How to Install a Ground Screw Foundation in Just a Single Day

Installing a Gorilla Base ground screw foundation is a quick and efficient process that can often be completed in just a single day, depending on the size of the project. This speed is one of the main advantages over traditional concrete bases.

Measuring and setting out

Start by measuring and marking the layout of your garden building. Use string lines and corner markers to ensure accuracy. Once you’ve determined the placement of each ground screw, it’s time to start driving them into the ground. You’ll need a handheld electric ground screw driver or a professional installer to complete this step.

Each ground screw is installed individually, and because there’s no drying time like with concrete, the base is ready for use immediately. This means your shed, studio, or garden room can be built the very same day.

Installation whatever the weather

Ground screws also work well in poor weather and on uneven terrain, avoiding common delays with concrete pouring. Whether you’re installing a small summerhouse or a large garden office, ground screws make fast work of the foundation—getting you from planning to building faster than ever.
