Prepare a concrete base for a timber frame building

  • Location: Woking
  • Hired: Thames Valley Reinforcement Ltd

Job Description

I have an existing concrete base which is not large enough for the building I want to put on it. The surface is solid but is uneven. The size of the building is 10ftx16ft and the existing concrete area is approximately 8ft wide and is already long enough. I require a levelled area large enough to take the whole building allowing for space to walk around it for maintenance purposes.
