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 11 x 5 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 11 x 5 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.

Quite a while ago, certainty in the age of steam railways, you would find that the local station master would spend a great deal of time keeping THEIR station looking beautiful which was great for him and all the passengers. The slightly older citizens of this country will remember Doctor Beeching who back in 1963 was responsible for the axing of 1000’s of miles of track and 3000 stations were closed changing this way of life forever. Thankfully Ashford in Middlesex kept their station.
Move forward to the 21st century where everybody is rushing about you and you don’t see this hardly at all. However, another group of workers who still take pride in their surroundings are lock keepers on this country’s extensive canal network. When they get a spare moment they get their spades, hoes and shears out of their sheds (one of the less common sizes is 11 x 5) and work away banishing weeds and cherishing flowers and delightful plants. If you can take a look at these beautiful places and even in the depth of winter these gardens are still delightful.
We British love our gardens and so do the church wardens who cherish their gardens keeping them looking superb. Often working from only a 11 x 5 garden shed or hut they compete in the biannual Best Kept Church Garden competition in various different categories depending on the size of church yard.
Just recently St Peters Parish Church in Bengeworth, close to Evesham in Worcestershire, won 1st prize for the under ‘one acre’ category. This was a superb achievement as the grounds had been left derelict and forgotten about for a long time. Transforming this garden at the Victorian church was a labour of love for Pat Coombes, who had guided this garden restoration project, with her band of willing local volunteers.
She said that over a period of ten years they had been working on the garden and slowly transformed the garden to the show piece it is now. She and her volunteers were very proud of their work converting the abandoned land into an award winning garden. They also had a great of fun and pleasure in creating this garden which they share with all the church goers and the local villagers.
This just goes to show that even the most unkempt garden can be transformed, not necessarily into an award winning garden but certainly to a pleasurable open space where your garden building can be situated or maybe a 11 x 5 shed – cum – summerhouse for sitting out for relaxing. Away from the phone and the hustle and bustle of daily life our humble British garden can give us all a boost to our mental well-being and health in general.
Have you converted a disused garden? Have you entered any gardening competitions? Would you consider a replacement timber shed as part of the garden project?
