I've just built a garden office type building (it's timber construction though, not brick). I opted for setting it on concrete piers rather than a slab - plenty of airflow underneath it and no need to worry about drainage as the joists are all at least 4 inches of the ground. I did have to remove an existing concrete base - nearly re-used until i gave it a whack with an iron bar and found it was only an inch thick :-/

That would be a good option if we weren't getting bikes in and out all the time. Ok for me, but I think my girlfriend will struggle with too much of a step, so looking to do level access ideally. I guess that makes re-pouring the slab my only option.
