What we need you to do before the installation?
Please ensure that a suitable base is provided for the building you have ordered, which must be firm and level and with no obstructions i.e. trees, objects or anything that will encroach on the working space. There must be a clearance of at least 1 metre all the way around the shed. The installer requires access to all sides of the shed.
The base must be level and must be a minimum of the size of the roof dimensions of the building.
If you have ordered a shed and timber kit/foundation grid then there are separate charges for installation of the shed and base, pricing details are shown on the product pages.
Please check that access to your garden will allow a clear passage for installers and product. Please ensure that the installation team have suitable space to park their vehicle.
Health and Safety and insurance liabilities prevent us from entering your property for access and should you live in a flat we will only be able to deliver the building and will have to abort the installation.
It is essential that you are available when the installation team arrive and when they have finished the building to ensure that the product in installed in the correct location and to your satisfaction. The installation team will ask you to sign a customer satisfaction form. You should note on this form any problems that you have with the building at this point. If problems haven’t been noted at this point and a re-visit is required to resolve the problem you will be charged a call out fee.

The shed will be anchored down with suitable anchor bolts (if purchased with the shed).
ShedMaster does not supply concrete based or slabbed paving and it is the customer responsibility that an adequate base is laid before install.
Your existing concrete base or slabbed paving would act as your floor.
Installation of Shed and Timber Floor
A fully pressure impregnated tongue & groove floor will be supplied. The floor consists of boards and bearers. The shed will be anchored down to the floorboard.
You will still require a suitable base for the timber floor to be placed upon such as concrete or slabbed paving that needs to be flat and level.
