Choosing the foundation that your house is built on, may have major ramifications for the structural integrity of your home. A slab foundation is normally placed after the area is cleared of earthworks (e.g. plants, weeds, shrubs) and the plumbing pre-lay is completed. Once these steps are completed we can then pour your footings and floor slab. The slab foundation is made up of concrete and typically 150mm thick in the centre. The footings and slab involve using a concrete pump to direct the concrete into position. This process ensures the waterproof membrane and reinforcement isn’t damaged.

“Anton and his team did an amazing job concreting our very old garage in a commercial premise. Their prep work was amazing, thorough and efficient and the end result, superb. He took care to be as unobtrusive to business as possible and went the extra mile with finishing off details. Great business. Highly recommend.”
