How to Build a Shed or Workshop Part Two – Concrete Slab Extension
SUBSCRIBE: bit.ly/2vgeB1M
Apologies for not doing the design video as I said I would next but I had to get the concrete done before the old shed went, which it now has but that's is a story for a whole other video!
Remember – I have never concreted before in my life and I have no building experience, the whole workshop build is a DIY affair by me and it will be interesting to see how much it costs in the end as I'm not compromising on what I want but I am saving money where I can, with using things like second hand UPVC windows and bricks offered for free etc.... so if I can, you can too! Experienced concreteers...leave us a comment on your top concreting tips!
I was fortunate to be able to use a concrete mixer for free but you could mix it in a wheel barrow or container, just make sure its really well mixed for strong consistent concrete.
Last but by no means least, a big hello to my subscriber community, I appreciate each and every one of you. If this is the first of my videos you've watched, welcome and have a look around and if you like what you see then join us :)
