Once again Dex, I think you are correct, I will carry on with the sub-base for the slabs and give that area a wide berth for a while.

Sensible indeed. You've got plenty to get on with anyway and the fencing can be done after any dusty stuff.

Re: Up The Garden Path

Had to go to Whitchurch today so ain't had much time, the step down on the timber from the slab is 50mm, 12mm for the mortar bed and 38mm for the paving slabs, the concrete sub base will be 50-60mm thick.

Zero Dex, we live at the top of a hill.

Re: Up The Garden Path

Line post relocated the new lawn level will cover the concrete, and the sub-base started, just cordoned it off to stop the dog leaving her mark.

Re: Up The Garden Path

Ready to load, tip, mix, pour and level in the morning.

Re: Up The Garden Path

Did you have fun getting that washing line post base out?

Not really, I thought about the possibility of gaining a hernia and having to distance in a Hospital situation.

Re: Up The Garden Path

Bingo, that's four jumbo bags of ballast of ballast and about 20 bags of cement. The shed came this morning, in two manageable box's, so off on a slab matching trip in an hour or so.
