Whether you’re looking for the perfect hobby shed or a space to store garden essentials, you can’t go wrong with installing a shed 7×5 in size. After all, they are the perfect blend of compact and spacious. A shed of this size can comfortably fit a lawnmower, a couple of bikes, and shelving for your gardening tools, making it an ideal choice for homeowners with smaller gardens. This ensures you maximise storage without occupying too much valuable space.
If you’re looking for a 7×5 workshop for your home, look at 1st Choice Leisure Buildings. Since 1979, we have been producing high-quality sheds to meet our customers’ needs. Not only that, but unlike with other providers, you will not face any additional charges when it comes to installation, thanks to our free installation services on all our wooden sheds.

All of our bespoke, customisable sheds are made from the highest-quality timber, as opposed to OSB (Oriented Strand Board) or manmade boards. Not only is this much more aesthetically pleasing, but it is also much more durable. This means that your shed is built to last! All with great height inside.
If, as mentioned above, you intend to use your shed as a home office, garden gym or entertainment space, then you may also want to insulate this space. This way, your space can remain usable all year round – not just when the weather is nice!
Glass windows can improve the overall appearance of your shed while providing you with access to natural light when they are in use. At 1st Choice, we use toughened glass on all of our Diamond and Platinum buildings as this again can help ensure that it stands the test of time.
If you have a specific vision for your 5×7 shed, we’re here to bring that to life. For example, we have a wide range of colour finishes available, from more traditional shades of brown to more adventurous blues. Either way, a specialist coating prevents fading and ensures your shed always looks great.
At 1st Choice, we put YOU first, and our customers’ feedback shows this. This means that you’ll be in charge at every stage of the process. From your initial enquiry, our team will guide you through designing your new shed, helping you explore our bespoke designs and customisation options. Once you approve the design, we schedule the installation at your convenience, ensuring that the entire process is seamless and tailored to your needs.
So, whether you are ready to get started right away or would like to visit our Surrey showroom to explore your options in more detail, please do not hesitate to get in touch today. We look forward to hearing from you.

Can you put a shed on paving slabs?
Garden sheds are a must-have feature for every typical British garden. These sanctuaries allow you to appreciate the seasons’ glory while also giving shelter from the sun, wind, and rain.
However, if you want your shed to last, you must learn how to build its foundation. Otherwise, it may decay from the ground up, topple over, or succumb to the wind. Your options are paving slabs, a concrete base, timber beams or a timber subframe.
Fortunately, you will not have to learn how to build a garden shed on your own. This
guide is here to help. It discusses the various types of bases for garden buildings, how to construct them, who to hire for base construction, and how to repair and maintain your installation. Everything you need is in one location.

How long should a garden shed last?
The lifespan of a garden shed can vary depending on several factors, such as the materials used, quality of construction, climate, and maintenance. However, according to various sources, the average lifespan of a garden shed is between 20 and 30 years.
The quality of the materials used can make a large difference. And also be wary about buying a shed which use certain man made boards such as OSB (oriental strand board). These boards have been known to disintegrate when they get wet. Not very good for an outside building.
-
How much space should I leave between a shed and a fence?
In the UK, you can place a shed right up to the property line (right next to the fence), but you must not allow any part of the shed to overhang into the neighbour's garden. However, the shed must not be more than 2.5m tall. It is recommended, however, to leave about 0.5m to allow for maintenance and repairs.
Having said that, it is still important to check local council regulations as well as to check the deeds to our home, as there may be restrictions in them. It is always a good policy to have a chat with your neighbour before putting up a shed.

Is it cheaper to build your own garden shed
If you are thinking of building your own garden shed, it is possible, and you can save money in some instances. You would need to shop around for the best prices on materials, but bear in mind not to buy cheaply. That is never a good policy. Remember that the final cost will depend on factors such as the size of the shed, the materials used,
You need to think of the tools required as well as the time. Can you justify the time spent? However, you can make the shed exactly as you want, but many shed companies, such as 1st Choice Leisure Buildings, will do that for you. They will also assemble the shed for you. Ultimately, you need to justify the time and cost for your circumstances.
-
Is it possible to build your own shed?
It is reasonably easy to assemble the smaller sheds if someone can help you move the panels around whilst you screw them together. However, it is very important that you take your time and do the job correctly. This is vitally important with the fixing of the roof and the felting of it. If you get it wrong water may get onto your building and damage your possessions. Not a good idea.
However, as standard, 1st Choice includes free installation of the building which is a far better idea. This saves you a lot of hard work and ensures it is built correctly which will help its long life.

What is the average cost of a garden shed?
The cost of a medium-sized shed of 6 x 8 feet can range from £550 to £1400 for supply costs alone, while a large metal shed of 8 x 10 feet can cost between £650 to £700 for supply costs. Labour costs can range from £150 to £450, depending on the size of the shed.
However, it is worth noting that prices may vary depending on the location of the supplier or installer, and the quality of the materials used. Like everything, price should not be the only criteria. It can be like comparing a basic family car with a Ferrari. Always try and view before deciding.

Why is viewing a shed in person essential before purchasing?
With the internet, it's often difficult to see what your new building will be like. This is why it's essential to view examples before delivery. This way, you can see how well it's been made, whether there is sufficient head height, whether the doors and windows are solidly made and how good the timber is
Whilst some internet-only companies may claim it's best to buy online, it is only sometimes possible to be sure what you are getting. If they are not prepared to let you see their buildings beforehand, then be wary. At our company, we prioritise transparency and customer satisfaction by allowing clients to visit our showrooms and inspect our buildings in advance. The cheapest price is only sometimes the best value.
