Anyone know of a good company who do pattern imprinted concrete driveways? Only managed to find a couple on Google and I really want to get a few quotes. If you have any idea of the cost per sq/m that would be great too.

I had a few quotes a few years ago. Ludicrously expensive ! Some were way up at 9k was about 80m2.
Sorry cant remember the Co.s now, they did keep pestering me, like the glazing firms, bringing the price down each time. If they couldn't give me the proper price first time they were sent away.

To my unexperienced mind it should be cheaper than mono blocks....you lay the concrete(easy), imprint(easy) and dye it...simple as that. With the blocks you need to lay eash one individually and thus it should take a lot longer. Non?

HI Andy,

Speaking from experience the stuff your talking about looks like exactly what it is, Concrete painted.

Where are you ? I could give you a few names of guys i've used and would recommend.

Costs for mono block roughly £40 / £50 sqm supplied and fitted, any colour, any pattern and a far nicer looking job. Plus if your red italian P&J drips oil its easy to sort by lifting 1 block.

Best of luck

Hi Derek

Still doing a bit of research so any contacts would be great thanks! www.stoneagescotland.com  this is the company that Nick is using and their stuff looks pretty good. I've still to go out and look at a few places that have the concrete done as I've no idea how it can be more expensive.

thanks for the help!!
