From quoting to completing the job was done effortlessly and went above and beyond to do everything that was needed for our job.  Very professional and attention to detail was spot on. Thanks again for a job well done.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently had my backyard concreted by Jason and his team, and it was honestly the best experience I’ve ever had with a tradesperson. Jason was extremely courteous, professional, and helpful from start to finish. The quality of the work is outstanding — the finished result looks even better than we ever imagined. His attention to detail truly shows in the final product. What really stood out was how he went above and beyond. He cleaned my driveway and side walkway, even though they weren’t part of the project, and even blew dust and cobwebs out of my garage that were there before the job started. That level of care and pride in his work is rare. On top of all that, his quote was the most affordable out of the four we received, without compromising on quality in any way. I couldn’t recommend Jason highly enough to anyone looking to have concrete installed. Thank you so much, Jason — we are absolutely thrilled with the result!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly recommend Cube Concreting. Jason is extremely friendly, engaging, professional, and above all, very hardworking. While he may not be the cheapest option, I genuinely believe the price is worth it for the level of dedication and quality he delivers. He provided a clear quote and committed to a specific start and finish date — and he honoured that commitment. Jason and his team worked full days and consistently kept me updated with photos and videos, along with clear and open communication throughout the entire process. What really stood out was that he actually finished the job earlier than expected. On the final day, Jason worked solo and put in longer hours than required, purely to ensure the job was completed before several days of heavy rain that were forecast. That alone speaks volumes about his work ethic and commitment to doing things properly. The quality of the work is outstanding — even my neighbours commented on how good it looks. I’ve also noticed no cracking or issues since completion. If I ever needed concreting work done again, I would choose Jason and Cube Concreting without hesitation. I would strongly recommend him to anyone looking for reliable, high-quality workmanship.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I just had our driveway concreted by Cube Concreting and can't speak highly enough of my experience of dealing with Jason and his team and of the fantastic job they did. I rang them 12 days ago for a quote and the job was finished today - how good!!!! The driveway looks awesome and the cost of the job was very competitive and reasonable. Jason's communication, punctuality and great nature made dealing with them a pleasure - one of the best "tradie" experiences I've had. I would highly recommend this company to anyone needing a concrete job done in and around the Macedon Ranges!!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We couldn’t recommend Jason and his team highly enough! From the very beginning, Jason was incredibly responsive and knowledgeable. He came out to quote on a Sunday and had the job poured by Wednesday - an impressively quick turnaround without compromising on quality. Jason’s attention to detail and pride in his work really stood out. The finish on our pool surrounds is perfect. Not only was the site left spotless, but Jason also went above and beyond by offering to reinstate part of our fence that had been left open for access. Both Jason and Susie were a pleasure to have around - kind, respectful, and easy to communicate with throughout the whole process. If you’re looking for a concreting company you can trust, look no further!

Jason and his team have done such a wonderful job, we couldn’t be happier. Jason has been so easy to communicate with, very punctual and respectful of our property; we couldn’t recommend him more. If you’re after someone who has excellent workmanship, attention to detail, and genuinely cares, Cube Concreting is the way to go.

Broom finish concrete is one of the most practical and widely used surface finishes in residential and community concreting. It is created by dragging a broom across freshly poured concrete before it sets, leaving a series of fine grooves along the surface. These grooves improve traction, reduce slipping hazards and provide a durable finish suitable for areas exposed to frequent pedestrian or vehicle use.

This finish is particularly popular in Gisborne, Sunbury and Melton, where crossovers and footpaths need to withstand heavy use while remaining safe in all conditions. Families in Woodend, Diggers Rest and Deanside often choose broom finish concrete for its reliability and affordability, while homeowners in Fraser Rise, Taylors Hill, Macedon and Hillside appreciate its balance of function and simplicity.

Unlike more decorative styles such as stamped or exposed aggregate, broom finish is all about practicality. It provides a strong, long-lasting surface that blends seamlessly into residential streetscapes and public walkways. For this reason, councils and builders frequently specify broom finish for crossovers that link private driveways to public roads.

At Cube Concreting, we’ve been installing broom finish crossovers and footpaths for more than 20 years. Our experience ensures each project is completed with precision, delivering surfaces that are safe, functional and built to last across Greater Melbourne.

How It Works

Consultation & design

We meet with you in Gisborne, Sunbury, Melton or nearby suburbs to discuss your project. We’ll help determine whether broom finish concrete is the right choice for your crossover or footpath.

Preparation

The site is excavated, levelled and reinforced to ensure the surface can handle daily use, whether it’s from pedestrians, vehicles or both.

Pouring

Concrete is poured evenly into the prepared formwork and smoothed to the correct level.

Brooming

A broom is drawn across the surface while it’s still workable, creating grooves that improve grip and reduce slipperiness.

Sealing

A protective sealer may be applied to extend the life of the concrete and protect against stains or weather damage.

Final walkthrough

We check the finished surface with you to make sure it meets expectations before the area is ready for use.

This method provides reliable results for a range of projects, from residential footpaths in Macedon to larger crossovers in Fraser Rise or Taylors Hill.

Benefits of Broom Finish Concrete

Designed for crossovers and footpaths where safety is essential.
Non-slip texture that performs well in wet conditions.
Affordable compared to decorative finishes while still highly durable.
Suitable for high-use areas exposed to pedestrians, bikes, prams and vehicles.
Works well in both residential and community spaces across Gisborne, Sunbury, Melton and surrounding suburbs.
Minimal maintenance required, with longevity measured in decades.

Design Options and Practicality

Broom finish concrete is primarily chosen for its practicality, but it still offers flexibility in how it’s applied. The grooves can be adjusted to be finer or deeper depending on the site and desired level of grip. This makes it suitable for flat walkways in Melton as well as sloped crossovers in Sunbury or Hillside.

Homeowners in Gisborne and Deanside sometimes opt for coloured broom finish concrete, which introduces pigments into the mix. This allows the functional finish to match or complement surrounding landscaping, driveways or architectural features.

A common approach is to use broom finish on the crossover for safety and function, while pairing it with a more decorative finish such as exposed aggregate or stamped concrete on the main driveway. This combination provides the best of both worlds: safety at the street access point and style closer to the home.

Maintenance and Longevity

Maintaining broom finish concrete is simple. Regular sweeping and occasional hosing keep the grooves free from dirt and debris. Every few years, resealing enhances durability, maintains the non-slip properties and provides protection against stains.

Because of its grooved texture, broom finish retains good traction even as it ages. This makes it particularly valuable in suburbs such as Woodend and Macedon, where wet weather is common. In busier residential areas like Fraser Rise, Taylors Hill and Hillside, broom finishes stand up to daily vehicle crossings without losing functionality.

When installed correctly and maintained with minimal effort, broom finish concrete can last decades, making it a smart and cost-effective choice for households across Greater Melbourne.
