When choosing a timber building, you need to check the specifications to ensure it will have the strength to last. So always check out the thickness of the timber, whether it’s made from redwood or the cheap inferior whitewood, how thick the framing is etc. Are the doors and windows joinery made, meaning they will last a long time? Does it has toughened glass for safety or imperfect horticultural glass, plastic or perspex? All important questions.
On many of the buildings available on the web, you will find that they will deliver them to your house and leave them for you to build. You can save a little money this way, but you will have to build it yourself. That’s OK if you are a good DIYer, but it will still be hard work. The best option is to take advantage of 1st Choice’s FREE assembly option on the Diamond and Platinum buildings. They will do all the hard work – all you need to do is build a level base for it to go onto. And they can even arrange that for you as well if you wish. This way, you can be sure your new building will be built correctly, and all you need to do is enjoy it.
We have a large range of
garden shed sizes for you to choose from and in several styles. However, we specialise in making buildings to suit your needs. Whether it needs to be taller, extra or fewer windows, the doors and windows moved, we can do that for you. Ensure you buy the building to suit you and your family with no compromises. Give us a call on (0333) 800 8880 or visit our showroom and discuss what you would like. We are happy to provide a quote to suit you with no pressure.
To make the most of your new building, it’s a good idea to have it
lined and insulated to get the most use out of you all year round. Doing so will keep the building cooler in summer and warmer in winter. It’s possible to do this yourself if you feel confident. However, there is an option to do this for you on all the
Platinum buildings. It can be seen as a luxury, but you will be glad you did on those hot summer days or cold winter days. Just contact us, and we will arrange a free quote for you.
We provide 10×7 sheds with a protective treatment but why not consider a building painted with Sadolin (Diamond Buildings) or Valtti (Platinum Buildings) paints. Both are available in a range of colours so you find a colour to suit you. You can find more details about
painted sheds here. Or, just contact us, and we will arrange a free quote for you.

Before deciding on a new 7×10 shed for your garden, you should always do your homework (sorry!) as it’s very easy to be taken in with a flashy website leaflet or colour brochure. Try to find time and make a trip down to our showroom where you can examples on view. By doing so, you will then be able to decide what you may be buying. We have a large collection of wooden buildings that you are welcome to view. We will be delighted to show you the different buildings and answer any queries you may have. We can provide quotations as well. Another thing to do is to take a look at the
feedback from previous customers which can be enlightening.
All of our timber sheds which we sell are not the 'cheap and cheerful' buildings you can buy online made from inferior materials and down to a price. After 40 years in the business we know what is important in making a quality garden shed - one that will last and will look good in your garden.
Don't risk buying a 'bad un'. Do your research and always, if possible, go and look at your intended purchase before signing on the 'dotted line'. Don't end up in the situation - if only! Visit one of our show sites and see for yourself how good our sheds are. You won't regret it.

A 10X7
garden workshop has become his main place when he goes to paint revealed Damien Hirst. When speaking on Radio 4’s Front Row, he admitted that he is now painting by hand rather than creating the big installations which he is well known for. He is a little embarrassed by some of his more earlier recent artworks created in the shed.
For over two years he admitted he was a little wary of people seeing his work and didn’t want anyone to come into his garden shed and see his creations. He fully expected art critics not to like his new work. He went on to say that they would ‘hate them – hate them’
People are more used to seeing animals made from formaldehyde and are actually shocked that you have picked up a brush and canvas and going back in time. I’m sure the great artists of the past will be turning in their graves at this thought.
Damien Hirst was born in 1965 and his full name is Damien Steven Hirst. He is as English artist, art collector and entrepreneur. He was part of the Young British Artists, of which he was a prominent member, and these dominated the art scene in the 1990’s.
His 10 x7 garden shed is at his farmhouse in Devon in the grounds where he can work in peace. Devon is probably best known for Clotted Cream, also known as Devonshire Cream, and farmhouse cider (Scrumpy.)
One of life’s little pleasure is clotted cream, rich and thick, spread on warm scones with home-made strawberry jam maybe sitting outside his 10ft x 7ft shed.
