A slab that size is not difficult to do yourself (with a part time helper).
Just build the forms, make sure they're square and level, and have some
concrete delivered. Use a board to work out any air bubbles during the
pour, then use a long board and your helper to screed off the concrete
level with the forms.


On a 10 x 12 slab you will also want to factor in wire mesh/rebar (#3 on
16" centers would be my preference for a slab that size) if you want it
to last ...
