Decided to dig a hole in the garage

Seeing as this section has become quiet now that everyone has a power washer I thought Id get the DIY on the go again.

Getting fed up crawling round under cars so decided that a pit was required. (no height for a ramp)

Started with this,

Aided by the use of a Stilth Saw to give a nice edge

Then the fun begins

To leave me with this after 2 days and the removal of 27 tons

On with the tanking, building and back filling along with the top steel work

Tied back into original garage floor

Then onto the internal floor. Painted with bitumen primer, burned on some felt, painted with rubber coating then poured in concrete

Fitted some electrics and built some steps......Job done!
