bigbird Posted September 3, 2021 Report Share Posted September 3, 2021 Finally hubby has made all the different sections, they’ve been galved and now just the little job of putting them together 🙈😂 We’re going to have to pack the bottom at the lower end of the slab as it’s lower than the top which we knew but we’re hoping to move soon and take the kennels with us so a) there was no point building them to suit the slab and b) spend the time and money building up the slab 😂🙄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalkedUp Posted September 3, 2021 Report Share Posted September 3, 2021 Excellent. We have designed a commercial kennel once, surprisingly quite a lot to it in terms of specification. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was surprised just how much thought had to go into them, definitely not as easy as it looks 🙈 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbird Posted September 8, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2021 Current situation- we really wish we had sorted the concrete pad out and the doors are a touch wonky but great for a prototype! @Lloyd90these are the panels we’re using, think you were asking previously 🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just jet wash it and all clean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbird Posted October 8, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2021 (edited) Finished!! Dog cabins just been delivered!! At last!! Albeit first prototypes for hubby and his mate who have worked really hard on the kennels but perfect for our lot!

WalkedUp Posted October 8, 2021 Report Share Posted October 8, 2021 Looking good, did you sort a fall onto the slab or was one naturally built in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbird Posted October 8, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2021 (edited) Hmmm it was built in unintentionally from the top kennel to the bottom one, at least they’re all out having their constitutionals whilst we’re hosing them out! That said there is a fall from the front to the back of the kennel and a trench behind it Edited October 8, 2021 by bigbird Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harkom Posted October 27, 2021 Report Share Posted October 27, 2021 A slight fall/slope on the concrete base aids water run off during the wash down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
