A well-built base is the difference between a structure that lasts and one that shifts, cracks or pools water. We install concrete bases across SW6, including around Fulham Broadway and Parsons Green, tailored to your project and access. Whether you need a shed base, summerhouse base or a stable platform for a hot tub, we deliver a clean, level finish. Every pour is planned for load, drainage and the final footprint.
Fulham’s mix of Victorian terraces, mansion flats and modern riverside apartments often comes with compact gardens and shared access routes. That means base sizes, spoil removal and concrete delivery need careful coordination. We’re used to working near Bishops Park and along the busier streets where parking and timing matter. If you’re upgrading a courtyard or rear garden, we design the base to suit the structure and the way you’ll use the space.
We start with a site visit to confirm levels, ground make-up and the best drainage route, then set out accurately before excavation. Sub-base, formwork and reinforcement are installed to spec, followed by a controlled pour and a crisp, level finish ready for installation. We keep the site tidy, protect surrounding paving and planting, and communicate timings clearly. Homeowners choose us for dependable workmanship, transparent guidance and a 10-year warranty on our concrete base installations.
In the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham, we often encounter restricted access, controlled parking and narrow side passages behind terraces. Ground conditions can vary from made-up garden soil to firmer sub-layers, so we adjust excavation depth and sub-base to suit. We plan deliveries to minimise disruption and can use barrowed concrete or pumped options where appropriate. The result is a base that performs well and looks sharp in Fulham’s high-value outdoor spaces.

Costs vary by size, depth, access and whether reinforcement or drainage is needed. As a guide, smaller shed or greenhouse bases often start around £450–£900. Medium summerhouse bases are commonly £900–£1,800. Heavy-duty hot tub or garage bases with thicker slabs and steel mesh can be £1,800–£4,500+. Tight access in the concrete bases Fulham area can increase labour and delivery costs.
Most bases are completed in 1–2 days on site: day one for excavation, sub-base and formwork, then the pour and finishing. Larger or reinforced slabs, complex drainage, or difficult access can push this to 2–3 days. Concrete typically needs 24–48 hours before light foot traffic and around 7 days before heavier loads, with full curing continuing beyond that. Weather and ground conditions also affect timings.
In many cases, a garden concrete base for a shed, summerhouse or greenhouse is permitted development, provided the structure meets height and location rules. However, listed buildings, conservation areas, front-garden works, or changes affecting drainage can trigger extra requirements. We’ll advise on practical compliance and, where needed, help you check guidance for concrete bases in London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham before work starts.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our concrete base workmanship, covering issues such as settlement caused by inadequate sub-base preparation, poor compaction, or incorrect reinforcement installation. It also covers defects linked to our finishing and levels where they affect usability. The warranty doesn’t cover damage from third-party alterations, exceptional ground movement outside the base footprint, or misuse/overloading beyond the design. We document the build-up so you know exactly what’s been installed.
We tailor the slab to the structure: standard shed bases, thicker reinforced hot tub bases, or garage bases designed for higher loads. Options include steel mesh reinforcement, thickened edges, integrated drainage falls, and a brushed or float finish depending on slip and appearance needs. We can also set in anchor points for frames and ensure precise dimensions for pre-fabricated buildings. We’ll recommend the best specification after measuring and checking levels on site.
