Built for this application
BBQ huts and Grillkotas are commonly hexagonal or octagonal, with a central grill and a floor ventilation arrangement. A generic square pad can be wasteful and may interfere with air inlets or the building's base ring.
We set out the exact supplier plan and discuss the grill, flue, ventilation and finished threshold before choosing a slab, paved base or framed ground-screw solution.
Options, assessed properly
The methods below are possibilities to assess—not interchangeable specifications. We match the foundation to the product, loads, support points, ground and access.
Concrete
A shaped or oversize concrete slab provides a rigid platform and can incorporate planned ventilation penetrations where the manufacturer permits.
Often worth considering for: Substantial year-round huts and designs requiring a non-combustible full-area base
Paving slabs
Carefully laid paving can form an attractive shaped floor, with central and perimeter details coordinated to the hut instructions.
Often worth considering for: Traditional timber grill huts accepted on a slabbed base
Ground screws
A ground-screw frame may suit a raised timber floor when it is compatible with the grill, heat shielding and ventilation design.
Often worth considering for: Sloping sites and manufacturer-approved raised hut floors
Specialist foundations are quoted from the actual product, support plan and site information. No VAT is added to the guide prices shown.
Before installation
Provide the complete hut and grill installation manual before work begins. Ventilation and fire clearances are safety-critical and cannot be inferred from a marketing photograph.
A flued cooking building may have siting, neighbour and fire-safety considerations beyond ordinary garden furniture. Check the whole proposed installation and follow the appliance manufacturer's instructions.
JustBases quotes the agreed foundation and groundwork. Product installation, specialist connections, commissioning and third-party design remain outside our scope unless the written quotation expressly includes them.
A simple route forward
Tell us about the BBQ hut, approximate size and site. We will identify any useful supplier information.
We assess access, levels, support requirements and ground, then provide a clear written quotation.
Our team installs the agreed base and leaves it ready for the approved building or equipment installer.

"Craig and his team were very professional throughout the job. They worked tirelessly and extremely hard. The job involved digging up a thick reinforced concrete base.
