Every gardener would love the possibilities presented by the addition of a Diamond Potting Shed. With three distinct designs in a huge range of sizes we are confident that you will find something to delight however we can also build to order if you require something a little different.
The Diamond Solar Potting Shed is a great addition for your garden and can be used for growing produce for using in your home. It can also be used for planting seeds so that you can give those plants an early start when you plant them out in your garden.
With its pent (mono-pitch or flat roof) there should be a style which appeals to you. Take a look at one at the 1st Choice Garden Shed display area near Guildford and make your own mind up.
These buildings are some of the best available. So before choosing a new one for your garden you need to check out the specifications beforehand. In particular, the type of timber it is made from, whether any OSB board is used, and the general build quality. Check the competition out against the spec on our buildings.
WALLS
Sturdy 47mm x 47mm (45mm x 45mm finished) vertical framework clad with your choice of:
• 16mm (12mm finished) T&G Shiplap
• 19mm (15mm finished) T&G Loglap
FLOOR
16mm (12mm finished) T&G on 47mm x 47mm pressure treated floor joists with an option to upgrade to a heavy duty 18mm Caberboard floor. All buildings over 2.4m (8’) in both directions – eg 2.4m x 2.4m (8’ x 8’) but not 2.7m x 2.1m (9’ x 7’) – are upgraded to 18mm Caberboard as standard.
ROOF
16mm (12mm finished) T&G matchboard on sturdy roof purlins and covered with a heavy duty polyester based roofing felt. On apex models we offer an option of cedar shingles or long-life felt tiles if you prefer something a little more decorative.
HEIGHTS
There is a generous internal eaves height of 1.82m (6’) on all models. The internal ridge heights are stated on the product descriptions below. All external roof heights – up to 3.6m (12’) gable – comply with the 2.5m maximum height restriction imposed when erecting a building under Permitted Development.
BUILDING STYLES
Portslade – This building is available in sizes from 1.8m x 1.2m (6’ x 4’) up to 4.8m x 3.6m (16’ x 12’) and boasts a fully-boarded sloping pent-style roof. There is a 0.76m (2’ 6”) stable door with a rim-lock as well as a slatted potting bench beneath the windows. The highest part of the roof – 2.06m (6’ 9”) internally on all models – sits directly above the bench making this a good option if you plan on growing taller plants atop the bench.

There is an option of switching this for a full height single personal door, half glass door, stable door, wider door or a pair of double doors. If necessary doors can even be moved in to one of the long walls alongside the windows.
