages.
Keysborough South is the newer estate pocket south of Centre Rd. The former market gardens have become new estates, and the ground underneath all of them is the same former market-garden clay — some of the most reactive soil in Melbourne. Most of the new blocks here classify as H-class sites, which means the slab design has to account for serious seasonal movement. We pour house slabs, shed slabs and new-estate driveways in Keysborough South to the engineer's drawings and the soil test, every time.
H-class sites need a proper slab — waffle raft or conventional, to the engineer's design — and we quote to the drawing, not to a generic square-metre rate. The beam depth, the mesh, the edge profiles and the slab type are all driven by the soil test. We flag the H-class requirements honestly at quote stage and walk you through what the soil test means and why the slab is designed the way it is. The slab is the foundation of the house — it's not the place to save.
The new-estate driveways in Keysborough South are usually the last piece after the house goes up. We coordinate with your builder, pour the driveway and any alfresco or patio slab to match, and handle the estate crossover to the developer's and council spec. Exposed aggregate alfresco-and-driveway packages are popular here — a finish that ties the alfresco to the front driveway. One crew, the full sequence, start to finish.

We quote to the engineer's design. The soil test classifies the site — most Keysborough South blocks are H-class — and the engineer's drawing specifies the beam depth, the mesh, the edge profiles and the slab type. We price the drawing, not a square-metre rate. We'll walk you through what the soil test means and why the slab costs what it does. A cheaper quote on the same drawing has been shaved somewhere.
Yes — that's most of our Keysborough South work. We pour the house slab at the builder's slab stage, then come back for the driveway and crossover once the frame is up and the levels are fixed. We confirm the levels with the builder before each pour, handle the estate crossover to the developer's spec, and schedule around the build program. You don't manage the back-and-forth — we talk to the builder directly and copy you in.
