Precast Concrete Products NSW & QLD

Precast concrete is made off-site using a mould to shape the concrete. This is the primary difference between precast concrete and concrete made on-site. It is usually made by pouring concrete into a mould with wire and reinforced with prestressed cable. The concrete is then cured and transported to the site where it’s put in place.

Because precast concrete is made in a controlled environment and additional strengthening techniques can be applied, the final concrete product is stronger than concrete poured on-site. Moreover, because moulds are used to shape the concrete, precast is highly flexible and can be created for a wide range of shapes and sizes. Overall, the process is generally faster, safer, and less costly than using standard concrete.

Compared to standard concrete, there are several advantages to using precast concrete. These include:

• Speed of construction
• Reliable supply of product—production not affected by weather
• High level of performance in terms of durability, flood & fire resistance & sustainability
• Highly flexible in terms of shape, size & finish options
• Can incorporate plumbing & electrical features

At Graham’s Precast Concrete Products, we’re always taking measures to make sure you get a high-quality and effective concrete solution. We perform a visual inspection of each product after casting to check for cracks or other minor defects that could affect the concrete’s overall quality and effectiveness.

We’ve been continuously refining our process for over four decades to make sure that everything you get from us is more than capable of fulfilling its duties. Companies throughout Queensland and New South Wales use us for their concrete product needs because everything we deliver is high-quality.

Virtually any sector can feel the advantages of precast concrete products (including its flexibility and durability), which is why our clients come from many diverse fields. The requirements for our products typically vary from one business to another, and we can scale our service to match your specifications.

Rural, Commercial & Industrial companies are among some of our clients, but plenty of industries could use concrete to improve their own operations. Graham’s Precast Concrete Products offers a flexible service that can benefit any business in need of concrete tanks, pipes, and more; make sure you take a look at our designs today.

The answer to this depends on the product you want, and any unique requests or specifications you may have. For example, larger septic tanks naturally take longer as they require more concrete, and the same is generally true of our other creations; we never rush the casting process.

Once the concrete’s ready for delivery, you can expect it within a couple of days at a time that’s convenient for you, depending on your location. We have four delivery trucks working tirelessly throughout the week to deliver your precast products and always aim to get them to your project site as soon as possible.

Every job and project is different, and some may see more benefits from a precast concrete product compared to steel or other common materials. Concrete is excellent under compression and jobs that require these properties always turn to concrete. This doesn’t mean concrete is the perfect fit for every job – but it’s a cost-effective approach, which often has more versatility than steel.

We can complete your concrete products in a lot less time than the steel equivalent would require, as concrete casting is a very streamlined process. The resulting products are also better at providing insulation, which may be a priority for you depending on the project’s unique needs.

You can expect your precast concrete products to last a long time – we make sure that everything we deliver is sturdy enough to handle wear and tear over decades. These concrete products actually become even stronger as time passes and the structure continues to slowly cure.

Our precast products could last up to a century with the correct care, and maintenance is rarely more complex than simply cleaning the structure regularly or arranging inspections. Septic tanks in particular usually require annual servicing, especially as they’re generally inaccessible otherwise.

This largely depends on your own preferences, and the overall aesthetic of a project – but concrete’s versatility allows it to match almost any setting. On top of this, precast concrete is durable enough to avoid many natural signs of age, helping it retain a youthful look over the years.

We can also custom-make these products in certain sizes and designs to match a project, and it’s even possible for you to paint the concrete any colour you want. Precast concrete offers a distinct style that blends form and function with ease.
