Delivery & Installation

  • All buildings require a concrete or slab base(not textured slabs) and must be flat and level.
  • We also recommend a sub-base, prices of which are on the price list above. This is made from 3" x 2" pressure treated timber and sits on top of your concrete or slabs. This allows the building to be elevated from the ground and keeps it out of the wet, prolonging the life of the building.
  • We require clear and unrestricted access to deliver and install your building with no height restrictions, low archways, cables, trees etc..
  • Installation is included in the price, there may be a delivery charge for buildings and Garden Furniture depending where you live. The cost of which will be provided. But local deliveries are free.
