Concrete Bases in Atherton
A shed or garden room is only as good as the base under it. We dig out, shutter, pour and level concrete bases built to your supplier’s exact spec. Around three miles from our Leigh base.
Concrete Bases for Atherton Gardens
From garden rooms and home offices to sheds, greenhouses and hot tubs, everything solid in a garden starts with a solid base. We dig, shutter, pour and level concrete bases across Atherton, built to the spec the structure on top actually needs, not a one-size-fits-all slab.
We cover Atherton and the surrounding area: Hag Fold, Hindsford, Howe Bridge, Gibfield, Chanters and beyond (M46).

What’s Included
Older Atherton gardens often come with surprises below ground, buried flags, brick rubble, the remains of long-gone outbuildings, so we price the dig honestly after seeing the site, not from a photo. Newer plots around Gibfield are usually simpler: mark out, dig out, pour, done.
- Shed bases, garden room bases, offices and summerhouses
- Reinforced garage bases and hot tub bases
- Built to your supplier’s exact base specification
- Full dig-out with soil and waste carted away
- Compacted hardcore sub-base under every pour
- Shuttered, tamped and laser-levelled
How It Works
Concrete Bases in Atherton, FAQs
Yes, garden room and office bases are a big part of our concrete work now. Give us the supplier’s base specification and we’ll build to it exactly, flat and square, so the installers have nothing to complain about.
We can. Plenty of Atherton base jobs start with taking down a tired shed and breaking out a cracked old slab. One team, one quote, from clearance to cured concrete.
For most sheds and garden rooms, around 100mm of concrete over a compacted hardcore sub-base is the standard. A garage base, hot tub base or heavier structure usually needs 150mm with reinforcement mesh. If your building comes with a supplier spec, we build to that. It overrides any rule of thumb.
Yes, that’s exactly how we prefer to work. Most garden room and shed companies issue a base drawing with dimensions, thickness and tolerance. Send it over with your enquiry and we’ll quote against it, so the installers have nothing to complain about when they arrive.
You can walk on fresh concrete after a day or two, but most suppliers want the base cured for around five to seven days before a building goes up, and concrete keeps gaining strength for weeks after that. We’ll give you a straight answer on timing when we pour, based on the weather and the load going on top.
