Sub base under existing patio…

[Fozzy]

Let me know what you think about me digging more out or not…

 

I’m replacing the slabs at the back of my house with porcelain and trying to figure out if digging any more out is overkill.

 

I’m down to 100-120mm below finished height so that would give 50-70mm of mot.

 

The old slabs had been down for 25 years and the ground is full of old bits of brick, stone and chunks of tarmac and you would expect very solid.

 

My skip is almost full, I have to take everything through my house, and less MOT that has to be wheelbarrowed from 30 metres down the road the better… so you can imagine my reluctance to dig anymore out.

 

Do we think I need to dig any more out or do we think this will be ok?

What you have done looks fine.  I give you my consent to stop digging.
