I'm preparing a new patio. How deep will I need to go to ensure a solid base? Will six-feet be sufficient?
I really expected this to be an "I bought a new bike so how do I tell the wife?" thread
At six feet it may as well be.
6 foot .... Most folks houses are built on shallower foundations....
Was thinking six-feet woukd be enough to [s]prevent odours[/s] prevent subsidence.
6 feet?? Are you building a tower block? 100mm of MOT1 should be plenty if whackered down properly.
Valentines Day not all that you'd hoped then, OP?
No, it was fine. Family went out for Sunday lunch whilst I was out - the swines! 😉
Ah, think I missed a joke. As you were.
6ft is recommended to reduce likelihood of repurcussions, bear in mind organic matter will shrink as it rots
