Concrete Services

Concrete Raft Slabs

Engineered raft slab foundations for new homes and light commercial builds across Geelong and the Bellarine. Site prep to finished slab, coordinated with your builder and engineer. Quotes back within 24 hours.

A Level, Stable Base for Your Build

Raft slabs are the foundation of most new residential and light commercial builds in the Geelong and Bellarine region. Select Civil Group delivers concrete raft slab foundations engineered to suit local soil conditions and building requirements, providing a stable, level base for your construction project.

Our team manages the complete slab process from site preparation and formwork through to reinforcement placement, concrete pouring, and finishing. We work with your builder and engineer to ensure the slab meets all specifications, is poured on schedule, and is finished to the required tolerances. Coordination with plumbers, electricians, and other trades for in-slab services is part of how we operate.

Andrew is on the tools and on site for every job, so you deal directly with the person running the pour from the first quote through to the final level check. No subbie chains, no chasing the office for an update, just a slab done right and ready for your frame.

What We Build

From residential house slabs to light commercial foundations, every job is quoted on the specifics of your site and engineer's drawings.

Residential Raft Slabs

Engineered raft slab foundations for new homes across Geelong and the Bellarine. Poured to your engineer's spec, finished to tolerance, and ready for the frame on schedule.

Site preparation and formwork for a concrete slab in Geelong

Site Prep & Formwork

We prepare the ground, set levels and install formwork to the correct dimensions and heights before anything gets poured. Getting this stage right is what keeps a slab flat and true.

Reinforcement & Pour

Steel reinforcement is placed to the engineer's layout before the pour. Concrete is placed, vibrated and finished to the specified tolerances in a single coordinated operation.

In-slab plumbing and electrical service coordination before a concrete pour

In-Slab Service Coordination

Plumbing rough-ins, conduits and other in-slab services need to be in the ground before the pour. We coordinate directly with your plumber and electrician so nothing gets missed and the programme stays on track.

How a Job Runs

Quote to handover, the same six steps on every job. No surprises, no scope creep, no chasing for updates.

Frequently Asked

The questions we get most about concrete raft slabs.

We pour concrete raft slabs for new residential homes, extensions and light commercial builds. Every slab is designed to suit the local soil conditions, the engineering spec and the builder's programme. We handle the full process - site prep, formwork, reinforcement, pour and finishing.

Cost depends on the slab size, soil conditions, engineering requirements, in-slab services and site access. Each job is different. We provide an obligation-free written quote within 24 hours once we have the site address, your engineer's drawings and a rough scope of the work.

Yes - working alongside the builder and engineer is standard practice for us. We coordinate on programme, work to the engineer's drawings, and communicate directly with your builder so the slab is ready when the frame goes up. We also coordinate with plumbers and electricians for in-slab services.

Most residential raft slabs take three to five working days from site prep through to finished pour, depending on the size of the slab, the complexity of the in-slab services and weather on pour day. We confirm a programmed start and pour date as part of the quote so your builder can plan around it.

We pour concrete raft slabs across Geelong, the Bellarine Peninsula, Torquay and the surrounding regions, including Ocean Grove, Leopold, Drysdale, Barwon Heads and Point Lonsdale. If you are in the region and not sure whether we come to you, just ask.

Yes. Select Civil Group carries full public liability insurance and workers compensation cover on every job. Certificates of currency are available on request.
