Since the Phillips family started in groundworks back in 1970, we have installed hundreds of foundations for sheds, garden rooms, and hot tubs across Dorset and Hampshire.
In recent years, the demand for precision-engineered, high-quality garden bases has skyrocketed. Because Sunset Developments is now focusing heavily on our core property development projects, we wanted to ensure our groundworks customers still received the dedicated, specialist attention they deserve.
That is why we are thrilled to announce the launch of our new sister company: JustBases.
What is JustBases?
JustBases is a dedicated, highly specialised division of our family business, created to do one thing and do it perfectly: build rock-solid foundations for your garden buildings.
If you are a past Sunset Developments customer looking to get a base installed for a new garden project, the exact same experienced team is still here to help you, just under a new name!
What Types of Bases Do We Install?
Over at JustBases, we have refined our services to handle any ground condition—from the heavy clay of Verwood to the sloping gardens of Parkstone. We install:
Poured Concrete Bases: Steel-reinforced foundations perfect for heavy garden offices, garages, and swim spas.
Raised Timber Frames: A smart, mess-free solution for sloping ground or gardens with protected tree roots (TPOs).
Slabbed Paving Bases: Neat, permeable platforms ideal for greenhouses, summerhouses, and potting sheds.
Ground Screw Installations: A modern, eco-friendly, and concrete-free alternative for fast, low-impact foundation building.
Whether you need a simple 6×4 shed base, a complex foundation for a multi-room log cabin, or a heavy-duty pad capable of holding a 2-tonne hot tub, JustBases has the exact engineering solution for your site.
The Same Family, The Same Guarantee
While the brand name is new, our 50-year family heritage and core values remain exactly the same.
When you hire JustBases, you are still getting Craig Phillips and the team. You will still receive our trademark tidy service, our fixed-price quotes, and most importantly, our rock-solid 10-year guarantee on all materials and labour.
