1 Stubborn Rock & More Delays

During this week we found that we can get our shed slab poured on 300mm of fill. So we organised to get our tank excavated, by Ben Barker of Barkers Excavation, and to move the excavated earth onto the slab site. When I went down on site, the surveyors had pegging out our house which I marked out with marking paint.












We then realised that the shed & house would fit but there would be no physical way to drive a car in or out of our shed if we had to move the shed because of the rock in the way. Ben gave John a call who has a larger dozzer the Leon, 26 Tonnes vs 18 Tonnes. John had a look at the site and is confident that he can remove all of the rock that is in the way of our shed, he will have a go at this job around Wednesday 7th April. Hopefully we will have some good news by the end of next week. Ben is going to still excavate our tank site for Bega Concrete Tanks to install the week after Easter, at least we will have something underway. All progress on our house & shed slab is on hold until John gets on site and has a go at this stubborn rock!!!

With all the above said, when we see views like this it makes it easier to push on!!!
