Shed Foundation Installation Winnipeg

Built Right From the Ground Up

Your shed is only as strong as the base it rests on. Choosing the wrong type of foundation—or skipping one entirely—can result in long-term structural issues, water pooling, or premature wear. Our team handles every aspect of the installation, from ground prep to final leveling, ensuring your shed stays secure and aligned year-round.

We install foundations for:

• Garden sheds

• Storage units

• Workshops

• Plastic, metal, and wooden sheds

• Residential and light commercial structures

Every foundation is custom-built to suit your specific shed type, ground conditions, and intended use.

Shed Base Installation Options

We offer several durable and cost-effective shed foundation solutions depending on your needs and budget.

Gravel Shed Pad Installation

Gravel is one of the most requested shed base options for Winnipeg homeowners. It’s an affordable choice that allows excellent drainage, helps prevent moisture buildup, and distributes weight evenly. Our process includes:

• Clearing and leveling the area

• Installing a pressure-treated border (if needed)

• Adding, spreading, and compacting multiple gravel layers

• Optional weed barrier and anchoring system

Gravel bases are especially popular for wooden or plastic sheds and are low-maintenance year after year.

Concrete Shed Base Installation

Concrete is the most permanent and durable foundation option. It’s perfect for sheds that hold heavy equipment, tools, or machinery. We take care of:

• Soil excavation

• Rebar or mesh reinforcement (if needed)

• Pouring and finishing the slab

• Optional footings and frost protection

This is the ideal choice for those who want a solid, level surface that requires minimal upkeep and is built to last decades.

Plastic Shed Base Installation

Plastic shed bases are modular, easy to install, and a great option for small sheds. These bases allow for natural airflow and water drainage, reducing the risk of rot or mildew under the shed. They’re quick to install and can be anchored securely, making them a good option for temporary or lightweight structures.
