5 Sheds That Won't Break the Bank

Garden sheds and buildings are an important part of any garden, no matter how big or small it is. They are ideal for storing everything from lawnmowers and equipment to outdoor furniture and protecting it from the weather. Garden sheds make excellent tiny workshops; and are the ideal solution for getting your hobbies out of the kitchen.

As a result, garden sheds do not have to be expensive. Therefore, in this blog, we have listed five low-cost options for different needs and garden sizes.

This large garden shed has everything you'd want in a good-sized shed: an apex roof for more headroom, windows for natural light, and double doors for fast and simple access to heavy items of equipment like lawnmowers. We would say that this garden structure is the perfect garden storage shed!

The Apex roofing design enables for windows to be placed on either side, and the timber used has been dip treated, providing short-term protection against deterioration such as rot and decay.

A new feature we have also just recently introduced is the option to provide both an assembly and non-assembly preference with every shed ordered, giving you the choice to either get your hands dirty with shed assembly or leave it all down to us! Once you have ordered your chosen shed and preferred assembly, a member of our team will then contact you regarding delivery and assembly.

If you have any further questions about sheds or would want to talk to someone about any of this information, please call our customer service team at 01472 907051.
