Site Preparation

1. All portable Sturdi-Bilt Storage Barns and Gazebos come with treated foundation runners. The typically flat and gently sloped yards of Kansas with well established turf are satisfactory without any additional landscaping to many homeowners needing basic lawn and garden tool storage. This is especially true for smaller to mid-size buildings (up to 200 sq. ft.) 

2. Sometimes a concrete floor and foundation are desired or required. The portable structure can be placed/built on the slab or the wood floor can be deleted and the building built on the site like a garage. If you wish for referrals, we can supply a list of concrete contractors upon request.  When you place your order, we will supply a concrete plan with anchor bolt and sizing details. 

3. A third and intermediate plan is to remove 3-4" of sod, then fill back in with crushed limestone, making sure the entire area of limestone is level. It is recommended that the rock base be 12" larger on all four sides and bounded by treated timbers.
