Friendly practical advice

One clear price

Written foundation scope

Three easy steps

From first call to a finished foundation

Getting started is simple. We will guide you through the choices and explain any information needed before installation.

01

Call, message or send the form

Tell Craig about the LPG tank, approximate size and postcode. You do not need a finished specification to start.

02

Talk through the options

We discuss the site and suitable foundations, identify any supplier information needed and provide a clear written quotation.

03

Install and hand over

Our team marks out and installs the agreed foundation, with the required checks before the next stage of your project.

Choose the foundation, not the complication

Foundation options for your LPG tank

These are the methods worth assessing for this application. The structure, support plan and actual ground determine the right choice—not a one-size-fits-all specification.

Prepared poured concrete base for a garden building

Concrete

Concrete foundation

A supplier-specified pad or support plinth is formed to the dimensions and construction detail approved for the tank.

Worth considering for: Above-ground domestic and commercial bulk LPG vessels

Clear prices, agreed scope

A price for your project

Specialist foundations need a quotation matched to the structure, ground and installation scope. A generic garden-building price would not reliably represent this project. Call Craig with your idea and postcode to get started.

No VAT is added to the guide prices shown.

Planned around its use

What matters for your LPG tank

JustBases can quote for the specified concrete base and related groundwork after the LPG supplier has issued or confirmed the site requirements. We do not position, connect or commission the tank.

Supplier-approved location

Buildings, boundaries, ignition sources and tanker hose access influence siting.

Correct tank supports

The pad and piers follow the selected vessel and supplier detail.

Impact protection

Vehicle barriers or bollards may be required where traffic could reach the tank.

Clear surroundings

Vegetation, fencing and storage must not compromise access or safety zones.

Before installation

Dimensions, approvals and responsibilities

Contact the LPG supplier before asking us to set out a base. They should confirm the tank type, orientation, siting and delivery access.

Below-ground tanks require a complete supplier installation detail for excavation, backfill, anchoring and cover. Ground screws are not a substitute for that system.

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.
