Before installation · Step 2

Ground preparation and base

A properly prepared base helps your sauna sit level, remain stable and perform as intended. We can coordinate the groundworks and finish the surrounding space to complement your garden.

Every site is different. We start by reviewing the location, ground conditions, access and the sauna's requirements, then agree a practical preparation and finishing plan before work begins.

1. Site assessment & access

Check the proposed position, delivery route, working space, existing levels and any obstacles. Confirm the sauna footprint and access requirements before setting out.

2. Clear, set out & excavate

Prepare the work area, remove unsuitable surface material where needed and excavate to the agreed depth. Protect nearby planting, boundaries and existing services.

3. Sub-base, levels & drainage

Install and compact a suitable sub-base, establish accurate levels and consider surface-water run-off so water does not collect around the sauna or its base.

4. Foundation & finishing

Construct the agreed foundation or support system, allow materials to cure or settle as required, then complete the surrounding surface, edges and landscaping.

Ground preparation & finishing options

Explore the different solutions available. Each option is discussed against your garden, ground conditions, sauna model and preferred finish.

Prepared concrete slab foundation for an outdoor sauna

Concrete Slab

A strong, stable and level foundation. The slab specification and reinforcement, where required, are selected to suit the site and sauna load.

Outdoor sauna set on natural timber decking

Timber Decking

A warm, natural-looking finish that creates an inviting platform and usable space around the sauna. Timber support and ventilation are planned for outdoor conditions.

Modern composite decking around an outdoor sauna

Composite Decking

A modern, durable and low-maintenance option, available in a range of colours and finishes to complement the sauna and garden.

Outdoor porcelain tiles and paving slabs around a sauna

Outdoor Tiles / Paving Slabs

An attractive, practical finish with clean lines and a choice of formats and textures. The laying base and falls are planned for outdoor use and drainage.

Decorative gravel, stones and stepping pads beside an outdoor sauna

Decorative Gravel / Decorative Stone

Add texture and contrast with decorative aggregates, stone borders and stepping pads. Suitable edging and ground preparation help keep the finish neat.

Bespoke landscaped garden surrounding an outdoor sauna

Bespoke Landscaping

Custom-designed surroundings tailored to your space, from paths and planting to retaining details, lighting and integrated seating.

The correct foundation depends on the sauna manufacturer's requirements, ground conditions, drainage and site layout. Final specifications and scope are confirmed following a site assessment. Any electrical work is arranged with appropriately qualified specialists.

Beyond the standard range

Make your sauna your own.

Our five standard models are the starting point. Depending on the design and supplier availability, we can explore larger formats, alternative glazing, mirrored finishes and additional spaces.

The wider sauna gallery includes examples of different sizes, finishes and layouts. These images are design inspiration and custom variations — they are not additional standard models. Tell us what you have in mind and we will check what can be made for your chosen sauna.

Alternative sizes

Looking for more room? Ask about larger footprints or different dimensions to suit your garden, subject to the chosen design and manufacturer.

Glass & mirrored finishes

Explore different front and side glazing options, including panoramic glass or a mirrored look, where available for your selected model.

Changing rooms & porches

Consider a separate changing area, entrance porch or additional sheltered space as part of the overall sauna layout.

Interior layout

Discuss bench arrangements, seating and heater positioning so the interior works for the way you plan to use your sauna.

Terraces & platforms

Bring the sauna together with a timber or composite deck, paving, steps or a finished outdoor space around the installation.

Bespoke combinations

Combine ideas to create a sauna space that suits your garden, available access, preferred finish and budget.

Explore custom design ideas

Custom features are subject to supplier confirmation, model compatibility, dimensions, site conditions and any required installation clearances. We will confirm the available specification before quoting.
