A Smart Investment That Protects Your Shed for Years

A shed is only as good as what it sits on. A concrete shed pad from HillCo Concrete gives your shed or outbuilding a level, dry base that helps protect it from rot, shifting, and pests. We build shed pads throughout the Austin metro and Texas Hill Country.

Spending a little more on a solid pad now can save you from costly repairs later. It’s one of the simplest ways to get more life out of your shed.

Why a Concrete Shed Pad Pays Off

  • Prevents Rot – Keeps the shed floor up and away from wet ground.
  • Stays Level – Doors keep opening and closing smoothly when the base doesn’t shift.
  • Keeps Pests Out – A solid base makes it harder for critters to move in underneath.
  • Handles Heavy Storage – Mowers, tools, and equipment won’t sink into the floor.
  • Adds Lasting Value – A permanent base is a long-term upgrade to your property.

How We Build Shed Pads

  • Measure and Plan – We size the pad to fit your shed with a little room around the edges.
  • Level the Ground – We grade the site and compact the sub-base so it won’t settle.
  • Form and Pour – We set square forms and pour after Chris checks the mix and moisture.
  • Finish – We finish the surface smooth and level for your shed.
  • Cure – We let you know when the pad is ready for your shed to be set.

Why Choose HillCo Concrete for Your Shed Pad

  • Good Value, No Shortcuts – Quality materials and proper prep on even the smallest job.
  • Veteran Know-How – Crews averaging 20 years mean a square, level pad.
  • Quick Scheduling – Our experience lets us fit projects in without rushing the work.
  • Responsive Service – We stand behind our work and stay easy to reach.

Shed Pad FAQs

Is concrete better than gravel for a shed?

Gravel can work for small, light sheds. Concrete offers a more solid, level, and permanent base, especially for larger sheds or heavy storage.

How much bigger than my shed should the pad be?

Many people go a few inches larger on each side. We’ll help you choose a size that works for your shed and your yard.

Can you pour a pad on a sloped yard?

Yes. We can grade the area and form the pad so it sits level even when the ground does not.

Can a shed pad be used for a workshop?

Yes. Let us know how you’ll use it, and we will plan the thickness and base to match.
