LeoBase – The cost of a laid LeoBase is less than £5 – per square foot when laid on roughly level hard earth or stone. Major slopes should be eliminated beforehand (Details)

Concrete – Most base layers charge between £5 to £10 per square foot. We are not aware of any company that lays even a small shed base for less than £500 – which for an 8′ x 6′ (48sqft) is more than £10 (sqft)

Our operatives will take the rough land and remove the top soil to provide a fairly level base for the construction of the Leobase.

It is the land owners responsibility to know the drainage of the land and make adequate adjustments to ensure rain water can flow away from under the base so there no pooling under the base.

If this happens it can increase the water in the air which causes condensation in the building above.

LeoBase – Little or no mess. Surplus topsoil can be distributed in the garden.

Concrete – Mess from material removal. Concrete mixed on site usually leaves residue, and form barrowing to site.

LeoBase – Can be laid on the same day as the building is erected.

Concrete – Needs to be left at least a week before being worked on and moisture, causing condensation will effect the interior of the building for weeks afterwards.

LeoBase – Can be laid in low temperatures (zero or below) and even in very light rain.

Concrete – Cannot be laid in rain or low temperatures.

LeoBase – Cannot crack.

Concrete – Often cracks, even shortly after laying or with time as ground settles.

LeoBase – Can be re-levelled at any time needing just a screwdrive and a spanner. One Section, controlling the corners of four plates takes about one minute.

Concrete – Cannot be re-levelled if slab cracks or settles.

LeoBase – Clean, Dust-Free epoxy paint, can be washed, wiped, swept, polished.

Concrete – Raw conrete which will shed dust when swept, needs painting or tiling for a clean finish.

LeoBase – Gives off zero dampness. Does not hold dampness if ground is flooded.

Concrete – Concrete holds dampness and passes it to the interior of the building.

LeoBase – The flat floor permits a perfect wall panel to base seal which is waterproof.

Concrete – If the concrete base is not flat and smooth under the wall panels then the uPVC DCM cannot be used and a cement filet will be placed on the inside which will crack away in severely cold weather losing the seal.

LeoBase – As the floor holds no moisture, condensation levels are considerably reduced not only from new but on a continuing basis.

Concrete – A newly laid floor will have tens if not hundreds of litres of water from the mix which has to come out. This causes severe condensation and if the base does not have a good DCM {Damp Course Membrane) laid under concrete slab from the outset then dampness will keep coming through from the subsoil.

LeoBase – Can be re-levelled quickly and easily at any time. It takes a screwdriver and a spanner and each spot to be re-velled takes about a minute.

Concrete – Cannot be re-levelled.

LeoBase – Panels are easily lifted to install cables and/or pipes at any time.

Concrete – Floor has to be jack-hammered to cut channels for cables and pipes, then made good afterwards. Note easy, not clean and not cheap.

LeoBase – The building and base can be dismantled and re-located to another area of the property or even moved to another location completely.

Concrete – The building can be dismantled but the base would need to be broken up.

LeoBase – Ten Year Warranty on components. Warranty covers against the failure of the component not surface oxidation.

Concrete – No Warranty given that we are aware of.
