Sub-base

[helpme]

hello and thanks for the add,

Im just wondering if there is anything on the market other than mot type1 i could use as a sub-base for paving. I need to bulk up around 6 to 8 inches in some places, i need around 15-20 tonne of aggregate and with no access to the back garden for plant im finding it a pain to move, is there anything more managable but will do the same job..

Thanks

Pumped concreted, but expensive and one for the pros

If you have a gate that is around 750mm wide you could use a power barrow. It's basically the smallest dumper on the market and will probably cost no more than £150 a week all in.

sometimes its the only way, if enough of you its goes quick enough

we have done it knocking up 6m of concrete by mixer and then walking it through on a courtyard type house

no room for a pump and not wide enough for a wheelbarrow

no one liked it and we all sweated buckets but the jobs the job

we got paid and the job got built
