Built for this application
A rabbitry may be an enclosed shed with internal pens or a connected house and exercise run. Because rabbits dig and are vulnerable to predators, the floor and perimeter need to be designed together.
We create a base to the housing plan, leaving the animal-welfare specialist to define enrichment, ventilation, enclosure mesh and final floor covering.
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 slab provides secure, cleanable support beneath an enclosed rabbitry and closes the covered footprint against burrowing.
Often worth considering for: Permanent shed-style rabbitries and rescue housing
From £695 for 8' × 6' (48 ft² / 4.46 m²)
Paving slabs
Paving can suit a compact domestic house and run when combined with an appropriate secure perimeter.
Often worth considering for: Garden rabbit housing with modest loads
From £620 for 9' × 5' (45 ft² / 4.18 m²)
Ground screws
Screws and a frame can support a raised timber shelter, but the exercise run still needs an approved anti-dig detail.
Often worth considering for: Raised houses on damp or sloping gardens
Installed screws from £1,180 for 8' × 6' (48 ft² / 4.46 m²); frame quoted separately
These starting points come directly from the current JustBases pricing data. No VAT is added to the guide prices shown. Your quotation confirms the suitable system and exact scope.
Before installation
Concrete is not automatically the desired surface across every exercise area. Agree animal-safe floor finishes and enrichment with the housing designer.
If the rabbitry is commercial, rescue or breeding accommodation, confirm any licensing, planning and welfare requirements before fixing the layout.
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 rabbitry, 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.
Genuine customer feedback
"I couldn't recommend Craig highly enough! Communication prior to the job was outstanding even considering our ever changing goal posts. Craig and his team turned up exactly at the agreed time, were well presented, friendly and professional. The cleanliness, attention to detail and quality of the job was outstanding."
"Good standard of workmanship. Friendly and efficient. Prompt response for estimate and fitted into our timescale. Will be using the firm in future and thoroughly recommend 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."
