Title: shed base?
Post by: lowennamoyle on April 05, 2011, 17:44

hey

I have a new she on the way for my new allotment, which i am really excited about.

However, as this is an allotment, i am having a panic about a base for the shed to go onto, any ideas?

I am thinking pallets... must be cheap  ::)

Paving slabs?

Definately NOT pallets for the reason shown and the fact that pallets under a shed make an ideal home for rats.  I used lengths of 3x3 pressure treated wood and built a frame to stand the shed on.   :)
