Default Re: Concrete Questions

No walls to support, so no footers. As far as hiring out the work, that would put me over the top on budget.

I will have help. My B-I-L. He finished the floor of his Butler building and it is three times the size of this shed.

I actually have a bunch of surplus 10mil vapor barrier in rolls in the crawl space of my cabin, so that's one less expense.

Form boards, no problem. I can get all that laid out.

But, rebar and guage wire..... don't know nothin' 'bout no rebar.....so if that is a necessity I'll either have to hire it out or skip it. I'll talk to my B-I-L. He always pushes me to do this stuff myself (with his help which he is very generous with.) He pushed me to do the plumbing and electircal in my cabin, which I did, and I'm glad. But the one (and only) thing I did hire out on that was the foundation work.

So we'll see.
