A shed is only as good as what it sits on, and a base that’s out of level can quickly lead to sticking doors and damp floors. We install shed bases eastfields area homeowners can rely on, sized precisely to your shed or workshop. Whether you’re near Eastfields station or walking distance from Figges Marsh, we’ll create a firm, tidy footprint that suits your garden and access.
Eastfields has a mix of Victorian terraces, 1930s semis and newer developments, often with side passages, shared boundaries and compact rear gardens. We’re used to working carefully around existing patios, fences and planting, keeping disruption low. From Mitcham to Pollards Hill, we tailor the base type to how you’ll use the shed and how the ground behaves through wet winters.
Our process starts with accurate measuring, ground preparation and a stable sub-base, then a level finish with falls and drainage where needed. You’ll get clear options on concrete, slab, plastic grid or timber bases, plus honest advice on what’s best for your shed’s weight and location. Homeowners choose us for reliable scheduling, clean workmanship and a 10-year warranty on our base installation.
Across the London Borough of Merton, gardens can vary from firm ground to softer, moisture-holding soils, especially after heavy rain. In Eastfields, access is often via narrow side alleys or shared paths, so we plan materials delivery and waste removal carefully. We also consider parking and local constraints, and we’ll advise on drainage and finished levels to protect nearby paving and boundaries.

Costs depend on size, base type and ground preparation. As a guide, small paving slab bases often start around £350–£700, while concrete bases commonly range from £650–£1,500+. Plastic grid bases can be £450–£1,200 depending on depth and edging, and timber bases typically £500–£1,300. Poor access, removal of old bases, and extra sub-base depth can increase the price.
Most shed bases are completed in 1 day for standard sizes with straightforward access. Larger bases, significant excavation, or replacing an old base can take 2–3 days. Concrete bases may need additional curing time before the shed is installed, typically 48–72 hours for light use, longer in cold or wet weather. Slab and grid bases are often ready immediately once finished and compacted.
In many cases, a shed and its base are permitted development, especially when kept within typical height and location limits and used for domestic purposes. However, rules can change for front gardens, listed buildings, flats, or if you’re in a restricted area. We’ll talk through your plans, check practical constraints, and flag when you may need to confirm details with Merton Council before work starts.
We provide a 10-year warranty on our shed base installation, covering workmanship issues such as significant settlement caused by inadequate preparation or incorrect build-up. It also covers problems linked to base levels and stability when used as intended. The warranty doesn’t cover damage from flooding, tree root movement, ground heave, or changes made after completion. We’ll explain care tips and loading limits for your chosen base type.
We install concrete bases for heavy sheds and workshops, paving slab bases for flexible, cost-effective platforms, plastic grid bases for permeable, well-draining support, and timber bases where raised, ventilated construction is preferred. We can add edging, adjust finished height to meet thresholds, and build in falls for drainage. We’ll recommend the best option based on shed size, weight, location, and how you’ll use the space.
