Make concrete floors a thing of the past with Hawklok
If you're thinking of making your own garden office, take a look at Taylors Garden Buildings' blog where they discuss Hawklok, a new product which cuts out the need for mixing and making a concrete base and instead uses a system of tiles made from 100 percent recycled and recyclable long life polypropylene plastic. They're lightweight, solid, free draining and selfventilating. As Taylors say: "There is no excuse for uneven or unprotected, rotting shed floors as anyone can now lay a base for any outdoor building." From £75 for a 6ft x 4ft garden office/shed.

These things look great. I've been trying to find contact details for the manufacturer as I'm thinking of importing them.
ReplyDeleteI didn't find anything via Google so I was just wondering if you could help me out.

Please ignore my last comment. I finally tracked them down.
ReplyDeleteThanks anyway.
Great blog.
Cheers
David
I'll be in touch.
ReplyDeleteDavid, I'm not having much luck with this one. The Hawklok idea seems to have come from two landscape gardeners in Worcestershire, Richard Neary and Michael Roscoe, but I can't find contact details for them. I'll keep trying though.
ReplyDeleteHawklok is as you say a brilliant product with more scope than just garden building - hot tubs - marquee floors - greenhouse base.

Richard.
I have used EcoBase for my shed base, it too is a great product.
ReplyDeleteHawkwok is quite good to use as I have been using it for years. The finished product looks amazing.
ReplyDeleteI have yet to try the product, but I am willing to try it as an alternative to concrete flooring. The price is quite lower too.
