Garden sheds are an essential element of any useful garden space. They provide storage for bulky garden tools, as well as for other tools. A sizeable shed might even provide enough room for plant potting or a general workshop. Alternatively, a sizeable shed could be used as an indoor sitting area. Garden sheds come in a huge selection of sizes and can be specified to your precise requirements, giving you complete control over the amount and placement of windows, type, size and location of door, and style of roof. Garden sheds typically come in one of three materials. Wooden sheds are the traditional design and can be integrated well into any garden creating a natural look, particularly if the wood used for the shed is matched to adjoining fences. Wooden sheds remain very popular, although they will require maintenance by retreating or staining the wood to protect the life of the shed. Garden sheds are also constructed from metal, which is very durable and therefore ideal 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 contemplating a garden shed, it's vital to make sure that you choose one that will fit in your garden space. Garden sheds should be placed on a flat area, and will need a base to be built as a foundation. This base could be produced from either concrete, paving, gravel or a floating timber base, but will have to be the right size for your shed and able to support the weight of your shed when loaded.
The typical cost of Garden shed is £600. Costs vary based on the materials and the organisation selected. The upper price range can be as high as £690. The material costs are typically around £150

Battersea is a residential district of south London in the London Borough of Wandsworth. It's 2.9 miles south west of Charing Cross. The district has one of southwest London’s primary parks, Battersea Park.
In 2001, Battersea had a citizenry of 75,651, but by 2011 the number stood at 73,345, noting a slight reduction. There's a substantial section of public housing estates built during the mid-20th century, virtually all situated north of the key railway lines from Fairfield to Queenstown. There are four considerably significant estates; Surrey Lane Estate to the north, Doddington and Rollo Estate, Patmore Estate towards the east and also the Winstanley Estate, that is recognised to be the birthplace of the garage collective So Solid Crew.
There are a variety of notable landmarks in Battersea, one of which is the Battersea Dogs and Cats Home. Prior to that, the Temporary Home for Lost and Starving Dogs was based in Battersea following moving from Holloway in 1871. Other landmarks include the New Covent Garden Market, a major vegetable and fruit wholesale market place, along with the now disused Battersea Power Station which was built between 1929 and 1939. There have already been lots of redevelopment projects since the 1980s to transform the station into an entertainment and commercial centre, but up to now all attempts failed.

Yes, your shed does need a base. This is to give it a solid, level foundation. Open soil will not help with the longevity of the shed itself or the contents within. The best materials to use to make your shed base are concrete, natural stone or wood.
Try to put your shed in open space, away from trees, bushes and other buildings. This will help to protect it from falling branches and sap. It will also mean that you can access all sides of the shed for repair and maintenance purposes. Make sure you take a look at garden shed planning rules before you pick a final spot for your shed.
We can help you get more garden shed work with our qualified job leads and boost your business.
