The Benefits of a Pre-Painted Shed

factory painted shed

Why choose a painted garden shed over one that has yet to be painted? There are several great reasons to do this, whether you’re looking for a small shed for tools or a larger shed to use as a workshop.

Firstly, a factory-painted shed will add a wonderful burst of colour to your garden. The natural look of wood can be nice if you want your shed to blend in, but choosing a painted shed means you get the benefit of some characterful colour instead.

You can install a shed that coordinates with the other hues in your garden or look for a shade that will stand out. Apart from the aesthetics, the other significant advantage is that it offers additional protection.

Your shed is exposed to the elements and can take a battering from wind, rain and more. But with a specialised paint coating, it’s treated to protect it from the ever-changing British weather.

Buying a coloured garden shed also saves you time and effort. There’s no need to spend time choosing and buying paint and then painting your shed when you can order a beautiful one.

Opting for a pre-painted option saves time and effort, as you won’t need to do the painting yourself. With durable materials and a reputation for quality, 1st Choice Leisure Buildings delivers value that meets practical and visual needs.

How to Choose the Right Shed Colour

Picking the right shed colour is all-important if you want the right look. Some shades stand out much more than others, while less bright colours offer a more neutral look. You may want to make a statement but prefer to keep your shed understated so it doesn’t attract attention.

When looking for the right colour, consider the existing colours in your garden. Choose a colour you love that fits in with your garden design. Consider maintenance. Which colours might be easier to touch up if necessary?

Professional Paint Job or Do It Yourself?

As an alternative to buying a painted garden workshop or shed, you could paint it yourself. But is it worth it? Painting your shed takes time, and it will cost money to get the right paint, too. Not to mention that you could get it wrong if you’re not very experienced. Buying a pre-painted shed is the better option to save time and money.

FAQs For Painted Sheds

Do I need to prime my shed before painting?

Priming your shed before painting is essential to ensure better adhesion of the paint to the surface and improved durability and longevity of the finish. Skipping this crucial step can result in uneven paint coverage, premature peeling or flaking, and wasting time and resources. A coat of primer helps seal the surface, prevents moisture penetration, and provides a smooth base for the paint to adhere to, resulting in a professional-looking and long-lasting paint job.
Is it a good idea to paint a shed?

Painting a shed can enhance its appearance, protect it from the elements, and increase its lifespan. Applying a fresh coat of paint can prevent wood rot, mould growth, and insect infestations. Additionally, choosing a high-quality exterior paint can add value to your property and make your shed stand out in your backyard. Ensure that the shed is clean and dry before painting, and consider factors such as weather conditions and proper ventilation during the painting process. Painting your shed can be a worthwhile investment in aesthetics and maintenance.
What is the longest lasting paint for a shed?

When selecting paint for a shed, consider using acrylic latex paint, known for its durability and longevity. This type of paint is resistant to fading, cracking, and peeling, making it ideal for outdoor structures exposed to various weather conditions. Acrylic latex paint also provides excellent protection against moisture and UV rays, ensuring your shed remains fresh and vibrant for years to come.
