Our Concrete Base Services

We offer a comprehensive range of concrete base services, tailored to your specific requirements:

1. Site Assessment and Preparation

Before any work begins, we conduct a thorough site assessment to evaluate ground conditions, access, and potential challenges. This allows us to create a detailed plan and identify any necessary preparations, such as clearing vegetation, removing topsoil, or dealing with existing structures.

2. Accurate Measurements and Layout

Precise measurements and layout are essential for ensuring the correct size and positioning of your concrete base. We use professional tools and techniques to accurately mark out the area, ensuring that the base aligns perfectly with your project plans.

3. Excavation and Sub-Base Construction

We excavate the area to the required depth, considering factors like the intended load and local building regulations. A free-draining hardcore sub-base is then laid and compacted to provide a stable and level foundation for the concrete slab. This sub-base is crucial for preventing settling and ensuring proper drainage.

4. Formwork Construction and Reinforcement

We construct sturdy formwork using high-quality materials to contain the wet concrete and ensure the base has the correct shape and dimensions. We then install appropriate reinforcement, such as rebar or wire mesh, to significantly increase the strength and durability of the concrete slab. The type and placement of reinforcement are determined based on the intended load and use of the base.

5. Concrete Mixing and Pouring

We use appropriate concrete mix ratios, carefully selected for the specific requirements of your project. We accurately calculate the required amount of concrete to avoid shortages or excess material. Our experienced team employs professional pouring and leveling techniques to ensure a smooth, even, and structurally sound slab.

6. Screeding and Finishing

Once the concrete is poured, we use specialise d tools and techniques to screed the surface, removing any excess concrete and creating a level finish. We then apply the appropriate finishing techniques, such as brushing or floating, to achieve the desired surface texture.

7. Drainage Considerations

Proper drainage is essential to prevent water from pooling on the concrete base and causing damage over time. We install the slab with a slight fall to encourage water runoff and carefully consider the direction of the runoff to ensure effective water dispersal.

Wide Range of Applications

We can create concrete bases for a variety of applications, including:

• Sheds and outbuildings
• Patios and driveways
• Extensions and new builds
• Hot tubs and spas
