What Is a Concrete Slab?

A concrete slab is a flat, horizontal surface made of cast concrete, used as a foundational base for various structures. Whether it's the base of a building, house, garage, patio, driveway, extension, conservatory, garden room, or garden shed, concrete slabs provide a sturdy and level foundation. Depending on the build, slabs may be reinforced with steel mesh or rebar to improve load-bearing capacity and prevent cracking over time.

The appeal of reinforced concrete slabs is that they offer extra strength, making them ideal for structures like commercial buildings, large homes, or areas requiring extra durability. Concrete slabs play a key role in construction, providing stable ground support for both residential and industrial structures.

Concrete Slab FAQs

The cost of a concrete slab depends on factors such as size, thickness, and the type of slab you need. On average, domestic concrete slab installations in the UK cost between £70 and £150 per square metre, but this can vary. Make sure to contact us for a free, no-obligation quote.

For most domestic projects, a concrete slab should be at least 100mm thick. However, for reinforced slabs or areas that will carry heavy loads (such as garages or commercial buildings), the thickness may need to be increased. Our team will advise you on the correct thickness for your project.

In most cases, you won’t need planning permission for a concrete slab, especially if it’s for a shed, garden room, or domestic extension. However, if your project involves larger structures or falls within certain regulations, it’s worth checking with your local council. We can guide you through this process.

Light foot traffic is usually possible after 24–48 hours, but full curing takes up to 28 days depending on thickness and weather conditions. We’ll advise you on how long to wait before using your slab, depending on its purpose.

Yes, we can lay concrete slabs for garages, sheds, and garden rooms. Our reinforced slabs are perfect for these smaller structures, providing a durable and solid base to support the weight of the building and any equipment or vehicles inside.
