binka Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 and its coming Monday or Tuesday next week! I was expecting to have to wait a few weeks so am very happy. Gone for a one. One thing I'm contemplating doing before it comes is slabbing the run as its a slippy, muddy mess. How level would i need to get the ground in order to slab it? Do I have to go as far as getting a spirit level out, etc or can I just dig the mud over a bit and rake it flattish and stick some slabs on the top.

Plum Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Well done. Having put mine on slabs without worrying about levels and its higgledy piggledy I would take a bit more care another time. It doesn't have to be spirit level even but try and get a slight slope so run off rainwater from the cover and around it doesn't run into the run. Yes guessed it. I didn't. It also means if you wash the slabs in the run, it will drain away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ain't Nobody Here Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Congratulations, Binka . How , a . I'm about to lay slabs for a walk in run (although I'm planning to leave a soil square in the middle) so am interested in the "how level do they have to be" question too! I've got a joiner coming at 1pm (so now!) so I'll ask his opinion . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
