— Area size. Bigger areas cost more overall but usually attract a lower per-m² rate.

— Coating system. Grind-and-seal is cheapest, spray-on mid-range, epoxy and decorative overlays the dearest.

— Slab condition. Cracks, spalling and stains need repair and extra prep before coating.

— Pattern & colours. Multiple colours, stencils and borders add labour over a single plain finish.

— Site access. Steep driveways and tight access slow the prep and spraying work.

— Resurfacing only works on structurally sound concrete — badly cracked slabs need replacement instead.

— Ask what preparation is included; grinding and crack repair is where cheap quotes cut corners.

— Choose a UV-stable sealer for driveways or the colour can fade within a few years.
