That garage/shed is great! Did you build it from scratch or buy it and erect it in place? Could do with something like that in my garden

Thanks, Local shed place built from my design. It had to get 2 cars in and offset doors for space for shelving. I had to do founds, as I didn’t want timber floor. It is evolving all the time...

Sealed walls
Extra seal on roof
Guttering ( I had dug out drainage channels prior)
Shelving
Full electrics including led light panels and sockets
New / extra locks

Price all in was a fraction of a brick built

That is looking really good. Will you put the wooden paneling and trims back on the sides?

What would you do?
However, I have a plan ( so cunning you could stick a tail on it and call it a fox)!
