Ha ha sorted it on the phab-let.........eventually!
are you lot for real,?
all foundations must be installed on a suitable bearing level, chopping up fencing to go under turf to stop a bodged drainage job i was asked to sort out on the cheap.
This I must hear?

And yes the mesh under the turf worked a treat. It was a request from someone to try and resolve a problem. I gave them the right way to do it......they declined in favour of a near zero cost option.....sometimes you have to be a little inventive, think outside the box and be a little creative. If they hadn,t been ripped off by cowboys first i could have done a proper job. Things arent allways perfect......unless you can offer a better zero cost solution?
And at the end of the day the customer was happy.
no such thing as zero cost so lets get that out the way.
Surface dressing even with mesh is not the durable solution ...... foundations hold the project together, without, your fluffed
But when you inherit jobs with no money you work with what you have.
As for the foundations, there in, its the water that im worried about, i dont know wether its residual or seeping through the foundation layer.
Thats why i asked about the mesh, its jyst an idea....
I wouldnt even be thinking about the project if, as you say, if theres no money involved.
Move to pastures greener, there in, it sounds like a flood plane to me
