Add texture, colour, and lasting kerb appeal to your property — Conwise Concreting specialises in exposed aggregate finishes for driveways, patios, pathways, and pool surrounds across Southeast Queensland.
Exposed aggregate concrete is one of the most popular premium finishes for residential and commercial properties. By removing the top layer of cement paste to reveal the natural stones, pebbles, and aggregates beneath, we create a surface that is not only visually stunning but also naturally slip-resistant and incredibly durable.
At Conwise Concreting, we offer a wide range of aggregate colours, sizes, and styles to complement any home or commercial space. Every job is finished with a professional-grade sealer for long-lasting protection and shine.

Timing expertise — perfect exposure every single time
Exposed aggregate is a decorative concrete finish where the top layer of cement paste is washed away to reveal the natural stones and pebbles within the concrete mix. The result is a textured, slip-resistant surface with a premium decorative appearance.
When properly installed and regularly sealed, exposed aggregate concrete can last 20–30 years or more. The stones and pebbles are extremely hard-wearing and resistant to traffic and weather.
We offer a wide range of aggregate colours including earthy tones, greys, whites, and blends. Stone sizes also vary from fine to coarse. We’ll bring samples to your site so you can choose the perfect look for your home.
Exposed aggregate is very low maintenance. We recommend resealing every 2–3 years to maintain the colour and protect the surface. Regular hosing and occasional light scrubbing keeps it looking great.
No — exposed aggregate is one of the safest concrete finishes available. The natural texture of the stones provides excellent grip even when wet, making it ideal for pool surrounds, pathways, and driveways.
Minor chips and cracks can be repaired, though achieving a perfect colour match on older surfaces can be challenging. We assess each repair individually and advise on the best approach before starting any work.
