A solid base makes the difference between a structure that lasts and one that shifts, cracks or pools water. We install concrete bases for sheds, summerhouses, hot tubs, greenhouses and garages across BR3, with careful setting-out and a clean, level finish. Many clients are close to Eden Park station or along routes towards Beckenham and West Wickham, where access and parking can affect the pour. We plan the job so your garden stays tidy and the base is ready on schedule.
Eden Park’s quiet residential streets include plenty of 1930s semis, detached homes and well-kept Edwardian properties, often with long side access and established planting. That means we frequently work around narrow gates, patios, and mature borders without compromising the footprint of the slab. If you’re adding a greenhouse near the lawn or a hot tub by the patio, we’ll design the base thickness and reinforcement to suit the load. For homeowners wanting concrete bases eden park area, we tailor the build-up to your garden levels and intended use.
Our process starts with a site visit to confirm levels, finished height, and where water will run. We excavate, install a compacted sub-base, add shuttering, reinforcement where required, then pour and finish for a true, stable surface. We keep you informed on curing times before any heavy installation goes on top. Fine Landscaping is based in Norbury and we’re typically around 20 minutes away, so support is close by and aftercare is straightforward.
Across the London Borough of Bromley, gardens can vary from firm ground to softer made-up areas, especially where older landscaping has been reworked. We assess what’s under the turf, then specify the right sub-base depth and reinforcement to suit. Access around Eden Park and nearby Kelsey Park can be tight, so we plan deliveries and waste removal to reduce disruption. If needed, we can pour in stages to suit restricted access and protect existing paving.

Costs depend on size, thickness, access and whether reinforcement and drainage are needed. As a guide, small shed bases often start from around £350–£750, while larger summerhouse or greenhouse bases are commonly £800–£1,800. Hot tub bases and garage bases usually range from £1,200–£3,500+ due to thicker slabs and steel reinforcement. We’ll provide a clear written quote after measuring and checking ground conditions.
Most shed or greenhouse bases take 1 day on site, with larger summerhouse bases typically 1–2 days depending on excavation and sub-base depth. Hot tub and garage bases can take 2–4 days if extra dig-out, reinforcement and drainage are required. Concrete then needs curing time before loading: light foot traffic is usually fine after 24–48 hours, but heavy structures should wait around 7 days (longer in cold weather).
In many cases, a concrete base for a shed, greenhouse or summerhouse is permitted development, provided the structure meets height and location rules and you’re not covering front garden areas in a way that affects drainage. However, rules can change for listed buildings, conservation considerations, or larger outbuildings. We’ll flag any likely issues during the survey and can advise what to check with Bromley Council before work starts.
Yes. Our concrete base installations come with a 10-year warranty covering workmanship, including issues such as settlement caused by inadequate sub-base preparation, poor finishing, or edge failure related to installation. It doesn’t cover damage from third-party works, ground movement outside normal conditions, or overloading beyond the base design. We also provide guidance on curing and when to place your shed, hot tub or garage structure on the slab.
We can build standard smooth-finished slabs, reinforced bases for heavy loads, and bases with formed falls for drainage. Options include thicker edges for timber frames, recessed areas for pavers or decking finishes, and perimeter upstands where needed. For greenhouses and sheds, we can set anchor points or allow for bolt-down fixings. We’ll recommend the right thickness, steel mesh and finish based on your structure, garden levels and access.
