rofessional concrete bases for garages and sheds of all sizes
I specialise in high-quality concrete garage bases for domestic and small agricultural properties. A properly constructed concrete foundation is essential for any garage — providing a stable, load-bearing surface that prevents movement, cracking, and long-term structural issues.
Whether you’re building a new garage, replacing an old one, or adding a workshop, I handle the complete groundwork and concrete base so your garage goes up straight and stays that way.
Why Choose a Concrete Base for Your Garage?
Heavy Load Support - Designed to withstand the weight of vehicles, tools, and equipment without sinking or shifting.
Perfect Level Surface - Ensures doors open and close smoothly and walls go up straight and true.
Durability & Longevity - Resistant to ground movement, frost, oil spills, and everyday wear — far superior to gravel or timber bases.
Improved Drainage - Installed with correct falls to prevent water pooling, protecting your vehicles and stored items from damp.
Weed & Pest Prevention - A solid slab stops weeds pushing through and deters rodents and insects.
Future-Proof Investment - A quality concrete base adds value to your property and reduces future repair costs.
Our Garage Base Process
I manage the full project from start to finish with minimal disruption:
Site Survey & Planning - I visit your location to assess ground conditions, measure the garage footprint, and recommend the best base specification.
Site Dig-Out & Clearance - Full excavation and removal of turf, topsoil, and unsuitable material to the required depth.
Groundwork Preparation - Compacted stone sub-base (MOT Type 1 or equivalent) for excellent stability and drainage.
Formwork & Reinforcement - Professional timber shuttering and steel mesh reinforcement to handle heavy loads.
Concrete Pour & Finish - High-strength concrete poured and finished to a smooth, durable surface (power-floated or brushed as preferred). Thickness typically 150mm for standard garages, with options for thicker slabs on softer ground.
Curing & Cleanup - Proper curing time followed by a thorough site tidy-up, leaving you ready for garage installation.
