Up to our knees in it!

Adjustments are made to the cold water main repositioning the stop tap to the new kitchen sink position.
Concrete poured in, using shoot from front door. The mix is a special fine mix , easy flowing ‘Agilia’ from Lafarge, which has been used by EMHA on other refurbishments of a similar type.
Very little tamping required and it is almost self levelling.
The surface is sprayed with a barrier help curing, it will good to walk on the next day.
The new cold water main floated in the concrete and had to be held down with bricks, which can be removed once concrete has set.
Advised by concrete supplier that at least 7 days are required before concrete is covered over with insulation.
