Victorian terraces in Shortlands often hide surprisingly deep gardens, perfect for substantial outbuildings. Modern shed bases need careful planning to handle Bromley's notorious drainage issues. Clay soil expands and contracts dramatically here, making professional groundwork essential. Those picturesque slopes around Bickley require specialist knowledge to create level, lasting foundations.
Concrete bases remain popular, but eco-friendly grid systems suit many Sundridge properties better. Each base type demands specific preparation depths based on your intended structure. Proper membrane installation prevents that frustrating weed breakthrough common in BR2 gardens. Drainage channels integrated during construction eliminate pooling water that plagues so many local installations.
Twelve years navigating Bromley's planning quirks gives us insight others lack. Local knowledge matters when positioning bases near those mature oak trees dotting BR3.
