Four practical base options

JustBases' public home base

Straightforward shed foundations for Ringwood gardens

Ringwood is the public and registered base of JustBases, and our shed-base service covers the town and surrounding BH24 communities. Local plots range from compact gardens near the centre to larger properties around Poulner, Hangersley and the Avon valley.

The first conversation remains simple: tell Craig the shed size, postcode and intended position. We compare the construction options and provide a written price for the most suitable foundation.

Choosing the construction

Support selected for the actual building

A small garden store and a machinery workshop should not automatically receive the same base.

Prepared paving

A practical option for suitable compact sheds where a level paved surface is accepted.

Poured concrete

Rigid full-area support for substantial buildings and heavier uses.

Raised systems

Timber frames or ground screws can be assessed for sloping plots and appropriate support layouts.

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

Genuine feedback on relevant base work

"Excellent quality and teamwork. Cheerful clean crew! Beautiful curved path and step... all done in 2 days!"

"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."

Local ground context

Avon deposits, terraces and higher ground

The BGS Ringwood district memoir records river alluvium and terraces around the Avon together with Palaeogene deposits and Chalk across the wider area. Those changes make a single 'Ringwood soil' description unreliable.

For a shed, the practical focus is the actual base position: near-surface stability, drainage, previous disturbance and the level needed by the building.

  • The Ringwood address does not predetermine the base type
  • The proposed threshold and surrounding levels are checked
  • The quotation explains preparation and disposal

Access handled with you

From town passages to rural approaches

Central Ringwood can involve narrow passages and limited unloading; outlying BH24 properties may have longer drives, gates or soft verges. We plan around the route without asking you for a technical access survey.

A route photograph and rough gate width are usually enough to decide whether a visit will help.

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

  • Narrowest gate or side passage
  • Unloading position
  • Shed model, footprint or bearer plan
Start with the basics

Useful local guidance

Two planning authorities around Ringwood

Most of Ringwood is served by New Forest District Council, while properties within the National Park boundary use the National Park Authority. The complete shed's height, position, use and property constraints determine the planning position.

Check the exact address against the correct authority; the base itself does not create an exemption for the building.

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 serving Ringwood

A supplier's dimensioned footprint or bearer plan helps us coordinate the base with the delivered building.

These are independently researched links, not endorsements or paid relationships. Confirm the current range, delivery area and base requirements directly with the building supplier.

Ringwood shed base FAQs

Yes. Ringwood remains the public and registered business base; operational routing does not change that public address.
