Sheds

Garden sheds are a critical element of any practical garden space. They can provide storage for heavy garden tools, as well as for other equipment. A generous garden shed could offer enough room for plant potting or a general workshop. Alternatively, a large shed could be used as an inside seating area. Garden sheds are available in an enormous variety of sizes and can be specified to your particular requirements, giving you full control over the number and placement of windows, type, size and location of door, and design of roof.Garden sheds generally are available in one of three materials. Wooden sheds are the classic style and can be integrated well into any garden creating a natural look, particularly if the wood used for the shed is matched to adjacent fences. Wooden sheds remain very popular, although they will demand maintenance by retreating or staining the wood to protect the life of the shed. Garden sheds are also manufactured from metal, which is very durable and therefore great for storage of tools and other equipment. Metal sheds also require almost no maintenance. The final material for garden sheds is plastic, which in modern examples is a lot more resilient than might be expected.When considering a garden shed, it’s essential to make sure that you choose one which will fit in your garden space. Garden sheds should be located on a flat area, and will need a base to be built as a foundation. This base could be made from either concrete, paving, gravel or a floating timber base, but will need to be the right size for your shed and able to support the weight of your shed when loaded.
