It was JFK who said, “the time to repair the roof is when the sun is shining”.

We’ve put together a short five-part video series on exactly what you need to be looking for when choosing your very own timber garden building.

As you’d expect, we get asked a lot about what you need to look out for when it comes to getting a timber garden building installed.

We’re back up and running here, but well aware that the virus is still a risk, but we are taking the next step in the Covid-19 world.

With any purchase there’s a lot of research that needs to be done and sometimes it’s easier than others. Based on many years’ experience at Shields Buildings we go the extra mile to give our customers help and support during their journey, so a conversation with us could really save you lots of time. 

Summer is around the corner – well almost we hope – and it’s time to think about the maintenance of your timber garden building.

With something this important we thought it best to walk you through 'The Big 3' things that will make the difference to your roofing options.

This is a question we get asked a LOT! In short much will depend on the location of the proposed building within your property. It is often quite hard to get your head around it, but here are the main guidelines.

A concrete base is generally only necessary where the building is having a concrete floor, such as a garage, mower or machinery store.

We will come to you to do a site visit. At this stage we can assess your property and the location of your proposed garden building. We want to make sure that we provide you with a quote for a timber building that is suitable for the space available and meets all your requirements. This can sometimes be a challenge, but with careful measuring and planning we can usually come up with a solution, as you can see in the photo below!
