Concrete Pavement Building in Auckland
Blake Civil Construction builds concrete pavements in Auckland for commercial, industrial, and residential projects. From heavy-duty loading areas and warehouse hardstands to shared paths and public footpaths, we construct reinforced concrete pavements designed to carry the loads your site demands — and last decades under Auckland conditions.
What is Concrete Pavement Building in Auckland?
Concrete pavement building is the construction of flat, load-bearing concrete slabs laid on a prepared subbase to create durable surfaces for vehicles, pedestrians, or both. Unlike flexible asphalt pavements, concrete pavements are rigid structures that spread loads across a wide area, making them the preferred choice for heavy vehicle zones, loading docks, and areas subject to repeated point loads. A properly built concrete pavement in Auckland starts with subgrade assessment, followed by compacted granular subbase preparation, steel reinforcing placement, control joint layout, and a concrete pour to NZS 3104 specification. The result is a surface that resists rutting, handles heavy axle loads, and performs through Auckland's wet climate without the ongoing patching that asphalt requires.
- Commercial and industrial concrete pavements for warehouses, distribution centres, and logistics yards
- Heavy-duty hardstands for truck turning areas, container storage, and plant yards
- Car park concrete paving for retail, commercial, and multi-use developments
- Public footpaths and shared paths built to Auckland Transport and council standards
- Residential concrete paths, patios, and access ways
- Subbase preparation, reinforcing mesh and rebar placement, control joint layout, and finishing
Based in Coatesville, Blake Civil Construction has built concrete pavements for commercial yards, council infrastructure, subdivision paths, and residential properties across Auckland. Our crews handle the full scope from subgrade preparation through to the finished pour — so you get a pavement built right from the ground up.
When You Need Us
When You Need Concrete Pavement Building in Auckland in Auckland
Commercial Yard Needs a Heavy-Duty Hardstand
Your warehouse or logistics yard needs a concrete hardstand that can handle loaded trucks, forklifts, and container handling equipment without cracking or rutting under daily use.
Car Park Requires Concrete Paving
A retail centre, office block, or multi-use development needs a concrete car park built with correct falls, drainage, and line-marking provision for long-term performance.
Loading Dock Area Subject to Repeated Heavy Loads
Your loading dock or receival area takes constant point loads from truck jacks, pallet jacks, and container legs. Concrete pavement handles these loads where asphalt would rut and fail.
Public Footpath or Shared Path Construction
Auckland Council or Auckland Transport requires new footpaths or shared pedestrian-cycle paths built to specification as part of a subdivision, development, or infrastructure upgrade.
Industrial Plant Yard for Heavy Equipment Storage
An industrial site needs a concrete pad for storing heavy plant, machinery, or materials. The pavement must carry concentrated loads without settlement or surface damage.
Residential Concrete Path and Access Way
Your home needs concrete paths connecting the house to the garage, garden areas, or a secondary dwelling — built on stable subbase with proper drainage falls.
Fuel Station or Wash Bay Concrete Pavement
A fuel station forecourt or vehicle wash bay needs a chemical-resistant concrete pavement with bunded edges and drainage to meet environmental compliance.
Subdivision Infrastructure Footpaths and Crossings
A residential subdivision needs footpaths, vehicle crossings, and shared paths built to council standards before titles can be issued and lots handed over.
Our Process
Our Concrete Pavement Building in Auckland Process
Blake Civil Construction follows a systematic approach for every concrete pavement building in auckland project.
Site Assessment and Subgrade Investigation
We inspect the site, review the plans, and assess subgrade conditions. Auckland's clay soils often need specific subbase designs, so we check ground bearing capacity before confirming the pavement build-up.
Subbase Preparation and Compaction
We excavate to formation level and place compacted granular subbase — typically GAP 40 or AP40 aggregate — in layers to the specified depth. Each layer is compacted and tested to meet density requirements.
Formwork, Reinforcing, and Joint Layout
Timber or steel formwork is set to the correct levels and falls. Reinforcing mesh or rebar is placed on chairs at the design height, and control joint positions are marked to manage cracking.
Concrete Pour and Placement
Ready-mix concrete is delivered to NZS 3104 specification and placed within the formwork. We coordinate pour schedules with the batching plant so concrete arrives at the right consistency and within workability time.
Finishing and Control Joints
The surface is screeded, floated, and finished to the specified texture — broom finish for grip, trowelled for smooth surfaces, or exposed aggregate where specified. Control joints are cut within the required timeframe.
Curing, Protection, and Handover
The pavement is cured using spray-on curing compound or wet curing methods to reach full strength. We protect the slab from traffic during curing and hand over with a clean, finished surface ready for use.

Why Choose Us
Why Choose Blake Civil for Concrete Pavement Building in Auckland?
Built for Heavy Vehicle Loads
We design and build concrete pavements to carry the actual loads your site handles — from standard car traffic through to fully loaded trucks and container handling equipment. Slab thickness, reinforcing specification, and joint spacing are all calculated for the traffic your pavement will see.
NZS 3104 Concrete Specification
Every concrete pour is specified to NZS 3104 — the New Zealand standard for concrete production. We work with local ready-mix suppliers including Allied and Firth to ensure the right mix design, strength grade, and slump for each pavement application.
Proper Subbase Preparation
A concrete pavement is only as good as what sits underneath it. We excavate to stable subgrade, place and compact granular subbase in controlled layers, and verify compaction density before any concrete is poured. Skipping subbase work is where pavements fail — we do not skip it.
Control Joint Design to Manage Cracking
Concrete shrinks as it cures, and without properly spaced control joints, it cracks randomly. We lay out control joints at calculated intervals based on slab thickness and panel geometry so any shrinkage cracking occurs where it is designed to — in the joints, not across the surface.
Auckland Weather and Ground Knowledge
We build concrete pavements across Auckland year-round and know how local conditions affect the work. From managing pours in wet weather to dealing with clay subgrades that swell and soften after rain, our crews adjust methods to suit what Auckland's climate throws at the job.
Full-Scope Civil Contractor
As a civil construction company, we handle the entire pavement scope — excavation, subbase, formwork, reinforcing, pour, and finishing — under one contract. One crew, one point of contact, and no gaps between trades.
