A shed is only as good as what it sits on, and W4 gardens can quickly show up poor ground prep. We install shed bases designed for real use—storage, bikes, tools or a compact workshop—without rocking, sinking or pooling water. From plots near Chiswick High Road to quieter streets by Chiswick House, we build bases that suit the space and access. Every base is set out accurately so your shed doors open cleanly and the floor stays square.
Chiswick’s mix of Georgian houses, Victorian villas and Edwardian family homes often comes with mature gardens, narrow side returns and established planting to protect. We’re used to working around patios, paths and boundary walls, keeping disruption low and finishes tidy. If you’re in the shed bases chiswick area and need a base that complements existing paving or a period garden layout, we’ll match levels and edges carefully. Where access is tight, we plan materials and waste removal to avoid damage to lawns and paving.
We start with a site visit to measure, check levels, and agree the best base type for your shed and ground. Preparation includes excavation where needed, a compacted sub-base, and drainage considerations so water doesn’t sit under the structure. You’ll get clear options, a written scope, and workmanship backed by our 10-year warranty. Homeowners choose us for consistent levels, clean lines, and a base that doesn’t move after the first winter.
We’re familiar with access challenges around terraces and larger plots near Gunnersbury and Kew borders, where side passages can be narrow and parking is controlled. Ground conditions vary, so we adjust excavation depth, sub-base build-up and drainage to suit. We also plan deliveries and waste removal to minimise disruption on residential streets. If needed, we can advise on practical placement to avoid roots, drains and low spots.

Costs depend on size, base type and how much groundwork is required. As a guide, small paving slab bases often start around £350–£700, while larger or more complex slab bases can be £800–£1,500. Concrete bases typically range from £700–£2,000+ depending on thickness, reinforcement and access. Plastic grid bases can be £450–£1,200, and timber bases vary widely with specification.
Most shed base installations take 1 day for smaller slab or grid bases, and 1–2 days for larger areas or where excavation is needed. Concrete bases may need a day to install plus curing time before the shed goes on (often 48–72 hours, longer in cold weather). Timescales depend on access, waste removal, ground levels, and whether we’re integrating drainage or matching existing paving heights.
In many cases, a shed base and a typical garden shed fall under permitted development, so planning permission isn’t required. However, rules can change depending on shed size, height, proximity to boundaries, and whether your property is listed or in a conservation area. We’ll flag any likely issues during the survey and can help you check guidance for the London Borough of Hounslow before work starts.
Yes. Our shed base installations come with a 10-year workmanship warranty. It covers issues caused by installation faults, such as significant settlement from poor sub-base preparation or incorrect levels affecting usability. It doesn’t cover damage from external factors like flooding, tree root movement, or changes made by others after completion. We also recommend suitable base types and drainage to reduce long-term risk in your garden.
We install concrete bases (ideal for heavy sheds and workshops), paving slab bases (clean, practical and easy to repair), plastic grid bases (great for drainage and lighter structures), and timber bases (useful where raised ventilation is beneficial). Design options include edging details, step-downs, and matching levels to patios or paths. We’ll recommend the best choice based on shed weight, ground conditions, and access in the shed bases in London Borough of Hounslow area.
