12ft x 8ft Plastic Shed Base Customer Review
If you are already a shed or cabin owner with a wooden base, the chances are unless you have
taken every precaution then your wood may have started to rot. This means water is being absorbed
by the wood and damaging the support. It can be an extremely tough job replacing them.
Using our shed base ensures that the ground under your base is permeable, so no water can get
sucked up by your shed or the support. Meaning no big replacement job needed either, see what
our customer Loron decided to go with in our blog below!
The Project
Loron got in touch with us last year as he had
purchased a new shed from Simply Sheds and was
looking at all of the options he had in terms of a
bases. There was a large area that needed to be
covered, which of course isn't an easy job when it
comes to pouring conrete or laying paving slabs.
After researching and speaking to us Loron bought
a Plastic Shed Base and a roll of Membrane from
us. He bought from us as our website was the
easiest to use to find the right products. His base
was delivered 3 days later in easy to handle boxes
in a 1 hour designated time slot from our courier. The only item Loron didn't buy from us was
decorative gravel which was bought from a local hardware store later on.
Loron was doing the work himself and had a secluded area of grass and soil ready and prepared
for his base to be laid and his shed to stand on.
Including the shed, Loron paid around £1500 for the project.

The Work
Loron started off his project by emptying the
bottom of his garden, which as you can see from
the photos at the bottom of the page was full of
paving stones, plants and plant pots. Next he
outlined the 12ft x 8ft area where the base would
stand and evened out the ground. After he rolled
out the membrane over the entire area.
Once the membrane was secured the plastic
shed base was easily built and laid down. With
the base down it is just a matter of making it look
a little more attractive, which Loron did by covering
in his locally bought gravel. When the gravel had been poured over the base it was spread
evenly to ensure no gaps were visable. Finally, the shed was ready to be placed on the base. So
not much work to get a solid, permeable base down in next to no time!
Conclusion
As you can see from the photos, Loron's shed is
rather large. Which shows how strong our bases
are, they can handle far far greater weight than a
shed too! Loron told us how pleased he was
with his shed base and how easy it was to lay.
"I laid the base myself which was relatively easy
and provided the perfect base for the shed, sturdy
and flexible solution that was a lot easier than a
concrete base I would and have recommended
you to others!"
A big thanks to Loron for the photos and the
information he sent us to write this blog.
