What the foundation needs to do
Bulk LPG storage is safety-critical. The fuel supplier controls tank siting, separation distances, tanker access and the approved support arrangement.
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.
Options, assessed properly
Suitable foundation methods
The methods below are possibilities to assess—not interchangeable specifications. We match the foundation to the product, loads, support points, ground and access.
A written price for the approved detail
Specialist foundations are quoted from the actual product, support plan and site information. No VAT is added to the guide prices shown.
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.

"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. Then creating a whole new base with precision engineering in preparation to accept a new building on top. The result was an excellent job all round."
