Hi all,

Just a question im just about to start our extension out the back which is weatherboard on bearers and joists. Im doing it as an owner builder and getting the old man to help me, we are going to put in all the concrete stumps ourselves,but the old man is freaking out that they will sink. I have been told that if you have the right concrete slurry you can just push the stumps in the hole then wiggle them around to get your desired height, and they should just stay there. Just wondering if anyone has any better ideas so that i can calm the old man down, i realise that if there out a couple a mm i can always pack under the bearer but would prefer to get them all the same level if i can. Your thoughts would be appreciated.

Cheers Matto
