ITALIAN BY ROOTS & DESIGN.
A BIT ABOUT GIUSEPPE PAPPARELLA,
OWNER OF DURACON CONCRETING GROUP

After several years in the hospitality business, which was his second passion, both in Italy and around the world, Giuseppe began to focus more on his true love for concrete work. Like many great ideas, Duracon had humble beginnings. In 2013, Giuseppe emigrated from Italy to Australia with a simple goal – to establish a successful business based on his passion for concreting. Fast forward a few years, and his dream was realised with the establishment of Duracon Concreting in 2017.

With many years of experience in concreting and formwork, both in Melbourne and abroad, Giuseppe knows precisely what it takes to achieve top-quality results for his clients. His expert workmanship is heavily influenced by his Italian heritage and generational knowledge, as he is the second generation of concreters. It’s also evident in his appreciation for sculptural beauty, which is evident in each and every one of the completed projects.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Giuseppe is such a pleasure to deal with. He did the resealing of our driveway and backyard concreted areas, did his best work working around this crazy weather around. He even came around to check back on the work a week or so later for any issues post the rain that fell after the work was completed.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 5 Stars.  Realy happy with Giuseppe and his crew and the work they did for us. We had a driveway that was too steep and needed to be re-graded.  Giuseppe and his guys came in and removed the old driveway and laid down a new exposed agg driveway for us.  Looks fantastic and is so much more functional now.  Really happy with the results and would recommend without hesitation.

In 2022 Giuseppe and Duracon Concreting poured a slab for our house extension. We were so pleased with his work that a year later we asked him back to pour an exposed aggregate driveway.Giuseppe has always been easy to communicate with, professional and keeps his word. We would have no problems recommending his work to anyone needing a concreter.

Giuseppe’s workmanship was excellent. The job was completed in a timely manner and to an exceptional standard. He replaced the old paving with new concrete and blended it with the old concrete by acid washing and applying a coloured sealer. He was in contact at every stage of the job and is extremely reliable. A true gentleman. A true craftsman.

I decided to go with Duracon for my concreting and do not have any regrets. I had strict requirements for my ~70m2 concrete pathway, including strict drainage requirements and grooved construction joints.From when Giuseppe came on site to provide a quote, all the way through to the final coat of sealant, Giuseppe has been attentive, respectful and accommodating. For example, I needed a foundation for my gate post, which Giuseppe and his team helped excavate and fill with concrete for no additional cost. Another example is the colour sealing of the plain alfresco slab to match the colour of the coloured concrete.Pictures tell a thousand words, and I can only say good things about the quality of the workmanship and final product. This is simply the best concreting works I have seen.

I would wholeheartedly recommend Giuseppe and his team. I now have a beautiful driveway with kerbs on both sides to retain the garden. The driveway rounds out into a double carport and the kerbs curve along both sides perfectly. The job became even more difficult when they took up the existing concrete and found that the base was soft and spongy but Giuseppe solved this using extra stones and aggregate. They managed to take up the existing concrete and replace the driveway and kerbs with only minimal damage to the garden on both sides. The work is of the highest quality and Giuseppe was a pleasure to deal with.

Giuseppe is the complete professional and extremely talented in what he does. I was fortunate to have sourced his details online and he did a fantastic job in rebuilding a concrete path to my mother's house. I found him considerate, polite, honest and most of all, very skilful in what he does. I would recommend him to anyone with a concreting project.

Davide and Giuseppe did a fantastic job on the exposed aggregate around my pool. I have had numerous compliments on how great it looks. The guys are rare to find these days, professional, hard working, articulate, considerate of customers needs and just fun to be around. Once they commit to a job they do everything in their power to make sure it ends up exceeding expectations. I am already booking them in for other concreting work for myself, friends and family. Well done guys, you should be extremely proud of what you do!!👍

Thank you to Giuseppe from Duracon Concreting. What a professional and honest tradesman to work with. On time, punctual, professional. Giuseppe demonstrated professionalism at every step. Thank you for a great job completed on time and on budget. Very happy with the outcome, our house looks totally transformed. Will certainly be recommending you to anyone who needs concreting works. Well done and keep up the good, honest work ethic you have.

Duracon was recommended to me by a number of people and now I can also confidently recommend their service as well. I was unsure about the type of concrete I wanted for my entertainment area and Giuessepe talked me through all of my options. I finally made my decision, paid my deposit and the job proceeded in a timely and professional manner. They were friendly fellas and informed me of all the steps along the way. Their attention to detail is amazing, my building inspector was very impressed. Thank you, you fellas rock!!

If you want the best concreting, than look no further. Duracon Concreting have done an amazing job at my place. Giuseppe from Duracon Concreting removed my old driveway and the concrete around the side of my house and replaced it with exposed aggregate concrete. It wasn’t an easy job as I wanted the whole job (which wraps around my house) in one large concrete slab. Giuseppe not only managed to get an amazing finish on the aggregate, but also managed to get all the falls for the water spot on. The water runs away from my house and both garage doors on the garage which sits opposite my house. He was always punctual and put the time and effort in over multiple days to get the perfect aggregate concrete finish. He also charged a reasonable price. I have already recommended him to two different family members who are also in need of concreting. I can’t praise Duracon Concreting enough. I have never left a Google review before, but I found I had to leave a review in Giuseppes case. It can be hard to find good tradies, but you will definitely find a great tradie if you choose to go with Giuseppe. If you’re still unsure of the quality of work, then ask to see my finished driveway. The workmanship speaks for itself. Thank you Giuseppe.

Giuseppe was on time, easy to deal with and very helpful. We had a 10 by 6 carport concreted and the job was done very well. Price was also fair and reasonable.Super happy with the job.

We had a difficult job. Water was running off under the house and causing structural damage. An old concrete ramp and steps had to be removed. Giusseppe from Duracon Concreting took on the job of removing these structures and completing a concrete path topped with brick paving that drains water away from the house and into the garden. The angles were complex and the result was better than we had imagined it could be.We have no hesitation in recommending Duracon Concreting if you are looking for an experienced tradesman who explains the process, provides quality work and reliably keeps you informed of when the work can be done and how long the work will take.

Peter Newsome

12:11 15 Sep 20

Giusppee was responsive - for me this is crucial. He visited immediately following our conversation to discuss works and upon viewing the site he was able to suggest an alternate method for drainage. A testament to why you engage someone with experience and why I will continue work with him.Peter.
