Locate your shed to avoid water pooling issues — Great Wakering
Great Wakering should be assessed for surface water flow before fixing the shed position, and the town name appears here for identification. Walk the garden during or after rain to note collection points and plan the shed so its base sits above likely drainage lines. Incorporate a graded fall away from the structure, install perimeter drainage channels if needed, and avoid siting downpipes to discharge near the base. Choose a compact, raised base with a permeable bedding layer to keep timber clear of damp and specify corrosion-resistant fixings where contact with moisture is probable. For metal sheds buyers, confirm the exact specification and delivery postcode before purchasing.
These are general considerations, not an assessment of an individual property. Sheds Warehouse confirms product-specific availability using your postcode.

Delivery, installation and preparation
Delivery options vary by product and postcode. Installation is available on selected garden buildings. Always check the product's base requirements before ordering and make sure there is suitable access to the delivery or installation area.
How do I choose the right size?
Measure the usable garden area and allow space for access, doors, roof overhangs and maintenance. It is usually better to allow some spare internal storage space rather than buying to the exact minimum.
Can installation be arranged?
Installation is available on selected buildings. Availability depends on the product, postcode and base conditions, so our team will confirm the details before the order proceeds.
Do I need a base?
Yes. Every shed or garden building should stand on a firm, level and well-drained base. The base is the foundation underneath the building; it is different from the internal floor supplied with some sheds. Common options include concrete, paving slabs, timber frames and plastic base systems. Shop shed bases →
Do I need planning permission?
Many garden buildings in England can be installed under permitted development rights, subject to height, position and coverage limits. A key rule is that a building within 2 metres of a boundary is generally limited to 2.5 metres overall height. Listed buildings, flats and some restricted or designated properties need extra checks.
