CONCRETE FOR GARAGE FORECOURT
Choosing the right stuff
Preparation Options
Most forecourts are installed as ‘hit and miss’ bays, with this allowing access for detailed finishing. Bays are usually separated by permanent plastic formwork, with steel mesh reinforcement cut to size within the bays. Details and kerbs are usually isolated with a thin permanent separation strip, approximately 10mm wide.
Mesh & Reinforcement
The metal mesh into which we pour the concrete to increase the slab strength.
Shuttering
The frame around the pour area to keep the concrete in place whilst it dries.
Types of Lay
Garage forecourts are usually handled, using permanent formwork as a screed rail to lay from. Care is taken to ensure falls and levels are followed to eliminate ponding. forecourts are usually laid to an SR3 level of tolerance. See our page on floor tolerances for more info.

Finishing Considerations
With every Garage Forecourt Concrete project, we recommend a brush finish with trowelled margins. Not only is this attractive but also slip resistant. Joints are sealed with an oil resistant sealant.
Brush Finish
A rough, high grip finish usually used in Car Parks, Outdoor Yards & Garage Forecourts.
Brush Finish
This is the best finish for maximum slip resistance and water drainage
