lord_seagrave Posted June 19, 2018 Report Share Posted June 19, 2018 Hi chaps, Looking for a 7’x7’ corner shed with double doors. Wickes has got one by “Mercia” at £450, and one by “Shires” at £650. Other than an extra window, is the Shires worth the extra money? It’s difficult to see what the difference is. What say you? Should I be looking somewhere else? I don’t want to pay a fortune, but I also don’t want to buy cheap and buy twice. LS PS: if you’ve got any tips for how to simply increase the stability/durability/comfort/security of said shed, I’m all ears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clad it in two course of breeze block with cavity insulation and a tiled roof! my shed is as rigid as government policy unfortunately and only some serious effort would improve it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferguson_tom Posted June 20, 2018 Report Share Posted June 20, 2018 Have a look at Dunster house I have had a few things off them over the last few years and always found them very good quality and go together well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itchy trigger Posted June 20, 2018 Report Share Posted June 20, 2018 got my kennel from these people, worth a browse, very happy with the quality, lads who delivered and erected were excellent http://gardenpleasure.co.uk/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henry d Posted June 21, 2018 Report Share Posted June 21, 2018 Aren`t you handy with some tools? I made a shed to fit my garden as it has an acute angle at one corner and an off the shelf shed would have wasted the space. Mine cost @ £7-800 iirc and was 5m x 3m, osb for the two walls that face the fence and overlap for the rest, the only thing I bought manufactured was the door. I`m not a joiner and it took me 4 days or so with my wife helping lift n shift a few times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lord_seagrave Posted June 21, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2018 Thanks chaps - been a bit overwhelmed with offers of help on DM! Cheers for the various discount codes and whatnot too. Very much appreciated. I’ll keep you posted - doubtless one or two other noddy questions to follow... LS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Konnie Posted June 21, 2018 Report Share Posted June 21, 2018 I Put a 7'x7' corner one up earlier this summer, it's ok odd over nail but went together ok, tight on the felt ration but doable. (shire) Have a look at shire garden buildings Sutton bridge, these are the manufacturer, your model could be cheaper direct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
