Site Works & Foundations in Nelson & Tasman

Site preparation for shed build with framing and base work
Groundwork underway for shed construction in Tasman

Practical site preparation, earthworks, and concrete for sheds, cabins, and rural building projects.

Before any shed or cabin is built, the site needs to be prepared properly.

ShedPros provides site works across Nelson and Tasman to support shed, cabin, and rural building projects. From site preparation and earthworks through to concrete foundations, Nathan oversees the process to make sure everything is set up correctly from the start.

Site Preparation & Earthworks

We organise and manage the groundwork needed to get your project underway.

This can include:

  • Site clearing and preparation

  • Excavation and levelling

  • Trenching

  • Building platform preparation

  • Basic drainage work

Where specialist machinery or operators are required, trusted contractors are brought in and managed as part of the project.

Concrete Foundations

We provide concrete foundations for sheds, cabins, and rural building projects.

This includes:

  • Shed pads

  • Cabin foundations

  • Concrete slabs for rural buildings

Concrete work is carried out with the right contractors involved, while Nathan oversees the process to ensure it aligns with the build and the site requirements.

Drainage & Ground Preparation

Basic drainage can be included as part of site preparation where needed.

For more involved drainage requirements, specialist contractors can be brought in and managed as part of the wider project.

This helps keep the build process coordinated and ensures the site is prepared properly before construction begins.

Coordinated as Part of the Build

One point of contact from groundwork through to construction.

Site works are often one part of a larger shed or cabin build.

By managing the groundwork as part of the overall project, ShedPros helps keep everything aligned — from levels and layout through to concrete and final construction.

That makes the process simpler and helps avoid a disconnect between the site preparation and the build itself.

Built for Rural & Lifestyle Properties

Many projects are on rural land and lifestyle blocks where access, levels, and site conditions vary.

Based in Richmond, ShedPros works across Nelson, Tasman, Motueka, and surrounding areas, preparing sites for practical buildings that are designed to suit the property.

How It Works

We keep the process straightforward, from first conversation through to the finished build.

1. Talk through your project

We start with a conversation about the building, the site, and what groundwork may be needed.

2. Site assess and planning

We look at access, levels, and any preparation needed before the build begins.

3. Organise the groundwork

Earthworks, drainage, and concrete are arranged as required, with the right contractors involved where needed.

4. Ready for construction

Once the site is prepared, the build can move ahead on a solid foundation.
