Q: Are wooden sheds waterproof?

All of our garden sheds are water-resistant , however we can't guarantee they are fully waterproof due to the occasional severity of weather conditions in the U.K. Wooden sheds, being made from natural materials, are unpredictable, and we cannot guarantee that wood will not be affected by knots or warping which may allow some water into the shed. Luckily all this can be combatted with optional pressure treatment or by applying your own wood treatment at home. Plastic and metal sheds are more likely to retain their original form.

Q: What's the difference between overlap and tongue and groove?

Overlap cladding is the typical design of panels you see on a garden fence, where each thin horizontal panel overlaps the next, and the panels are nailed together. Because of the necessity for the panels to be laid over one another so they can be nailed in place, it makes each panel slanted. Tongue and groove , a more modern, premium variation on traditional cladding, joins the panels together by a tongue/lip on one slotting into a groove on the next, like LEGO. This means the panels remain vertical. It is a more expensive but more resilient option as it is more watertight, can withstand harsher winds and is usually made out of higher quality wood.

Q: Do garden sheds need a base?

Yes . We supply most of our wooden and plastic sheds with a floor due to the tongue and groove design or overlap design of the panels. If no floor is constructed, the thin walls and potentially thin tongue of the bottom panel of the shed would not fare well against a solid concrete or soft soil surface. Our metal sheds come with foundation kits so that you can install your own floor. Even if you are just using the shed for storage purposes, we always recommend installing a floor.

Q: Can you put a shed on soil?

No . A shed should be raised off the ground by a concrete base or a base made out of another impermeable material, so that water isn't soaked up into the shed (which is especially pertinent on wooden sheds).

Ultimately, it's down to preference. An apex roof is commonly seen as more traditional, with it's two sloping sides and triangular shape. Pent roofs are flat, slightly sloped from front to back, and are viewed as a more contemporary option. There's not much difference between the two, but apex roofs may provide a tad more headroom due to their arched point (the apex) in the middle.

o. The same fire precautions should be taken with plastic sheds as is done with wooden or metal sheds. Make sure to keep barbecues or open flames away from the building!

Yes. Unfortunately, due to the temperature difference between the inside of a shed and the outside, condensation is likely to occur whichever material you choose. There are ways to limit and prevent it from happening though.

Garden Sheds UK

Available in a range of styles, sizes, and materials, our range of outdoor buildings is guaranteed to include one that fits your bill. Our selection of wooden sheds, metal sheds, and plastic sheds can all be customised to suit your needs with various options on colour and size, meaning you can ensure the shed you get is the shed you always wanted.

Wooden Garden Sheds

When someone says 'garden shed' to you, what do you think of? Probably a wooden one. And as market leaders in a range of garden buildings, wooden garden sheds are one of our signature products.

We stock tongue and groove sheds, overlap sheds, storage units, and even heavier duty log cabin sheds amongst our wooden garden building range. But most of our wooden sheds are constructed using the tongue and groove method. Tongue and groove is the premium cladding option for most of our sheds, and provides excellent weather resistance due to its interlocking construction. The tight joins between panels on our tongue and groove sheds allow next to no water ingress and form a tight seal.

Metal Sheds

Perfect for people looking for a low-maintenance-but-stylish garden building, metal sheds are some of the most sought-after sheds of 2021. A galvanised steel framework ensures little to no corrosion or rust and unlike wood, metal doesn't rot. We stock apex metal sheds and pent metal sheds in a wide range of sizes, meaning you're bound to find a heavy duty metal garden shed to suit you here at BillyOh.

Plastic Sheds

On the other end of the spectrum, while not the grandest, plastic sheds are great value for money and an ideal alternative to a wooden or metal sheds.

Our plastic sheds are made from polycarbonate materials, which means they're hardy enough to withstand the harsh British weather. Comfortable with housing any outdoor furniture, barbecues, or bikes you may own, a plastic shed is ideal for small families, new homeowners, and couples alike. Due to their light weight, they're also easily transportable, meaning they're perfect for a customer who might expect to move house.
