Timber Frame Bases

If you don’t already have a suitable base in place, we can supply and install a timber frame base, built to suit the exact size of your shed or garden building.

Our timber bases are a popular option for customers who want a strong, reliable foundation without the hassle of digging out, laying slabs, or organising concrete.

Simple, tidy, and job done.

A Convenient Alternative to Concrete or Slabs

A timber frame base is a great solution when:

  • You don't have an existing base
  • You want a quicker and convenient option
  • Your garden has a slope or uneven ground
  • You want to avoid digging out and hardcore sub-bases

Our timber bases are suitable for most areas and can often be installed in locations where a traditional base would be more difficult.

What Is a Timber Frame Base?

A timber frame base is a raised platform that supports your building off the ground.

This helps create airflow underneath the building, keeping the floor structure dry and well supported.

Timber Base Specification

All of our timber bases are built using pressure treated timber and constructed to a high standard.

Our timber base includes:

  • 4" x 2" timber frame
  • 4" x 4" timber legs
  • Designed to suit the exact size of your building
  • Built to raise the building above ground level for airflow and support

Installation Options

Depending on your site and ground conditions, timber bases can be installed as either:

Freestanding Base

A solid raised frame supported by timber legs, ideal for when you already have an existing hardstanding base in place, such as concrete or tarmac.

This type of timber base sits neatly on top of the existing surface, raising the building slightly for improved airflow and protection.

Concreted-In Base

Where extra stability is needed, legs can be concreted into the ground for a stronger permanent foundation.

We will always advise which option is best based on your location and ground type.

Why Choose a Timber Frame Base?

A timber base is a great option because:

  • No digging out required
  • No hardcore or subbase required
  • Ideal for sloping or uneven ground
  • Raises the building off the ground for better airflow
  • A quicker, cleaner solution than concrete
  • Installed by our own team to ensure it's level and correct
