Garden sheds are a critical component of any practical garden space. They can provide storage for cumbersome garden tools, as well as for other equipment. A generous garden shed might even offer enough room for plant potting or a general workshop. Additionally, a substantial shed could be utilised as an inside seating area. Garden sheds are available in a huge selection of sizes and can be specified to your exact needs, providing you full control over the number and placement of windows, type, size and location of door, and style of roof. Garden sheds generally are available in one of three materials. Wooden sheds are the typical style 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 remain extremely popular, although they will require maintenance by retreating or staining the wood to preserve the life of the shed. Garden sheds are also made of metal, which is very durable and therefore great 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 durable than might be expected. When considering a garden shed, it's important to ensure that you select one that will fit in your garden space. Garden sheds will need to be located on a flat area, and will need a base to be built as a foundation. This base could be made from either concrete, paving, gravel or a floating timber base, but will need to be the right size for your shed and capable of supporting 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

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.
Yes, it is possible to insulate a shed. You might want to do this if you’re planning on working in it during the winter.
