May have got my sums wrong .16 ha so 1,600 meters so £2,400 sounds better may give them a ring
It’s a 1/3 of an acre

I thought that was what you'd said when we spoke about it last ---- one too many zeros Mog ..... Guy I know concreted half an acre last year .... cost him £30k IIRC, at 200mm thick with mesh .... sounded a lorrabucks to me

£2,400 sounds pretty bloody reasonable to me, for 1/3rd acre concrete yard

If you do speak to them ask if they can do inside buildings, and find out how smooth a finish they can lay. And whether road planings would amalgamate into their ‘concrete’?

how does it actually work ? They spread a lean dry mix like a screed ?

Yes as long as it's a large shed for tractor to fit in and they power float finish if you want

think it gets rotorvated into the exisiting ground to a depth of about 300mm from what I have seen of other ground stabilisation work before, but they must be putting a fair mix into it to get it to go off like they do ..... if it IS as good as it looks .... it's an awesome way of creating hard standing, as long as you have summat already to work with .... wonder how/if it works with planings

Been done a fair bit round here on tracks, but it doesn't last forerver. A bit done five years ago is breaking up pretty badly in places. This was on chalky/flinty ground.

Its been a minute since update (doesnt time fly)

My solicitors letter to ebay with threats of court got me back my neigh on 4k...... cost me 10% to do so but was worth while and i am also pleased they never bloked me etc. Just gave me a lame email back saying they made a error.

We have been totally stacked out with sales + stock i assume its down to export being so strong pre brexit i.e there may be a border tomo etc it has been a very busy first quarter for us.

The sad news is my resident 1992 komatsu forklift died. It just diddnt start one day. Took me a few days but got her going again ran her up nice but she diddnt want to go again. shes a old 1992 nissan petrol i assume the carb is defunked. I never had time to resolve so bought a used Doosan diesel, made sense as we have a surplus of Red.

Once it was delivered you soon realise how the hell you put up with the old one you never know.... The new one has sideshift which we have used loads already.

The old Komatsu will need a carb i think but hard found so is dumped in the corner for now...

I’ve recently used a firm called Thomas Higgins (all online - google them) to get some money out of a ‘slow’ payer. I’d thoroughly recommend them - great value (cost me nothing and actually got me 10%ish more than owed in the end).
