How i built my shed part 1 reuploadined due to a editing problem.. This clip shows how i set out and lay a concrete block base for a wooden shed, summerhouse or playhouse.. Place the block firmly in the bed of mortar and continue working until approximately 4 feet of blocks have been laid on each side of the corner block. use a mason's level to check the block wall for level and plumb. use a rubber mallet to lightly adjust any blocks before the mortar sets. work until the first course of concrete blocks is laid..
Well the ground for my shed base needed leveling slightly, did that with a spade. then i used rows of breeze blocks which i blagged from a building site. used a spirit level to fine tune then bunged the shed up. it's been there 13 years now. cost was some of my time and the cost of the shed. there is no need for a concrete base.. Hi, i plan to build a small shed in my garden just to store things like lawnmowers, shears and fishing gear in. i plan to build it using just the 4 inch lightweight breeze blocks as i have before, along with a flat sloping roof..
