Hi All,
We have just bought a house which has a 3x3m shed that is on a concrete base.
I want to knock this down and put on a 5x4m log cabin workshop. I was told that I can expand the pre existing base to cover the new required size. Is this something that is pretty simple to do? I am aware that I will need a level of hardcore, (I will be smashing up an older shed base and bricked bit to make way for my new base, so will have lots of rubble!!) And then lay concrete on top.. Anything else I should look out for??
When it comes to digging up the old base and bricks, should I hire a jack hammer or will and sds with chisel be enough? It is only about 2 x 2 meters..
Any help would be greatly appreciated....
Thanks in advance...
Nick
