Thanks for looking
Hi Guys wanted to share my experience so far….Im building a new build property with basement, I’ve had quotes as high as 170k for my basement at a waterproof shell stage ready for the other trades, ie brick layers etc.
I’ve had one quote in, using waterproof concrete caltitle, this firm has given me a price for a complete package for a waterproof structure do you guys feel he has overcharged anywhere
Ive since decided to go down the tanking route as it seems the most reliable.
Ive attached rough basement plans & quotation ive had, the shaded in green bit on the plans is the part of the basement that projects under the garden area.
I have since decided to try and sub contract each stage to cut costs rather than contract the whole basement to one firm, ie piling/groundwork's muck away to one company....then formwork concrete pours to another…..tanking water proofing last stage, are these the correct stages? does anyone know of any other ways to bring down the costs, anyone have a rough idea of cost for a new build basement using the tanking system roughly 115sqm up to a shell only with tanking in place...
Thanks for your valuable time
