Need a solid foundation that won’t crack, rock or hold water? We install concrete bases across W6, working around busy streets near King Street and the riverside routes by Hammersmith Bridge. Whether it’s a shed base, summerhouse base or greenhouse base, we set out accurately and pour to the right thickness. Expect tidy workmanship, clear communication and a finish ready for immediate installation.
Homes in Hammersmith range from Victorian terraces and mansion flats to modern riverside developments, and each brings different access and load requirements. In tighter gardens around Brook Green or near Shepherd's Bush, we plan barrow routes, protect surfaces and manage spoil efficiently. For heavier loads like hot tubs and garage bases, we specify reinforcement and sub-base depth to suit. Our approach is practical, property-aware and designed to minimise disruption.
We start with a site visit to confirm levels, drainage falls and the best base size for your structure. Ground preparation is never rushed: we excavate, compact, install sub-base, add reinforcement where needed, then pour and finish to a true level. You’ll get straightforward guidance on curing times and when it’s safe to load the slab. Homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, clean edges and results backed by a 10-year warranty.
The concrete bases Hammersmith area often involve restricted access, controlled parking and shared pathways, especially around Chiswick and Fulham borders. We plan deliveries, barrowing and waste removal to suit tighter plots and mansion flat gardens. Local ground can vary from made-up garden soil to compacted sub-bases from older landscaping, so we assess and compact properly before pouring. We also work with the practical expectations of the concrete bases in London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham, keeping sites safe and considerate for neighbours.

Costs depend on size, thickness, access and whether reinforcement is required. As a guide, small shed or bin-store bases often start around £450–£900, while larger summerhouse or greenhouse bases are commonly £900–£1,800. Reinforced hot tub bases typically fall between £1,200–£2,500+. Difficult access in W6, extra excavation, or removal of old slabs can increase the price.
Most bases are completed in 1–2 days on site: day one for excavation, sub-base and shuttering, and day two for pouring and finishing (sometimes same day for smaller pads). You’ll usually need to allow 24–48 hours before light foot traffic and around 7 days before heavier loads, depending on weather. Access, spoil removal and reinforcement can extend timescales.
In many cases, a garden concrete base for a shed, summerhouse or greenhouse is permitted development, provided the structure and positioning meet the usual limits. However, rules can change for listed buildings, conservation areas, front gardens, or if drainage affects the public highway. We’ll flag any potential issues during the survey and can advise what to check with the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham before work starts.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for our concrete bases, covering issues such as sinking caused by poor preparation, significant cracking linked to installation, and drainage falls not formed as agreed. It assumes normal domestic use and that the base isn’t overloaded beyond the specified design. We also document the build-up (sub-base, reinforcement and thickness) so you know exactly what’s been installed.
We can build standard brushed concrete slabs, smooth power-floated finishes for certain uses, or bases with a neat trowelled edge. Options include reinforced mesh, thicker sections for hot tubs, and integrated drainage falls or channels to move water away from buildings. We’ll also match the base size to your shed, summerhouse or greenhouse manufacturer’s spec and advise on step-downs, thresholds and access paths.
