Effortless and rapid to set up, the 10×4 plastic shed base kit by ProBASE is perfect for bypassing the inconvenience of placing slabs or pouring concrete when establishing a foundation for a new shed. Its interlocking structure simplifies assembly and, despite its light weight, it offers a robust and long-lasting base for the shed. Crafted from entirely recycled plastic, this shed base is environmentally conscious. Moreover, it can be repurposed if the shed’s position is changed. The base promotes airflow and drainage beneath the shed, aiding in maintaining a dry floor for the shed. To set up the base, simply interlock the square grids and place them on a solid, even patch of ground. We suggest utilizing 15kg of 10m pea gravel for each square (gravel not provided). Each square measures 500 x 500 x 40mm in size. This package includes 18 squares and a tough, commercially-rated weed barrier. – Sturdy grid system for shed base that interlocks seamlessly – Straightforward to set up and connect – Environmentally friendly, top-notch recycled plastic – Well-ventilated layout – Tough membrane included – Thorough guidance and assistance from customer service – Backed by a 2-year warranty

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.
