Sheds are available in various types, including wooden, metal, and plastic. Each type has its benefits: wooden sheds offer a classic look, metal sheds provide durability, and plastic sheds require low maintenance. Consider your climate and intended use to choose the best material for your needs.
The right shed size depends on your storage needs and garden space. Sheds range from small (6″×4″) to large (12″×8″). Evaluate what you plan to store and measure your available space to ensure a comfortable fit without overwhelming your garden.
Shed roofs come in styles like apex, pent, and flat. Apex roofs offer more headroom and traditional looks, while pent roofs provide modern aesthetics and suit smaller spaces. Flat roofs are cost-effective and simple. Choose based on personal preference and garden style.
Planning permission is generally not required for small sheds under 15 square metres. However, rules vary by location. We recommend checking with your local council for specific regulations to avoid any issues after installation.
Shed maintenance involves regular cleaning, treating wood against rot, checking for leaks, and ensuring proper ventilation. Metal sheds need rust prevention, while plastic ones require occasional washing. Regular upkeep extends the life of your shed and keeps it looking good.
Sheds can be customised with windows, shelving, insulation, and security features like locks or alarms. These additions enhance functionality and security but may increase costs. Assess your requirements before customising to ensure you get the most value from your investment.
