Sheds & Storage FAQs

  • What size storage shed do I need for my garden?
    The right size depends on your storage needs and the available space in your garden. If you only need to store small tools, a compact 6x8 shed may suffice. For larger equipment, consider a 10x12 or bigger.

    Installing a shed on uneven ground requires a sturdy foundation. You can level the ground with gravel or concrete, ensuring stability for your shed.

    Regular cleaning and rust prevention are key. Apply rust-resistant paint and ensure good ventilation to avoid condensation inside the shed.
