Take a look at our frequently asked questions on our garden buildings.
No, but to extend the life of your building we do recommend that its posts are sat on a padstone a minimum of 200mm2, to minimise the amount of moisture absorbed into the wood through the floor. We also strongly advise that the structure sits on a concrete pad or patio with a minimum of 100mm clearance all the way round from outside post to outside post.
When casting a concrete base, we would advise a minimum depth of 150mm. Please note that where bespoke buildings especially those requiring a damp proof course will be advised on separately.
No, but it is essential that we keep within your existing planning guidelines, and this may affect where you choose to position your structure. For further information, please see the link to the planning portal.
