Every location has its own quirks when it comes to ground conditions, and Edmonton is no different.
Many properties in parts of Edmonton sit on clay-heavy soil, which expands and contracts depending on how much moisture is in the ground.
If a concrete base is poured directly onto soil without the correct preparation underneath, that natural ground movement can eventually cause the slab to shift or settle unevenly.
We deal with a lot garden levelling which is common locally, Some Edmonton gardens have slight slopes or uneven ground from previous concrete work, so preparing the ground for the base is essential.
Installing a reliable concrete base starts with our teams preparation before we even begin pouring any concrete.
We begin by assessing the garden space and identifying the ground conditions so the slab is built on a stable foundation.
We then excavate the area to the correct depth, a compacted sub-base is installed, and edge forms are set so the final slab finishes level and square.
Only once the base preparation is complete do we pour and level the concrete.
This process ensures the finished base sits properly on the ground underneath it. That preparation is also what helps prevent future movement or cracking.
For many Edmonton installations the work itself can often be completed within a day once the site preparation is ready. The exact timing depends on factors such as base size, ground preparation required and access to the garden.
Larger bases or sites that require more excavation may take longer, but the process is always planned so the installation runs efficiently and the concrete is poured correctly.
While some smaller sheds can sit on alternative bases, a concrete base provides the most stable and durable option, especially for larger sheds or log cabins.
Clay soil can expand and contract depending on moisture levels. Proper sub-base preparation underneath the concrete helps prevent movement caused by these changes.
The base is normally slightly larger than the shed footprint to ensure full support across the structure.
Yes. Many Edmonton gardens are compact, particularly with terraced homes, so installations are often planned around restricted access and tighter spaces.
