Professional shed assembly - panels fitted squarely, roof felted without leaks, doors that open and close properly. Garden sheds assembled on your prepared base, weathertight and ready for use.
### Essential Garden Storage
Garden sheds store everything - **mowers, bikes, tools, furniture, all the stuff that won't fit anywhere else**. But shed panels are heavy, felting is fiddly, and getting everything square takes skill.
> 🏠 **Weathertight matters.** A properly assembled shed stays dry and works properly for 15-20 years. Get it right first time.

Good to Know
> 🏗️ **Base first, always** - I can't build a shed on grass. If you don't have a base, that needs doing before I arrive. This can be DIY paving slabs or professional groundwork. **Treatment:** - Factory dip isn't enough - Spirit-based preserver needed - Treat annually after that - Cut ends especially important **Weather:** - Need dry, calm day - Can't felt in rain - Will postpone if needed
Frequently Asked Questions about Shed assembly in Ottery St Mary
Do I need a base?
Absolutely. Sheds need a solid, level base - paving slabs, concrete, or pressure-treated bearers. Without it, doors won't close and floors rot.
How long does assembly take?
A typical 6x4 or 8x6 takes half a day. Larger sheds or workshops take most of a day. Very large or complex can be two days.
Is factory dip treatment enough?
No - it's basic protection only. Devon weather needs proper spirit-based wood preserver applied to all surfaces.
Can you remove my old shed first?
Yes - dismantling old sheds is common. I can remove the old one and build the new one in one visit.
