Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Durabase modular foundation system? +
Durabase is a steel-framed, modular foundation system designed for conservatories, orangeries, and extensions. It replaces the need for a traditional poured concrete base, using prefabricated panels that arrive ready to assemble. The system includes a brick skirt to match your home's appearance and meets UK Building Regulations.
Is Durabase better than a traditional concrete base? +
For conservatories and extensions, Durabase offers several advantages: installation in 1–2 days versus 5–10 days for concrete, no deep excavation required, and a fully insulated floor included as standard. However, for heavy structures like garages or large outbuildings, a traditional concrete base remains the preferred option.
Does Durabase meet UK Building Regulations? +
Yes. Durabase modular foundation systems are fully approved under UK Building Regulations, including compliance with thermal and structural requirements. The system comes with a 25-year manufacturer's guarantee and is widely accepted by building inspectors across England and Wales.
How long does Durabase installation take? +
A typical Durabase installation can be completed in one to two days, depending on the size and complexity of the project. This is significantly faster than a poured concrete base which requires multiple visits and curing time. The site is ready for the conservatory or extension to be fitted almost immediately after installation.
