Wanted - carpenter to quote to build a pent shed

Hello,


It isn't clear if you already have the shed, and/or whether the base is prepared. Most carpenters these days don't bother with sheds, as they are so cheaply available as kits.


In terms of price, you can pay whatever you want. For a 12 X 12, assuming you don't already have one, you can expect to pay upwards of ?1k, at the lower end, right up to 3k for a western red cedar shed, which is about as good as it gets. I.e. will look gorgeous, and will never rot.


The most important thing is to prepare the ground. There was somebody on this forum advertising a load of free paving slabs recently. These would be ideal. I can help you get these in & ensure a nice level base, with good drainage, for you. Without this, even a really good quality shed will only last a few years.


Putting the shed up will typically take less than an hour. This company charges fifty quid - less than their delivery charge!

Happy to discuss, if you need any more advice.

    • Hi, I went to the council's planning portal to look at the application, and I encourage others to look at it. It looks like a pleasant building, with thoughtful landscaping. as Pugwash said, the big oak would be retained, only two smaller trees are supposed to be cut, one of which is already dead according to the Tree Survey. It sounds like 38 people in great need of it will gain supported housing thanks to this development, a very positive change. Of course a solution has to be found for the 3 who will need to find other accommodation during the works, but that doesn't seem enough of a reason to oppose the development. The current building is 4 stories, so I would be surprised if one extra storey was considered objectionable, especially considering the big oak stands between the building and the neighbours' back gardens and the fact that the neighbours it's backing onto are all 5 stories houses themselves or only have blank walls facing the building. In the context where affordable housing is sorely missing, a 100% supported housing development is great news. Personally I've never seen a less objectionable planning request
    • I also wonder if all this, recently events and so many u turns is going to also be the end of Kier Starmer.
