In this post we will let you know just how important it is to have your shed sited in the optimal position.
In the course of the service that we provide, we dismantle a number of sheds each week that could have been saved if only the basic care & yearly maintenance had been given.
We will therefore regularly update this blog giving some simple tips & advice on caring and ultimately the dismantling procedure & safe disposal of your shed.
Location Location location
Firstly, if you are considering buying a new shed, please think about not only the shed base but the positioning of the shed to begin with.
Whether it’s being used to store garden tools, growing plants or vegetables, homeowners should be sure to position their sheds wisely leaving good access on all sides allowing yearly maintenance.
Location is seldom thought through thoroughly, most people think a shed belongs right at the top of the garden.
Whilst this is not wrong, and there maybe a number of reason for this, many forget to leave enough space to safely perform basic yearly maintenance.
Weeds
When positioning your shed, tight against a boundary fence or wall, not only could this upset the neighbours it can & will promote wet rot to that side.
Instead leave enough space to allow you access to all sides which helps with a good air flow and warmth from the weather, but importantly gives you the room to keep them weeds at bay!
