The foundation work that comes before any garden room goes up — matched to your garden's ground conditions.
Bases, Groundworks & Installation in Altrincham
Altrincham customers looking for bases, groundworks & installation turn to Manchester Garden Rooms. The right base depends on the ground, not the building. A level, well-drained garden with stable subsoil is generally suited to a concrete pad or raft base, poured and left to cure before the frame goes up. A sloping garden, one close to established trees (whose roots can affect ground moisture), or a plot with poor or variable ground conditions is often better suited to screw piles — steel posts wound into the ground to a calculated depth, which avoid a large concrete pour, cause less disruption to the garden, and are easier to correct if a survey reveals unexpected ground conditions partway through. A site visit and ground assessment is the way to confirm which approach is right before any groundworks begin. Altrincham mixes tight Victorian terraces near the town centre with more generous inter-war plots further out, so the access survey does real work here — a garden room bound for a central terrace needs the same side-return check as one destined for a wider Hale Road semi. Ground across the town is generally flat, sitting on the Bollin/Mersey lowland.
