Four practical base options

Built around the plot

A firm shed base without turning the garden into a puzzle

Brockenhurst gardens can combine trees, changing levels and constrained access in a National Park village setting. That makes it useful to keep all four base options open until the building and position are understood.

A call, WhatsApp message or form with the shed size is enough to start. Craig will advise what is worth considering and what is unnecessary.

Choosing the construction

Choose on evidence, not labels

Concrete, slabs and framed systems each have a place when their support and access characteristics fit.

Slabs

A tidy prepared surface for suitable smaller sheds.

Concrete

Full-area support for heavy workshops and rigid floor requirements.

Frames

Raised timber or screw-supported structures where point support and levels are appropriate.

Three easy steps

From first call to a shed-ready base

You do not need to work out the construction first. Tell us about the shed and garden; we will explain the suitable choices and price the agreed work.

  1. 01

    Call, WhatsApp or send the form

    Share the shed size, your postcode and what you know about the proposed position. That is enough to begin.

  2. 02

    Discuss the base and price

    Craig listens, arranges a site visit when it would help and provides a clear written quotation for the agreed foundation.

  3. 03

    We install the level base

    The team marks out and installs the chosen base to the agreed footprint, ready for the shed installation to follow.

Four practical choices

Choose the base that suits the shed and garden

You do not need to choose before contacting us. We compare the building, access, levels and intended use, then explain the simplest suitable option.

Prepared poured concrete base for a garden building

Poured concrete

A full-area slab for heavy sheds, workshops and buildings whose supplier requires a rigid continuous base.

  • Installed to the agreed footprint and finished level
  • Useful for heavier equipment and substantial timber buildings
  • We confirm when the shed installation can safely follow

From £695 for 8' × 6' (48 ft² / 4.46 m²)

Raised timber frame base being installed for a garden building

Raised timber frame

A treated support frame for suitable sheds on uneven or sloping gardens where a level platform is needed.

  • Supported at planned positions rather than across the full footprint
  • Can reduce excavation where garden levels change
  • Built to suit the shed footprint and bearer arrangement

From £840 for 8' × 6' (48 ft² / 4.46 m²)

Level paving slab base prepared for a small garden building

Paving slab base

A neat, level surface for many smaller sheds when the building supplier accepts a slabbed foundation.

  • Individual slabs laid on a properly prepared sub-base
  • Practical for storage sheds and compact garden buildings
  • Base dimensions coordinated with the shed before installation

From £620 for 9' × 5' (45 ft² / 4.18 m²)

Ground screws supporting a level timber frame in a garden

Ground screws

Installed galvanised supports for a suitable timber or steel frame, often with less full-footprint excavation.

  • Purpose-made machinery and laser-controlled levels
  • No concrete curing delay after the installed supports are checked
  • Support frame supplied by JustBases or coordinated with others

Installed screws from £1,180 for 8' × 6' (48 ft² / 4.46 m²); frame quoted separately

Work listed by the source: Concrete slab for shed

"Craig and his team have been fantastic. Had the team over twice now to help with our garden project and both times I've been super impressed with the work. The team are extremely hard working but most important to me is the quality of their workmanship. The fencing looks amazing and the cabin was spot on in terms of dimensions and perfectly level. I would highly recommend."

Local ground context

Varied New Forest deposits beneath village gardens

BGS mapping records sands, clays, gravels and valley deposits in the wider Brockenhurst area. Garden fill, drainage and previous hardstanding can introduce further local differences.

We use that regional information only as context and base the recommendation on the real site and shed support plan.

  • Regional geology is not presented as a plot diagnosis
  • Tree and drainage questions are handled proportionately
  • The foundation choice is explained in plain English

Access handled with you

Brockenhurst access without unnecessary demands

Village parking, gates, mature planting and longer garden routes can influence handling. You do not need to measure everything before asking for a price.

Start with the obvious constraints; photographs or a visit can settle the remaining questions.

Helpful if you have them—not required before you call:

  • Parking or unloading position
  • Gate width and overhanging branches
  • Approximate fall across the footprint
Start with the basics

Useful local guidance

National Park outbuilding checks

Brockenhurst sits within the New Forest National Park planning area. Domestic outbuilding rights still depend on the complete shed, property and site, and conservation or listed-building considerations may apply.

Check the current National Park guidance for the exact proposal.

Planning information is a practical starting point, not legal or planning advice. Confirm the position for the exact property and building with the relevant authority.

Choosing the building

Shed suppliers for Brockenhurst

A supplier's exact dimensions help align the base, delivery and door threshold.
