A concrete shed base is the best foundation for any garden shed. Quality Mix supplies concrete shed bases and garage bases across Liverpool, and we can also prepare the area if needed.
Shed bases are straightforward to install. They need minimal excavation — just a simple timber frame sitting 2 to 3 inches above ground level. We deliver concrete by wheelbarrow where direct access is not available. This keeps costs down and still gives you a solid, level base.
Most shed bases do not need reinforcement. However, we can add steel mesh if extra strength is needed. For concrete sectional garages, a foundation is not required. Brick and block garages do need foundation work due to the weight of the structure.

Shed Base & Garage Base FAQs
How thick should a concrete shed base be?
For most garden sheds, 4 inches (100mm) of concrete is sufficient. For heavier garages, we recommend 6 inches (150mm) with steel mesh reinforcement for extra strength.
Do I need a concrete base for a shed?
A concrete base is the best option — it keeps the structure level, prevents moisture rising from the ground, and protects the shed floor from rot. It’s a permanent, solid foundation that won’t shift over time.
How much does a concrete shed base cost in Liverpool?
The cost depends on the size and any preparation work needed. Quality Mix provides free quotes for all shed and garage bases across Liverpool and Cheshire. Call 0151 424 1600 to discuss your project.
Can you pour a concrete garage base without foundations?
For a concrete sectional garage a simple slab is sufficient — no strip foundations needed. For a brick or block garage, foundation work is required to support the weight of the walls. We can advise on the right approach for your project.
