Shed Base Options for Trentvale Metal Sheds
All Trentvale Metal Sheds are advised to be Installed on a hard standing surface base area. A damp proof membrane (plastic sheet material) should be placed prior to installing your shed/base to limit condensation.
1. Existing Concrete Base or Slabbed Surface
All sheds should be anchored to a flat and level concrete surface with a damp proof membrane (not supplied).
All sheds must be anchored to the concrete base. Anchor Screws are available to purchase at an additional charge.
2. Timber Floor Option (Installation only option)
A Timber Floor Kit consists of a pressure treated timber base frame and pre-cut boards. The base frame is placed on top of the damp proof membrane (not supplied).
The boards then complete the base, also providing a timber floor for the shed. A Timber Floor Kit can be supplied at an additional charge and our installers will build it accordingly.
Timber Floors are NOT available for customers who don’t take out our installation service.
3. EcoBase Fastfit Base Kit (Installation only option)
A EcoBase Fastfit Base Kit consists of strong, recycled plastic grids that click together and supplied with a sheet of weed resistant membrane.
The shed is then anchored to the base kit.
Rainwater drains through the grid cavities keeping the floor grid and ventilated.
ECOBASE FastFit Base Kits are NOT available for customers who don’t take out our installation service.
4. Metal Foundation Grid (Available with or without installation)
All steel sheds must be anchored to a firm foundation to protect against wind damage. A foundation kit forms a steel grid over your damp-proof membrane, allowing you either to fill with concrete or cover with marine ply to create an internal floor. (Plywood or Marine Ply is NOT SUPPLIED).
METAL FOUNDATION GRIDS are available for customers who do or don’t take our installation service.
By purchasing the metal foundation grid is an addition to the shed that is ordered and cant be returned as a sperate item if not required after delivery.
