Removal of concrete slab and path plus putting down a new concrete base


BigED

Recommended Posts

Hello


We need a couple of quotes for some basic demolition and concreting.


The job will involve:


- breaking up and removing a concrete path base (probably 9m x 0.5m)

- breaking up and removing an existing concrete base (for a concrete slab shed we are demolishing ourselves)- approx 2m x 2.5m (depth not known)

- skip hire for disposal of concrete

- laying a new concrete base in a new position, about 3.5m x 3m x 0.1m (10cm) deep


If you have had someone do something similar and were happy with their work, or you know of somebody good who does this sort of thing, please let me know.


I am putting in a separate post for laying an armoured cable to run electrics from the house to the back of the garden. It is a separate job requiring a qualified electrician, but it is part of the same project. If you (or someone you know) can do both then just let me know.


Thanks very much,


BigED

Thanks to all who have replied.


I have a few tradespeople who have put themselves forward. If anyone has had someone in to do similar work then I would be happy to hear their recommendations. Otherwise, I will work my way through the list, especially where I can see other recommendations for the tradespeople on EDF, checkatrade or similar forums.


(For info, the work would probably need to be carried out sometime in July).

    • Hope all the ‘high streets for people’ events went well! Very short notice probably for people living in the area and on a very hot day!  James McAsh just doesn’t know what to do next with Southwark Council Tax payers money. He advocates the few streets in the area that has a bus service and then shuts the routes down! Very annoying for people who want to go about their daily business and have already had restrictions brought in by McAsh. 
    • Thank goodness for Greg. I had an awful situation whereby I was notified that water was leaking from my flat into the flat below me. I was 150 miles away at the time and had a panicked journey home not knowing what I was going to face.   I called Greg (after seeing reviews on the forum) as soon as I arrived home in the evening and he arrived just after 10pm and was able to shut off the problem. He had to come back to finalise the job which turned out to be caused in a communal area whereby there was a blockage in the stack pipe.   Greg worked quickly, efficiently and informed me every step of the way as to what he was doing and why. He also cleaned up really well afterwards.  Greg's charges are very reasonable and he will definitely be my "go-to" if I have any other plumbing issues in the future.
