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.

    • Personally I feel its a shame for the tree. The bridge looks pretty badly damaged-I just hope it does'nt mean the entrance from Dulwich Common/Lordship Lane will be closed for ages while they fix it.
    • This is such a shame for the bridge.  I wonder if anyone saw it fall, and when it was (at night?) Is the walking path through the woods still accessible?   
    • Free range chickens &/ organic whole chickens are around £15-20 retail these days…  Given their credentials in hospitality etc I’d assume Norbert’s has sourced decent quality chicken, wholesale. The fact they aren’t saying anything about that on the menu or website seems strange…  if it were true it would help justify the price. Chicken & 2 x Chips - would work out £10.50 a head between 4… not bad if it’s decent quality chicken and seasoned well with care & skill
    • I have no lawn but still trying to get wild flowers to germinate. After a couple of years sowing seeds I've finally managed to produce some ox eye daisies. Still trying to succeed with cornflowers, vipers bugloss to name but a few. A couple of foxgloves are coming up. Its a gradual process for which we need lots of patience. Don't forget after No Mow May it's Let it Bloom June.
