Those sloping Bromley gardens need proper foundations. Whether you're planning a workshop behind your Victorian terrace or extending that 1930s semi, a professionally laid concrete slab makes all the difference.

Bromley's mix of clay and London gravel presents unique challenges for groundwork. Many properties here, particularly around Sundridge and Bickley, sit on undulating terrain that demands careful preparation. Years of working with everything from compact Shortlands cottages to sprawling BR3 properties has taught us exactly how local soil conditions affect slab performance.
Steel reinforcement mesh sits at the heart of every pour, preventing the cracking that plagues DIY attempts. Proper membrane installation keeps moisture at bay - essential given Bromley's notorious autumn dampness. The concrete mix itself gets tailored to each project's load requirements, with thickness calculations based on intended use rather than guesswork. Edge formwork stays perfectly level throughout, ensuring water runs away from structures rather than pooling against walls.
Local builders regularly recommend our groundwork because consistency matters. Having supplied bases for countless Bromley home improvements, from contemporary garden offices to traditional greenhouse foundations, reliability has become our trademark.

A standard shed base (3m x 2.5m) typically ranges £800-1200, while larger garage foundations start around £2500. Site access and ground conditions affect final costs.
Absolutely - BR1 through BR3 forms our core service area, including Shortlands, Bickley and Sundridge. Same-day quotations available throughout these neighbourhoods.
Most domestic slabs cure sufficiently within 48 hours for light work. Full structural loads require 7-10 days, depending on weather conditions and slab thickness.
Each installation carries decade-long protection against structural failure. This covers cracking, subsidence and water ingress - documented with photographic evidence of steel placement and depth measurements.
Stepped or terraced designs handle slopes beautifully. We calculate cut-and-fill requirements to minimise excavation costs while ensuring perfect levels for your intended structure.
