If you’re in the market for a garden shed, then use the following guide to help you buy the best one for your needs.
How to choose the best garden shed for your garden
These small buildings that are actually an extension of your home are so versatile. They’re available in so many shapes, colours, styles and sizes, so you are almost guaranteed of finding the perfect one to suit your needs best, whether you want to use it as an office, for storing garden tools, or anything else that grabs your imagination. Some of the sheds available are tool sheds, firewood storage sheds, lean-to sheds, outdoor garden room, small corner sheds, or Japanese-style sheds that are great for relaxing in after a long and tiring day.
What material should I choose for my shed?
The answer to this question comes down to your personal preference. You can have a shed built from scratch or build one from a pre-fab shed kit. The bottom line is that you must be happy with the end result irrespective of what material you decide to use.
The material choices you have are:
Timber
- Wooden shed – this is a traditional material for a garden shed and if built from the right type of wood, will last for many years. Also, if you build a wooden shed from scratch, you can make it whatever size and style you want to.
- Post and beam – these are extremely traditional in style and can be used for absolutely anything. They look like mini Tudor-style homes and the manner in which they are built means that you can make it a double-storey too, which will be a great talking point in your garden!
Metal
Pent and gable metal sheds are the two types that you can buy or build yourself and just like wooden sheds, can be built to any style or shape that suits your needs, from small sheds, to big garage-like buildings.
Plastic
Rather more like a garden cupboard than a real shed, plastic sheds are great for storing small items like garden tools, bicycles, and other similar items.
Sometimes you need a little bit of extra space to store garden tools outdoor furniture or even things in your home that can be stored outside to give you extra storage space inside. A garden shed is just the thing to achieve this. Visit The Garden Centre Guide and you will find the shed to suit your needs perfectly, among the many garden buildings offered by garden centres throughout the UK, on their site.
