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).

    • It's interesting how local businesses and the people that own / work in them are not considered part of the "community". The dictionary says "a group of people living in the same place" as the principal definition. Why are we forced to accept a secondary definition where those who don't live in social housing, the vast majority of people in East Dulwich, are told to shut up?
    • They often grow in the angle between wall and pavement which could cause damage to the foundation of the wall and leave the council open to being sued.
    • If weeds are allowed to grow for too long they lift pavements and create obvious tripping hazards. Obviously removing them from your wall and/or garden is unacceptable. 
    • This is NEXT WEDNESDAY 11 June! Just turn up if you prefer not to give prior notice! The Palmerston from  7pm, turn left as you come in! (If you have been hiding under a rock, The Palmerston is the pub on Lordship Lane on the corner of North Cross Road).
