Customer has had a shed base laid (not by me, I turned the job down)
which has turned into a bit of a disaster. Its off level by about
an 1" in both directions and the surface looks like a roller coaster
for mice. They want a metal shed erected on top, but there is no way
thats
going to work until the base is sorted.

Initial thoughts are to erect level formwork & top the base with a
little more concrete.

Is it going to bond OK to the exciting base, especially where it
'feathers'.? Would PVA help?

Using some stuff already suggested - one course of bricks all round
using variable depth mortar bed to bring the bricks level.
Screed inside the bricks up level with the top.
Put the shed on the bricks.

Interested as to why you turned the job down - were they not prepared
to pay the price of a decent job?

Simply because humping & mixing large amounts of concrete is bloody hard
work. I can earn more doing simple jobs - like changing light bulbs,
putting up borders, siliconing around baths etc.


Seriously .. the residents of the Medway town's can' change a light bulb ;?,

theres gotta be a joke in there somewhere;!...
