Installations currently have a lead time of up to 28 days. Once your installation questionnaire has been approved, our installation team will be in touch to arrange a date with you. 

Why not let our team of experts take care of installation of your new garden building? All you have to do then is sit back and relax.

The installation service includes: Locating the packed building on site, constructing to manufacturers standards, applying the roof covering, clearing away excess packaging and tidying up.

Please note: A flat level base needs to be in situ before the installation can take place; we will kindly request photo confirmation of your level base, as well as proof of ample access, to ensure our fitters can install your new garden building without a hitch. We have created this handy How to Build a Base guide, to help you choose the best option.

In addition to this, a 60cm clearance around the building is required. This is to ensure our installers have plenty of room to install your new building in its chosen location, to ensure the building has adequate airflow throughout its life and also to allow easy access for annual maintenance. 

When you place your order, you will receive a questionnaire so you can tell us all about your garden so we can ensure it'll be the ideal spot for your new building. Once the level base has been confirmed by our team, your order will be passed onto our delivery and installation team who will arrange a delivery and installation date(s). Our installation teams operate nationally, so it may mean we deliver and install on different days due to team scheduling. Please visit our Installation Service Page for more information.

Please Note: Our installation team are unable to dismantle and dispose of your old garden building.

It is crucial that your new building is constructed upon a strong, sturdy and level base, to ensure a long-lasting build. With a Waltons Portabase, your building will not only be supported by a robust base but it'll be kept level to prevent the wood from twisting and distorting over time.

Made from high quality pressure treated timber, the Portabase provides a raised platform for your building, helping to protect against damp and rot. Our Portabase is quick and easy to install by simply mounting the wooden frame onto the galvanised metal spikes included.

Key Features:

• Pressure treated timber

• Provides added protection and structure to your building

• Raises your building from ground level reducing the risks of rot and damp

Please Note:

• This is not a floor, all of our buildings are supplied with a floor as standard.

• The ground in which you plan to place your Portabase must be a gradient of no more than 65mm across the length or width of the base, clear of obstructions and not saturated with water.

This silicone can be used internally and externally and creates a water tight barrier that prevents water leaking into the joints of your garden building.
