Your one-stop shop for quality and service1st October 2009You've spent hours searching the net and visiting what seems like a hundred garden centre display sites and, attracted by the fact they install all of their timber garden buildings free of charge*, you have decided to order a wooden garden shed from 1st Choice Leisure Buildings in Woking. So, what happens next?
 Firstly, upon receipt of your deposit, you will receive an email confirmation of your order detailing the size of your chosen timber shed, workshop or summerhouse. Once you confirm back to our Surrey office that everything is correct, the order will go across to the relevant factory where your timber building will be individually designed and hand-assembled by craftsmen using the finest quality materials. On the agreed delivery date the building will be delivered direct to your house on a small delivery vehicle and installed for you* by the factory-trained install team. At that point your lengthy warranty period will commence.
"But, surely it can't be that simple?" we hear you ask. Well, it is: almost! Whilst we will erect your building for you without charge* we do require the provision of a suitable base for the building to sit upon - something that has, in the past, been a bit of a show-stopper from time to time. Whilst some of our customers like to get their hands dirty and tackle the project many have been put off by the thought of the time-consuming, costly and potentially back-breaking task of preparing the site. Ever since we started trading in 1979 it has pained us that this is the one area where we have had to say 'sorry, that's something we don't do.' That feeling is alien to us. Our goals at 1st Choice Leisure Buildings have always been to make your life as simple as possible and to then go home each evening happy in the knowledge that each and every customer who has taken delivery of one of our buildings that day is delighted with the quality building and the high standard of service that they have received. We are serious about those goals and will only work with a select number of companies who share our beliefs.
Over the years we have been approached by numerous companies who claim that they can provide us with a reliable and cost-effective base laying service but we have always remained sceptical and reluctant to embrace their services. However, over the past nine months, we have been putting an increasing number of our customers in touch with Viking Construction Services in Woking who have offered them a number of services such base construction and even removal and disposal of their old sheds. Feedback from these customers has been exemplary and so we have decided to officially endorse their services. Not before time we are delighted to be able to offer their full range of services to our customers.
So, what exactly are we offering?
Site clearance and removal of old buildings In the old days it wasn't uncommon to hear of people taking a sledge hammer to their old shed, dragging it into the middle of their garden and setting fire to it! That attitude went out with the ark, of course, so you will be pleased that we can now arrange for your building to be dismantled and disposed of. If necessary we can also dismantle your old brick-built garage, your metal shed or your greenhouse.
Viking Construction Services are licensed by the Environment Agency as an authorised waste carrier and will provide certification upon request. Why is this important? Well because, if you employ a less scrupulous company and your shed ends up dumped in a field, YOU are ultimately responsible. The authorities do not mess about when they come knocking on your door - and rightly so!
Base construction The addition of our base construction service is the real big news and it is something that should be considered by everyone. It is vital to the longevity of your new shed, summerhouse or home office that it sits on a good solid foundation. Without this the life of the building will be severely reduced and you may find the building listing to one side, the floor bouncy and rotting, doors and windows sticking and the roof leaking.
 
There are various methods of creating a suitable base ranging from concrete, through paving slabs to the latest innovation: the Ecobase recycled interlocking tile system. For a super solid job though we recommend the timber sub frame method. First a hefty outer timber frame is constructed to the exact size of your new garden building using maintenance-free Tanalised timber. This frame is then spanned with a generous number of cross joists and then squared and levelled to suit your ground. It is completely self supporting and the vertical supports which are driven way down into the ground ensure that this system works perfectly even on a slope.
Installation of metal sheds Metal sheds make a truly cost-effective storage solution and are becoming increasingly popular in these increasingly price-conscious times of late. But they can be time-consuming and frustrating to assemble so an installation service is something well worth considering if you are looking to buy one. We have been offering this service for some time (check where we can install your buildings) and, whilst it is definitely possible to assemble them yourself, having us come to your site and assemble your new metal storage shed. We can assemble buildings from our Store More, Shed Baron, Asgard and Trimetals ranges as well as others. Generally steel sheds will come without an integrated floor - being designed to sit directly on top of a concrete base - but, due to the other services offered, we can even construct a sturdy base and floor for your steel building to sit on.
Ancillary services Viking can also carry out most other pre-install services from pruning your trees to building a run of fencing or constructing an area of timber decking on which you can sit and enjoy the summer sun. Once your building has been installed they can return to carry out any other services required such as applying an extra coat of timber preservative or fitting guttering to catch that precious rainwater. Inside your building it is possible to line and insulate it and add shelves or a workbench to create a fantastic workshop or, if you are looking to add extra space to your home, they can fit it out as a comfortable and stylish home office or games room. They are even able to source and install furniture to your requirements leaving your building ready for you to move in.
 
When looking for a new garden or leisure building we are now truly your one-stop shop. For further information or for your no-obligation estimate please contact Craig in our Woking office on 01483 725350 or 07792 060216.

| | Guide to Buying Garden Sheds or Timber WorkshopWhen you buy a Garden Shed or Outdoor building, you can choose between a large range of garden sheds companies to choose from, offering a very large range of pricing and quality, HOWEVER, it is important that you choose the right quality so that it is built to last. Many Internet companies offer their sheds WITHOUT the option to view, (is it because they don't want you to see their product before they take your money?) so until the building arrives you have no idea of how good or BAD your purchase is.
We have take the option to invest in a DISPLAY site where you can see the QUALITY Diamond, Trent and Humber Garden timber sheds in situ for YOUR INSPECTION.
You can then make your mind up by phycially examining our sheds BEFORE you make that decision.
The other BONUS is that we will ASSEMBLE these timber garden buildings for you FREE of charge.
If any company is not prepared to let you see their product beforehand then you need to be CAREFUL. We recommend you VIEW beforehand if poss and we are confident and happy to display our products before you spend a penny of your hard earned money.
If you are thinking of buying a timber garden shed there are many things to consider to ensure your don't waste your money. With many cheap garden sheds on the market you may be tempted to think these will fulfil your needs but it you intend to use the sheds for many years this can be a false economy.
You need to be very careful with the type of timber, the thickness of timber and the type of materials used for the floor and roof. Often chipboard and OSB boards are used for them as these are a cheap alternative to proper timber. These companies often (normally) describe them as solid sheet materials as they are too embarrassed to tell you the truth. They also do not offer any guarantees on these chipboard and OSB boarded floor as they KNOW they won't last the minute they get wet. For further buying advice take a look on this page
How do we know all this about Garden Sheds and how qualified are we to say this? We have been involved in the manufacture of timber garden sheds and workshops since 1979. For over 20 years we ran one of the largest Garden Shed companies in the south of England and made the consious decision to only deal with quality materials which we knew would last the test of time. This ethos probably comes from our upbringing. Our father was a Master Butcher in Cleethorpes, Lincolnshire and Quality was always the keyword behind his business which he took over from his father.
As you can see we are not just sales people selling a range of products who know nothing of little about the products but have the history behind us to ensure that when you choose '1st Choice' then you know your building will be '1st Choice.
