Local garden base specialist
Prepared properly before the building goes up
St Austell projects can range from town gardens to village plots and coastal properties towards Mevagissey or Fowey. The ground, access and exposure can change quickly, so each base needs to be assessed before a price is confirmed.
A properly built base helps the building last longer and makes assembly easier. Ground screws are often useful when a garden has a fall, awkward access or a homeowner wants to avoid the disruption of concrete.
