Well this is a bit annoying

Post by smithcorp »

My 3,000 litre rainwater tank fell over. Plumber who reinstalled it didn't do it right it seems...

Looks like it was just placed on the ground with minimal work put into the base...

It had a concrete base - prefab slabs. I think over time they must have settled a bit and the plumber out it back on a tilting base.

Slabs on a flattened sand/gravel base?

Prepab needs compact ground to sit in. Normally you'd go for what called road base and compact the life out of it with a wacker. But even better is to box it and pour a slab. A couple of inches thick and there's no problem.

Yep, I reckon the concrete slabs just got laid down on the soil as-is. Its getting a proper poured slab this time.
