Planning permission has been granted for my 42m2 detached garage and I want to do the project myself.
The footings are 2.4m x .500m and the ground is heavy clay.
Can anyone advise me of what size digger I will need as I know a mini digger is too small. Also, can you think of pitfalls I should be aware of apart from the usual services and tree roots.
I dug a 6ft deep test hole close to the site to see what the ground was like as far as the mini-digger would go. Lovely clay.
I will employ a skilled digger driver.
Would the concrete be best delivered ready mixed or have one of those lorries that mix on site?
