Are you the type of homeowner who maximises every inch of your garden space? If so, our unique collection of corner sheds is designed for you. These innovative structures, exclusive to 1st Choice, fit into tight spaces where traditional sheds can’t, allowing you to utilise your plot’s square footage fully. With their unique design and high-quality construction, our corner sheds stand out from the competition.
Our corner sheds are not just for storage. Use them for garden tools, workshops, or to complement the rest of your outdoor space by providing a focal point. Their versatility makes them a perfect addition to any garden.
Quality Redwood Construction
1st Choice Leisure Buildings uses redwood to construct our corner garden sheds. We deliberately avoid inferior materials, like OSB artificial boards, to improve overall quality. Redwood is our timber of choice due to its renowned durability and stunning aesthetics.
It looks fantastic and can last for years, even when used heavily. It’s tough enough to withstand things leaning against it and even the famous British weather. With regular treatments, it can endure freezing winter temperatures for many years.
Toughened Glass Windows For Extra Strength
Shed windows’ average life expectancy isn’t long. And given how people use outbuildings, that’s not surprising. Conventional panes usually get smashed and are challenging to replace. Fortunately, our toughened glass makes broken windows less likely to occur.
Hailstorms are no match! It is made through the process of tempering. Heating the outside while allowing the inside to cool creates a dynamic tension that holds the glass in place when under stress, even when conventional glass would smash. It’s why glass coffee table tops are so strong, but jam jars aren’t!
Customise Your Shed Your Way
With 1st Choice, you can customise your shed your way. (Forget generic options!) With us, you can choose the colour finish, size, shape, and base for your corner garden storage, providing you with exactly what you need. Every shed we build is unique and tailored to you.
If you aren’t sure which corner garden structures are suitable for your plot of land, we can help. Our team can suggest ideas that match your existing outdoor spaces and provide you with utility for many years to come.
For example, if you want to use the shed in the winter, we suggest optional insulation to retain warmth.
Take Care Of Everything With Our Free Installation
Furthermore, 1st Choice offers free installation on all large corner sheds and the small corner sheds we sell, making your life even easier. Our team arrives at your property and erects your new outbuilding in hours, sometimes minutes! We handle the construction process from start to finish, allowing you to watch or do something else.

-
Can a corner shed in Surrey have windows or skylights under permitted development?
Yes, you can have windows or skylights as long as your shed is under the height limit and is
only used for garden purposes. To keep neighbours happy, angle windows for privacy—this is especially important for corner locations.
-
Can I build a corner shed on a sloping garden in Surrey?
Yes, you can build on a sloping site, but you will likely need a raised or terraced base to level the shed. Use concrete pads, timber bearers, or a reinforced plinth. Make sure drainage channels water away from the shed and keep the base dry to protect it and meet building best practices.
-
How can I make a corner shed eco-friendly in Guildford?
Use sustainably sourced timber or recycled materials. Consider solar lights and rainwater collection. If you plan to use the shed as a studio or office, insulate it to save energy. Plant shrubs nearby to attract wildlife and help the shed fit into your garden.
-
How do I choose the right size corner shed for a small garden in Guildford?
First, measure your corner space carefully, and leave enough room around the shed for maintenance and water drainage. Next, consider what you need to store - such as bikes, garden tools, or a lawnmower - and allow space for future items. For small gardens, a 6–10 ft² shed is typical. For larger equipment, look for a 12–16 ft² shed. Always make sure your shed fits within permitted development limits.
-
How do I secure a corner shed against theft in Guildford or Woking?
Use strong padlocks or built-in locks on the doors. Anchor the shed firmly to a concrete or timber base so it can’t be lifted. For extra protection, install motion-sensor lights or CCTV if the shed is visible from the street. Sheds with lockable doors and reinforced panels boost security without affecting planning permissions.
-
What are the maintenance tips for a timber corner shed in Woking?
Treat all
wooden surfaces with preservative every 2–3 years to stop rot. Inspect the roof every season and replace damaged shingles quickly. Trim back any plants near the shed so they do not touch it or cause dampness.
-
What foundations are recommended for corner sheds in Woking gardens?
Start with a flat, stable foundation.
Concrete slabs last longest and need little care. Timber bearers offer drainage but need occasional treatment. Paving slabs or gravel can be installed quickly if the ground is level.
* Timber bearers: great drainage, just needs a little care now and then.
* Paving slabs or gravel: quick to install, but need proper levelling.
These foundation types all help protect your shed from movement, flooding, and wood rot.
-
What materials are best for corner garden sheds in Surrey’s climate?
Timber sheds look good and insulate well, but remember to treat them against rot and insects. Metal sheds last a long time and need little care, but can get hot during the summer. Plastic or resin sheds are waterproof and easy to care for, which makes them well-suited to rainy Surrey weather. In urban areas like Woking, ensure your shed materials comply with local fire safety guidance.
