Well maybe it is time for you to think about buying a new shed, particularly given the awful rainy weather that has been hitting us in the past few weeks.
Many older ones have simply begun to fall apart or leak with the horrendous wind and rainfall over the past couple of months.
So if you are thinking about buying one then what should you be looking for? Well first of all you may well have inherited a shed that was there when you bought your house, and whilst it is okay for storing the lawnmower in, is it the ideal size for what you really need it for? Often older sheds can be somewhere where we do not relish going in to, with junk piled up everywhere and everything you actually need to get to is always on the other side of the shed, does this sound familiar? Your old one may have no lights in it, thus meaning that finding fuse wire in your toolbox at night can be somewhat testing.
Modern sheds can now be made in just about any size you want, thus meaning you not limited to a 6ft by 8ft shed as you were many years ago, so you can now buy one that easily takes the families mountain bikes, keeping them secure, dry and out of the hallway! You can get them fitted with insulation and lights, meaning that you can use them as a hobby room and not just for storage.
Indeed you can even buy wooden workshop rooms that can have full height headroom throughout as well as worktops and masses of storage space enabling them to be used for running a small home based business from.
A modern shed will also be designed to be a lot sturdier than your old one, both in terms of overall strength as well as being more physically secure, which is important as thefts from sheds are one of the most common forms of burglary.
You can now get high grade secure locks and fixings, as well as alarms.
So as you can see there are many reasons to consider buying a new one, particularly ones having such features as pressure treated wood, which can mean years of having to do virtually no maintenance.
Now is also a good time to buy one as summer approaches, and if you decided to buy one it can be erected by two people in a day or two at the most, even with limited Do It Yourself (DIY) skills.
