A little while ago we decided to put up a shed for the cruiser and all the other things you need a shed for. Concrete slab size is 16 x 9 metres, plus a 9 x 3 slab out one end, we paid a couple of local blokes who are experianced with concrete. Total cost of concrete slab layed was just about spot on $10000 this includes their labour @ $30 an hour.
The local building company gave us a quote in writing with them using our reo mesh for just the 16 x 9 slab. The quote is for the slab only. $65700 yes $65700. One of the down sides of living in the mining boom areas of WA a lot of businesses think everybody is BHP or Rio Tinto.
