In gardens all over the UK, sheds are more than wooden boxes in a corner. They are storage, workshops, potting sheds, and even in some cases, quiet havens. Regardless of how well a shed has been designed, however, its performance and life all come down to what is hidden beneath. Even before the first wall goes up, then, care has to be taken over the Shed Base. A solid, dependable base not only maintains the structure level and dry but ensures that it withstands the damp British weather with ease.
