You're On Good Ground
We have four foundation systems available to manage the different ground conditions that you may have. We can construct our garden rooms onto an existing level concrete base, uneven concrete surfaces and also onto lawn or soil areas using in most cases, our precast concrete plinth foundation system, or in some cases a screw pile system. The foundation system is chosen to meet your individual ground conditions and specified to manage the building loads.
Existing Level Concrete Base
If you have an existing level concrete base, we can install your garden room directly onto this bases with a DPM layer and structural floor connectors.
Existing Uneven Concrete Base
Height adjustable steel feet,used to level the building on uneven existing concrete bases. Sometimes used in conjunction with other methods below to span an old existing slab.
Grass or Soil Areas Using Precast Concrete Plinths
Suitable for most grass or soil areas, height adjustable to provide a level base for construction and a sound footing onto the ground. Inclusive of a full site weed control fabric.
Screw Piles For Larger Building & Challenging Conditions
To depths of 1000mm, 1500mm and 2000mm, depending on the specific site requirements. Inclusive of a full site weed control fabric.
