Your final concrete driveway cost per m2 (per square meter) will vary according to the thickness of the concrete, driveway width and the style of finish you choose.
Note: If you choose not to have reinforcing it will save you around $12.00 per square meter on the prices below but will increase the chance of cracking over the life of your concrete project.

Plain concrete driveways are the cheapest driveway option and the costs above include light excavation, base fill up to 50ml thick, compacting, fitting reinforcing mesh, boxing and preparation of the area and laying plain 20MPA concrete with 19ml aggregate according to your choice of trowel or broom finish.
Note: On poorly drained or steep sites the excavation costs increase and drainage or additional base fill and compacting time can be required. You should expect some additional costs on difficult sites and this will vary from site to site. On particularly wet sites with poor drainage and weak substrates it can add as much as $20.00 per square meter to the finished cost.
Concrete driveways, patios and paths that are small and narrow can often look cheap and can cause issues for car drivers and passengers in particular when getting in and out of vehicles during wet weather and having to step onto muddy ground. Often it is false economy to skimp on driveway width as the cost of concrete driveways per square meter reduces as the total area of concrete increases. A wider driveway is far more welcoming and stately and can add significant street appeal to your property, often at little additional cost.
