Challenge
The new log cabin was to be constructed on the site of where an existing tree had been cut down and the homeowner was keen to source a solution whereby he didn’t have the expense, time and upheaval that would be involved in excavating the tree roots then pouring a concrete slab.
Solution
No More Digging completed a pre-installation ground survey and provided a suitable layout to suit the sub-frame design being installed by Create Outside Space. A grid formation for 42 x 800mm foundations screws was set out and installed to create robust, level foundations ready for the build to go ahead the following day. This ticked every box in the client and homeowners wish list. The tree root challenge had been overcome, with no disruption to the garden and in the most cost-effective way. All in one day!
Really impressed with the ground screw system, extremely quick to install and 100% level. Even the challenge of big ground roots wasn’t a problem and most importantly a happy customer.
So, it’s a no-brainer for me to build a garden room using ground screw foundations instead of concrete. My advice to my clients in the future will be No More Digging.
