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

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).

    • Yup. At best I have people who detest Trump shrugging and saying something like “what ya gonna do?” Like that is any kind of answer what we gonna do is condemn, and watch out for same happening here - and watch out for all the handmaidens who would allow this to happen.  Apologists for Farage, Jenrick etc 
    • There are plenty of Jewish people on these marches, who have every right to stand up and say not in our name. A Jewish bloc attends every single one: https://jfjfp.com/voices/jjp-at-the-gaza-demonstrations/ Jewish peoples lives are being made less safe by this war, as we recently saw in Manchester and in the clear increase in antisemitism. They want to see Peace, and this will only happen with justice for the Palestinians. Most have - within living memory - members of their families who have been murdered by an authoritarian regime. They know what they are seeing and why they are marching. Calling going on march 'indulging in Jew hatred' is just ridiculous. You've clearly never been on one. Engage your critical faculties and think about why these marches are being smeared, rather than spouting what the right wing press and home secretary tell you.
    • Thank you for posting that. Chilling.
    • It amazes me how little outrage there actually is. The US is very clearly, and very quickly falling into autocracy. And as noted above, there are an alarming number in the UK who appear to support the direction the US is taking.
