Concrete-base enquiries

A solid start for what comes next.

Preparation, access, levels and intended use all matter before a base is specified for a shed, garden room or outdoor structure.

Project approach

The finished structure
depends on the base.

A concrete base needs to suit the proposed structure and the conditions of the site. The genuine GEM Landscaping image below comes from outdoor-structure project work; exact dimensions and specifications vary and are confirmed for each enquiry.

Information before specification

GEM will need to understand the structure, proposed size, site access, existing ground, nearby levels and drainage. That information helps establish whether the requested base is practical and what needs to happen before installation.

The case study shows the evidence available for this GEM project. A new site still needs its own checks rather than copying another property’s specification.

01

Purpose & footprint

For a similar base, GEM first checks the intended structure, usable footprint and access around it.

02

Preparation & level

Existing ground, excavation, build-up and the required finished level are reviewed before the base specification is agreed.

03

Access & placement

The route for materials and concrete matters, especially where wheelbarrow or pump access is limited.
