Shed Bases

Benefits of a Shed Base

Stability

A quality base for your shed sets a solid foundation for storing your garden equipment by making sure your shed is on level ground. The last thing you want is for your shed to start sinking, so a shed base is essential for longevity!

Protection & Durability

By making sure your shed isn’t in direct contact with the ground, you’ll prolong its life and protect it from water damage. This is especially important with wooden sheds, as excess damp can be very difficult to fix.

Better drainage

Wet weather is a given in our gardens and shouldn’t be something to fear. Protect your shed from pooling water by installing an easy-to-use shed base!

FAQs

What materials can I use for a shed base?

Choose from a wide range of pressure-treated timber shed bases, a durable and reliable material to protect your shed. We also have clever plastic shed bases which naturally repel water and halt the growth of weeds under your shed.

What size should my shed base be?

With so many sizes of sheds available, from 6x4 sheds for compact storage to larger 10x6 sheds and beyond, we stock a good selection of sizes of shed base to get you started. If you can’t find a shed base to match the exact measurements of your shed, play it safe and get a shed base that is slightly larger.

Can I install a shed base myself? Our shed bases are easy to install.

Prepare you ground by removing debris (a tiller is very useful for this) and level the soil using a rake before compacting the soil to create a hard surface.
