Hi
Hopefully someone can give me some advice regarding the 10 x 12 shed that I am about to buy for the bottom of my garden. Could someone let me know if I should have a concrete base for it to sit on or have paving slabs put down. The benefit of having the paving slabs is that I could pave beyond the shed and so have a nice area at the bottom around it whereas if I have a concrete base built the same size as the shed I will still need to at some time pave the area around it. I have been quoted Â£500.00 for a 10 x 12 concrete base. Does that sound reasonable?

Thanks

Yes, it is.

As for slabs v concrete it's your choice. Both will do the job.

Thanks Sean, but wouldn't that look really ugly.
Part of the reason I like flags is that it would be more pleasing on the eye.

Thanks
