Frequently Asked Questions

  • Why is proper pad preparation important?

    A well-prepared pad provides a solid, even base for your structure, helping to prevent issues like cracking, shifting or drainage problems. It also ensures your builder or concreter can work efficiently and to code. Skipping this step or doing it incorrectly can lead to costly repairs later.

  • How long does it take to prepare a house or shed pad?

    Timeframes vary depending on the size of the pad, site conditions, access and weather. A small shed pad may be completed in a day, while a larger house pad could take several days. Site access and the need for additional work like cut and fill can also affect timing.

  • Can you prepare a pad on a sloped block?

    Yes, but it may require extra earthworks such as cutting into the slope and building retaining structures or using a cut and fill method. Preparing a pad on a slope takes more planning and equipment, but it can be done safely and effectively with the right approach.
