Hi

Looking for your thoughts on this quote please

We need a concrete base for a shed, the shed is 8' x 10' and have been quoted £380

Is this about right?

Thank you

    Bargain!! I paid £1062 for a 6ft by 11ft concrete base.

    A lot depends how flat the site is, mine was on a slope so involved extra digging and shuttering.

    How thick is the base? Are they removing all the top soil and compacting the formation layer? I did a 16x10 100mm thick and my material cost was about £350 so that's a good price if they are doing a proper job
    Some people don't exaggerate........... They just remember big!
