What is the delivery lead time?
This can vary depending on the time of year, currently the lead time is around 4 weeks.
What is included in the price?
All prices include delivery, installation, VAT and a 10 year manufacturer’s warranty.
What base do i need for my concrete garage?
You will need a 10cm (4”) thick, flat, level concrete base, 15cm (6”) longer and 15cm wider than the garage size. We recommend that your base is slightly higher than the surrounding area in order to help keep your garage dry. Slabs, Tarmac or Block Paving are not suitable bases for a concrete garage.
Are the garage dimensions internal or external?
The dimensions given are external to the outside of the concrete panels. When measuring up, please allow for roof overhang and guttering. Internal garage dimensions are 6" (15cm) less than external.
What kind of access do i need for delivery of my building?
As most garage bases have vehicular access leading to them, we can gain access to the base using a Moffett forklift truck to deliver your garage.
What guarantee do i get with my building?
The concrete garages carry a 10 year structural guarantee. The up & over doors, personnel doors and electric door openers have a 2 year guarantee.
Do i need planning permission?
Very occasionally, planning permission is required. The Planning department of your local authority should be able to help you further with this; it may be worth looking on their website.
What are the payment terms for concrete garages?
We take a 20% deposit if the garage is ordered in person at our premises or over the phone. The balance is payable 14 days prior to installation. If ordered on-line please pay in full.
Can you do made to measure buildings?
Yes we can, within reason, as long as the garage is square or rectangular. If you require an 11’ x 17’6” for example, please refer to the next standard size up – 12’6” x 18’3” for pricing. We cannot supply garages with walls that taper from front to back or that do not have 90 degree corners.
What size vehicle will my shed be delivered on?
Your garage will be delivered on a large rigid truck or an articulated lorry. This will be unloaded by a Moffett forklift.
