So the floor is in: 500cm x 595cm = roughly 30sqm 6 inch thick 6 cubic metres of 30N concrete with Fibres reinforced mesh DPM down. next steps, as ive built a floating slab. i am considering a stud wall construction for the walls. not sure how to do this weather timber or metal...

Ok Floor in!!! used MCP birmingham, 6 cubic metres in the end with fibres £585 Big thanks to my mate Patrick for laying the concrete while i was at work, he used a bull float!

Moderators? Admin? can we have a for sale section? swaps etc wanted

Tampered finish to be honest. as im not sure where to get the bull float from etc. most likely will get the concrete supplied and barrowed from MCP in birmingham, pentos drive. they said £450 with fibres for 25-30Nm, 4.5Cubic metres Shuttering in, DPM down, Wire mesh in! Just need to...

The point im making is to have a classifieds section on here. ive tried ebay, gumtree etc.

yeah i saw that but like i mentioned not interested in New. ive got a few drills, body only which i want to get rid of. but not nsure where to post., and also might have some materials left over.

Hi not sure if im looking in the wrong place, but i cant seem to see if this forum has a for sale sectino. im looking for a cordless drill and impact driver, not sure if anyone on here would have one for sale? also looking for other tools.

a bit off topic guys. but does anyone else have any recommendations in the west midlands area for the supply of concrete! calculated i will need 4.5m cubed.

its funny you've posted as my neighbour said why dont ijust build it in wood with marine ply walls and plastic cladd the exterior. would be faster and cheaper!

Thanks, No not removed the one on the left, leaving that, just going to trim it down.

Its all down to cost mate, with extortionate cowboy builders charging 7k+ i would rather do it this way and its quicker. im the 2nd house up the road, i have a rear side access which cars can go up but wont be able to go around the corner, so they would only be 6 metres away, hence free...

Hi i'm constructing an outbuilding garage at the back of my garden. its going to be about 6m x 5m = 30sqm i've had the digger guy cut out the area to around 6- 8 inches deep. Will be doing a large concrete slab with reinforced wire sheets. Can someone recommend what shuttering size i...

Do you mean the floor Support beams?? or the ones holding the roof up> ie perlings? best thing is to get some pics up and explain what you want removed or try to do. also if your converting it to an office or liveable space you need to check planning permission. etc.
