I need a new one but can't decide if I should get a metal, plastic or wooden one. Also, what bases have you all used for your sheds? Thanks in advance :)

Sorry should say roof

Answer 3

Wooden, last for years and years, tried and tested, easily repaired later in life, can be taken down and put back up, paint any colour

Answer 4

I'd say go for wooden, it should be sturdier and lasts for ages

Answer 5

I used to have a metal shed and the condensation was dreadful. Everything was mouldy. Got rid of it for a wooden one and all is well now. It is on cheep flag stones from B&Q

Answer 6

If you get a plastic she'd make sure it's well secured. We had a half shed storage box and in strong wind it got whipped out of the garden and it smashed into pieces and blew down the street.  

Answer 7

Literally disposed of my Mum’s wooden shed yesterday. We worked out it was 30 years old. Poor thing had started to rot. So I’d suggest a wooden shed. My own shed is on a wooden spiked frame straight onto the grass, it’s been pre-treated and will stop the grass growing, also ventilating the shed floor. Base cost well under £100 and a lot less time and effort than a concrete base.  

Answer 8

Wooden one deffo. Rest are a waste of money.
