Boston runs the business and runs the jobs, so the person who quotes your work is the person standing on it when the truck arrives. That is why the reviews keep using the same words: responsive, clear, fair, tidy.
- You deal with BostonNo call centre and no being passed around. He answers his own phone and quotes his own work.
- We say what will not workIf the falls are wrong, the access will not take a truck or the finish you want will be slippery in frost, you hear it before you pay for it.
- Concrete and landscaping togetherThe driveway, the retaining and the finished ground levels all have to agree. One crew doing all of it is how they end up agreeing.
- We clean up behind usSite swept, offcuts gone, and you are told exactly when you can walk on it and drive on it.

What Queenstown customers say
Every review below is a real five star review from theGoogle Business Profile, word for word.
Newton Concrete & Landscaping replaced our very old and shabby concrete front yard and installed a French drain on the side of the house to help with a drainage issue related to the neighbour's runoff. Boston was very easy to work with, very responsive, listens well and offers suggestions. He delivered all the features for the concrete front yard that were asked for, with a beautiful smooth yet safe to walk on finish. People walking by admired the high standard finish and touches. The work certainly adds a lot of curb appeal. Highly recommending their service.Rach VFront yard and French drain
Hi, I have known Boston for a very long time. I have found his work ethics to be spot on. He has done a retaining wall for me and a footpath at my place. It still looks good today two years later, no cracks, no slips, money well spent. Thank you Newton Concrete Landscaping.
Henare TiaRetaining wall and footpathHighly recommended. Quick response when requesting a quote. When the quote was accepted there was a fast response with a plan outlined for the job of a carport floor and two bays under a pole house. Excellent communication as a couple of minor issues arose. Job completed to a high standard. No trouble referring Newton Concrete.
Mitchell PeckhamCarport floor and pole house baysWe are very happy with the care and attention that Boston gave us to remediate a job that we had done by another contractor. Boston worked with us to come up with a solution that was delivered in a timely manner and within our budget. Thank you Boston.
Heather TannerRemedial work after another contractorIn reference to the recently completed concrete driveway and footpath installation project, I would like to express my utmost satisfaction with the services provided by your esteemed company. The professionalism, efficiency, and reliability demonstrated by your team were truly exceptional. The project was completed within the agreed upon budget, and the results exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend your company to anyone seeking similar services and would gladly use your expertise again in the future. Thank you for your outstanding work.

Do you do free quotes?
Yes. For anything beyond a very small job we come out, look at the access, the levels and the ground, and quote from that. A quote given over the phone without seeing the site is a guess, and guesses are what turn into variations later.
Can you just place and finish concrete if I have the boxing ready?
Yes, that is a service on its own. Plenty of builders and owner builders book us for the placing and finishing only. See the concrete placing page for what that covers.
How long before I can drive on a new driveway?
As a general rule, stay off it on foot for a couple of days and keep vehicles off for about a week, longer in cold weather. We will give you the exact timing for your pour, because the mix, the thickness and the temperature on the day all change it.
What finishes can I choose from?
Broom, smooth or power floated, exposed aggregate, and cut patterns. Each one behaves differently underfoot in frost and weathers differently, so we will talk through which suits the area and how you use it. We are happy to show you finished examples.
Do you work for builders as well as homeowners?
Both. Homeowners are most of our work, but we regularly do foundation, slab and placing work for builders on new builds, and we are used to fitting in with a programme.
Which areas do you cover?
Queenstown and the wider Wakatipu, including Frankton, Arrowtown, Jack's Point, Hanley's Farm and Lake Hayes. If you are a bit further out, call and ask.
Can you fix or replace existing concrete?
Yes. We saw cut out the damaged or unwanted sections, take the old concrete away and pour the replacement so it finishes flush with what is staying.
