That corner of your Keston garden deserves a proper foundation before your new shed arrives. From compact urban plots near Hayes Lane to the more generous gardens towards Farnborough, getting the base right means everything else follows smoothly.

Garden sheds in BR2 face unique challenges - clay soil that shifts with the seasons, mature tree roots that complicate excavation, and those awkward slopes common to properties backing onto Keston Common. A professionally installed base transforms these obstacles into opportunities. Whether you're storing garden equipment or creating a workshop space, the foundation determines how well your shed performs over the decades.
Concrete bases suit most Keston gardens, particularly where drainage already poses challenges near the Ravensbourne valley. Eco-grid systems work brilliantly for environmentally conscious homeowners who want permeability without sacrificing strength. Timber frame bases prove ideal for sloping sites - we've installed dozens on those tricky gardens that step down towards Bromley. Each method addresses specific ground conditions while meeting building regulations that apply even to domestic outbuildings.
Twenty years of working Keston's varied terrain means recognising which solution fits before the first spade hits soil. Local knowledge matters when you're navigating everything from conservation area requirements to understanding exactly where those underground springs tend to surface after heavy rain.
Rated 4.9/5 from over 280 verified reviews
Basic 6x4ft concrete bases typically run £350-450, while larger 10x8ft installations with additional ground preparation reach £750-950. Eco-grid alternatives often cost 15-20% less, though sites requiring significant levelling near Keston Common may push costs higher.
Absolutely - from the village centre out to Leaves Green, plus neighbouring Hayes and Farnborough. BR2's spread means we're equally comfortable working compact suburban gardens or the larger plots towards Downe.
Standard installations take 1-2 days including cure time. Most Keston projects start within 5-7 working days of confirmation, weather permitting. Complex sites with access restrictions might need an extra morning.
Every base carries our decade-long structural warranty covering settlement, cracking or water ingress issues. This comprehensive protection reflects our confidence in both materials and workmanship throughout Keston.
Irregular shapes are no problem - we've created bases for everything from corner summer houses to L-shaped workshop combinations. Simply provide dimensions and we'll calculate the most efficient approach for your specific structure.
