Concrete Parking Stoppers

Enhance the safety and organisation of your car park with our professionally installed concrete parking stoppers. Also known as parking curbs, car stops, bumper blocks, or traffic stops, these precast concrete barriers provide a visual and physical deterrent to prevent vehicles from overparking.


Once your new concrete car park has been poured and levelled, our team will strategically position the parking bumpers for optimal safety and traffic flow.

Car Park Cost Guide: Dunedin

In Dunedin, most concrete car park projects fall within an indicative range of $90 to $200 per square metre. Treat this as guidance only. Final figures are set by independent contractors after a site visit, a measured scope, and confirmation of access and ground conditions. If you’re researching concrete car park cost in Dunedin, note that larger footprints or multi‑stage pours may qualify for volume‑based rates or bulk discounts at the contractor’s discretion. We construct ground‑level concrete car parks only.


Totals are shaped by subgrade improvement and basecourse depth, access for trucks and pumps, slab thickness and reinforcement relative to expected traffic loads, panel sizes and jointing, gradients and drainage, and the overall layout. Add‑ons such as kerbs and channels, sumps, wheel stops, bollards, line marking, signage posts, and any removals or reinstatement will influence the final price. Residential carports and small complexes tend to be on the lower end; high-use commercial lots with heavier loads and more components tend to be higher.


Local ground and weather conditions play a significant role in preparation. Soft or saturated areas may require undercutting and additional basecourse to achieve a firm platform. Car parks require reliable fall to sumps or swales to prevent ponding, which adds time to setting out and boxing. Constrained access, inner-city sites, or live business environments may require staged works, traffic management, or the use of a concrete pump. Wind, rain, and cool conditions can affect the finishing of windows and the protection of the curing process.


Material and finish choices are matched to use and budget. A practical broom or light texture is common for grip; trowel finishes with grit additives can be specified where appropriate. Decorative options such as coloured mixes or exposed aggregate may be used for feature lanes or pedestrian areas. Joint layout is planned to control cracking and suit the parking grid. Curing compounds or coverings help early strength gain. Sealing is an optional extra that can enhance cleanability and reduce the likelihood of stains from oils and tyre marks.


To compare quotes fairly, ensure each proposal covers the same scope. Check:


  • GST status (inclusive or exclusive)
  • Slab thickness and reinforcement relative to expected vehicle loads
  • Base preparation depth and basecourse specification
  • Joint layout, falls, drainage components, kerbs/channels, and any sumps
  • Inclusions and exclusions (demolition, spoil, reinstatement, wheel stops, bollards, line marking, signage posts, EV charger bases and plinths, foundations only; no supply or installation of charging units)
  • Programme, traffic management, staging or night pour allowances, and access arrangements
  • Any volume‑based pricing assumptions for larger areas


Typical timeframes vary by scale. Smaller residential carports or compact lots often involve 1 to 2 days of excavation and trimming, followed by a pour and finish day, with saw cuts soon after (weather permitting). Larger commercial car parks are commonly staged over multiple days for preparation and multiple pour days, with line marking scheduled after initial cure. Light foot traffic is usually acceptable after 24 to 48 hours. Reopen to light vehicles around 5 to 7 days, with heavier use set by the contractor based on conditions and finish.

Dunedin City Council Standards for Concrete Car Park Construction

Dunedin City Council Standards for Concrete Car Park Construction

At Dunners Concrete Contractor Services, we don't just build car parks; we build confidence. We've got a deep understanding of Dunedin City Council (DCC) regulations and a commitment to precision that ensures every project meets the highest standards of safety, durability, and compliance.

Dunners Concrete Contractor Services Logo - Dunedin City Council Compliant Car Parks Section.

Unmatched Knowledge of DCC Regulations

We've mastered the ins and outs of DCC's parking and construction guidelines, ensuring your project avoids costly delays or non-compliance issues. Here are some key regulations we consider:

A car is driving past parked vehicles on the newly constructed parking facility foundation in Dunedin.
  • Permit Expertise: We handle all construction zone permits, submitting applications 30+ days in advance and ensuring yellow-painted boxes, regulatory signage, and safety protocols are in place.


  • Driveway Compliance: All vehicle crossings are constructed by DCC-approved contractors, with precise setbacks (no parking within 1m of driveways) and resource consent coordination if required.


  • Parking Layout Precision: Spaces adhere to DCC’s 2.5 to 3.5m width standards, with gradients of ≤10% (or engineered designs for slopes exceeding 16%) to meet safety and accessibility requirements.

Durability Built for Dunedin's Climate

Dunedin's coastal location means outdoor surfaces have to be tough. That's why we build our vehicle access areas to last, using durable materials that can handle whatever Mother Nature throws their way.

A durable new cement parking lot in Andersons Bay was built to withstand Dunedin’s climate.
  • Heavy-Duty Surfaces: We use commercial-grade concrete mixes that resist moisture and chloride damage, making them ideal for coastal or high-traffic areas.


  • Drainage Expertise: To prevent pooling and stormwater issues, slopes and channels are engineered to DCC’s 1:20 gradient rule, ensuring efficient water runoff.


  • Reinforced Designs: For slopes steeper than 16%, we utilise steel-reinforced concrete to meet DCC’s safety protocols and provide additional structural support.

Why Choose Dunners Concrete for Your Dunedin Car Park?

We've built numerous compliant parking spaces across Dunedin because we treat every project as if it were our own. From navigating permits to perfecting gradients, our team ensures your investment stands the test of time.

  • What’s the typical timeline to build a concrete car park in Dunedin?

    Recently poured concrete carport in Dunedin, demonstrating typical installation timelines.

    Timeframes vary depending on the scale and site conditions. A compact ground-level carport slab is often completed in a few working days, from preparation to pour. A small residential car park usually takes around three to five working days. Larger ground‑level commercial areas are commonly staged over one to two weeks, with preparation days, multiple pour days, saw cuts soon after, and line marking scheduled once the initial cure is achieved.


    Duration is influenced by footprint and layout, access for trucks/pumps, any subgrade upgrades or drainage components, and Dunedin’s weather. We’ll confirm a clear programme at the consultation and keep you updated throughout the build.
