Groundwork Service for Solid Foundation

Sheds.co.uk
£1499.00

Making a wise decision is in the cards when you order your latest Log Cabin or Garden Structure from Sheds.co.uk. A crucial step in the setup process is ensuring a sturdy foundation for your new structure, guaranteeing many years of enjoyment. At Sheds.co.uk, we provide a “convenient” groundwork service. This service removes the hassle of self-preparation. Expect a comprehensive consultation call before your installation to brief you on the operation. During the call, we’ll address various concerns such as property access, types of slabs or concrete, layout, schedule, and any queries you may have. You can opt for either a slab or concrete base for your new structure.

**Slab Foundation:**
Our package includes:
– Introductory consultation and assessment call before installation.
– Turf removal and basic site preparation.
– Standard slab styles included (Other options available at an additional expense).
Both services typically conclude within a day, weather permitting.

**Important Note:** We are unable to handle excess soil or turf disposal. The cost covers both labor and materials and assumes the site for your garden structure is relatively flat. You will always receive a consultation call before the groundwork begins. If for any reason we cannot proceed with the installation, you will receive a full refund. Adequate access to the construction site is imperative, including room for machinery or wheelbarrows.
Our groundwork service is exclusively available to customers in Mainland UK. Contact us for further details.

FAQs

The size of the shed depends on what you plan to store or use it for. Measure the items you plan to store and consider any additional space for moving around or future storage needs. Common sizes range from small (6×8 feet) for basic storage to large (12×24 feet) for workshops or extensive storage.
Sheds are typically made from wood, metal, or plastic. Wood is aesthetically pleasing and customizable but requires more maintenance. Metal sheds are durable and secure but can be prone to rust. Plastic sheds are low-maintenance and easy to assemble but may not be as sturdy as wood or metal.

Permit requirements vary by location. Check with your local building department or zoning office. Typically, small sheds (under 120 square feet) may not require a permit, but larger ones or those with electrical installations often do.

A solid foundation is crucial for stability and longevity. Options include concrete slabs, gravel bases, or wooden platforms. Choose a foundation based on your shed’s size, material, and the ground conditions of your site.
Look for sheds with features like weather-resistant materials, proper sealing, and robust construction. Ensure the shed has a good roof overhang, proper drainage, and secure locking mechanisms to protect against theft and weather damage.
Assembly time depends on the size and complexity of the shed. Small, simple sheds can be assembled in a few hours, while larger or more complex sheds may take a full day or more. Professional installation is also an option for those who prefer not to DIY.
Maintenance depends on the material. Wooden sheds need periodic painting or staining and checking for rot or pests. Metal sheds may need rust prevention treatments. Plastic sheds require minimal maintenance, typically just cleaning as needed.
Moving a shed is possible but can be challenging, especially for larger structures. It’s easier to move a smaller shed if it has a solid base. Consider the logistics and potential costs of moving before installation. If moving is likely, a portable shed might be a better option.
Many sheds come with detailed assembly instructions, making them suitable for DIY installation, especially smaller models. However, larger or more complex sheds may require professional installation to ensure they are properly and safely assembled. Assess your skill level, available tools, and the complexity of the shed before deciding.
