New Garden Shed

11 comments


I have been limping along with a shed not fit for purpose for a number of years now. Leaky roof which I had fixed twice and bottom corners chewed by pet rabbits! So everything got mouldy or rusted inside! Over the years all my garden stuff like tools etc… were being kept in utility and garage fighting for space amongst my husband’s cycling paraphernalia! So I decided to take down said shed, get a friend to re- build a base and put a new one up! Spent a lots of sweat painting it during heatwave but it was worth it. Also decided to put on tin roof to ensure a super dry shed. Still got a few jobs to do but nearly there. Anyway, I waffle on! Please see pictures of shed before and after!

That's terrific, your before shed looks better than many of mine still in use. Your new one, fit for a summer-house, well worth the effort.

It's a nice new shed and I like the colour you've painted it. Tin roof should last a long time.

Looks good enough to live in! I, too, like the colour.

Doesn't it look at home in that corner! My favourite garden paint colour . A job well done.

Jobs a good one, I personally hate painting so no way would I have done that job during the heat wave, hope you gave yourself a treat afterwards.....
