Concreting Jobs in South Brisbane

Looking to put your concreting skills to good use? Airtasker is a top spot to find solid jobs (pun intended). Whether you're keen for weekend side gigs or want to keep your schedule full-time, there’s a wide range of tasks up for grabs. From small patch-ups to full driveways, Airtasker lets you build a profile, score great reviews, and charge better rates over time. Here's a look at the concreting jobs that Taskers often pick up and how you can make a good income doing them.

Basic concreting – Steady work with solid rewards

Plenty of people just need a simple slab poured, maybe for a shed, a small patio, or a garden path. These smaller jobs are usually straightforward and quick to quote, making them ideal if you want consistent work without the fuss. Nail a few of these early on, and it’s easy to build trust and repeat business with homeowners looking for reliable help.

Driveways and paths – Bigger jobs, better paydays

Driveway jobs are popular on Airtasker, and they pay well because they take more time, materials, and know-how. Whether it’s laying new concrete or ripping out and replacing an old one, these tasks often come with good margins. Add in extras like exposed aggregate or decorative finishes, and you can charge a premium. If you're confident with a screed and know your way around a trowel, this kind of work can really lift your earnings.

Concrete repair – Quick jobs that add up

Cracks and chips are more than just eyesores; they can be trip hazards or let water in. Many Taskers pick up patching and resurfacing jobs that don’t take much time but still pay decently. This is perfect if you're after faster jobs that can be slotted between bigger projects. Plus, repairs are often urgent, so clients are willing to pay a bit more for someone who can get there quickly and do it right.

Formwork and prep – Where it all starts

Not every job on Airtasker is about pouring concrete. Some people need help setting up formwork, levelling the ground, or installing mesh and reo bars before the pour. If you’ve got experience with prep work, you’ll find plenty of jobs that others might not want, which means less competition for you. And if you offer both prep and pour, you’ve got a neat little package clients will appreciate.

Concrete removal – Tough work, but worth it

It’s not the cleanest or easiest task, but breaking up and removing old concrete pays well, especially if you’ve got the tools and muscle to get it done safely. These jobs might include taking out old paths, damaged flooring, footings, or broken slabs. If you’ve got a jackhammer, a trailer, and some hustle, this kind of work can be a decent earner on the side or part of a full-time run.

Concreter – Tips to earn more on Airtasker

To get ahead on Airtasker, bring your own gear. Clients love it when you’re ready to go. It’s also worth offering package deals that include both labour and materials or bundling in extras like sealing, decorative finishes, or rubbish removal. 

Don’t forget: turning up on time, doing clean work, and being friendly makes a big difference. It helps you rack up 5-star reviews and gets you rebooked faster. And if you’ve got special skills, like stamped concrete, coloured finishes, or experience with eco mixes, make sure to shout about it in your profile.
