Sheds

Garden sheds are a vital component of any functional garden space. They provide storage for cumbersome garden tools, as well as for other equipment. A substantial garden shed could even offer enough room for plant potting or a general workshop. Additionally, a substantial shed could be utilised as an indoor sitting area. Garden sheds are available in a large array of sizes and can be specified to your exact needs, providing you with total control over the amount and placement of windows, type, size and location of door, and design of roof.Garden sheds commonly come in one of three materials. Wooden sheds are the classic design and can be integrated well into any garden creating a natural look, especially if the wood used for the shed is matched to neighbouring fences. Wooden sheds are still very popular, although they will require maintenance by retreating or staining the wood to protect the life of the shed. Garden sheds are also made of metal, which is very durable and therefore ideal for storage of tools and other equipment. Metal sheds also require minimal maintenance. The final material for garden sheds is plastic, which in modern examples is much more resilient than might be expected.When considering a garden shed, it’s essential to make certain you pick one that will fit in your garden space. Garden sheds will need to be located on a level area, and will require a base to be built as a foundation. This base could be produced from either concrete, paving, gravel or a floating wooden base, but will need to be the right size for your shed and able to support the weight of your shed when loaded.
