How to lay Shed / Green house Concrete Base

Plan & Measure
Mark out the area to ensure correct dimensions.

Clear the Site
Remove any vegetation or debris.

Excavate the Area
Dig to 200mm depth, allowing for sub-base and concrete.

Level & Compact the Ground
Use a plate compactor or roller to create a stable base.

Add a Sub-Base (ask us if you’re not sure)
Lay a layer of Type 1 aggregate and compact it well.

Install Formwork (Shuttering)
Use timber or metal forms to contain and shape concrete.

Ensure Proper Drainage
Include a slight slope if needed to prevent water pooling.

Lay a Damp-Proof Membrane
Helps prevent moisture from rising into the concrete.

Reinforce (Rebar)
Use Rebar or mesh for added strength and durability.

Double-Check Levels & Alignment
Use a spirit level or laser level for accuracy.

Prepare for Pouring
Ensure easy access for concrete delivery and have tools ready.
