Can
my base be - Paving slabs? - Block paving? - Tarmac?
No, it must be concrete. A typical garage will weigh from
3 - 4 tons, and any building is only as good as its foundations.
The base should be designed to suit local soil conditions.
Consult your local Compton agent or builder (see
what size base?). |

My
existing garage (timber, corrugated iron, Timber framed
asbestos) didn't have a concrete base, so why do I need
one for your garage?
Same
as above - these garages are nowhere near as heavy as
our garages, and so you could get away with lighter foundations.
For a concrete garage, a concrete base, designed to suit
local soil conditions, is essential. It needs to be flat
and level as the panels we use are rectangular, and cannot
be bent to fit a base out of level!
