A shed is only as good as what it stands on, especially in W1 where space is valuable and finishes matter. We design and install shed bases that stay level, drain properly and suit your garden layout. From compact courtyard spaces near Mount Street to larger rear gardens close to Hyde Park, we tailor the base to the site. Expect tidy workmanship and a base that’s ready for your shed straight away.
Mayfair properties range from Georgian mansions and palatial townhouses to luxury apartments with terraces and communal gardens. These settings often demand careful access planning, clean edges and minimal disruption to neighbours. We’re used to working around premium paving, basement lightwells and landscaped courtyards where precision is non-negotiable. If you’re comparing shed bases Mayfair area options, we’ll recommend the right build-up for your ground and intended use.
Our process starts with a site visit to confirm levels, drainage routes and the best base type for the shed size. We handle preparation properly: excavation where needed, compacted sub-base, accurate falls and a crisp, level finish. Work is scheduled to fit Mayfair access constraints, with clear communication throughout. Homeowners choose us for reliable timelines, careful workmanship and a 10-year warranty for peace of mind.
Mayfair gardens can sit over older groundworks and mixed subsoils, so we check stability before building. Access is often via narrow side passages or managed entrances, and parking restrictions in the City of Westminster can affect deliveries. We plan materials and waste removal to keep the job efficient and discreet. Near Berkeley Square and surrounding streets, we also take extra care to protect existing stone, planting and high-end surfaces.

Costs depend on size, base type and how much preparation is required. As a guide, small paving slab bases often start around £350–£800, while timber or plastic grid bases are commonly £500–£1,200. A reinforced concrete base for a larger shed is typically £900–£2,500+. Restricted access, waste removal, and levelling on uneven ground can increase the overall budget.
Most shed bases are completed in 1 day, with larger or more complex builds taking 2–3 days. Concrete bases may need additional curing time before the shed is installed, depending on thickness and weather. Timescales are affected by access, excavation depth, removal of existing slabs, and whether drainage improvements are needed. We’ll confirm a realistic schedule after the site survey.
In many cases, a shed base is permitted development and doesn’t require planning permission, provided the shed and its position meet the usual rules. However, Mayfair properties may be listed, within conservation areas, or subject to leaseholder/freeholder restrictions. Drainage requirements can also apply if you’re changing how water runs off. We’ll flag any likely issues and advise what to check with the City of Westminster before work starts.
Yes. We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for shed bases we install. This covers issues such as settlement caused by inadequate preparation, poor compaction, or incorrect levels, provided the base hasn’t been altered and the shed is used as intended. Materials are installed to manufacturer guidance, and we’ll explain any maintenance points (for example, timber base ventilation) to help keep everything performing well.
We install concrete bases (including reinforced options), paving slab bases, plastic grid bases for permeable ground, and timber bases for lighter structures. Design choices include flush finishes, raised edges, and subtle falls for drainage. We’ll help you choose based on shed size, weight, access for materials, and the look you want alongside existing paving or planting. We also build bases for all sizes, including bespoke footprints.
