Shed

Hi
I got a £250 B&Q voucher. We need to replace our 12x8 shed. Anyone have any experience of their sheds?
Cheers

....or buy one. pressure wash it and take it back in pieces for a refund in cash!

They are the worst made sheds in the market place!

I looked at B & Q sheds for a couple of minutes only, a few years ago. Didn't need any more than a quick glance to see how flimsy and poorly made they are.

You'd blow the sides out if you had a good fart in one!

Cheers

Fu@king shite. Spend £100 more and go to a fencing/shed merchant. I did and glad of it too. It will still be standing after 24hrs too.
Appreciate you've got a voucher but spend it on something worthwhile

This, if you are getting a shed, go to someone that does decent ones.


Alternatively, you can get make it yourself.


It's a pretty basic structure TBH.

Also if you don't have them, you get to buy some Gucci power tools

The only thing I'd buy from B&Q (or Homebase, or similar outlet) would be branded goods i.e. decent power tools or decent paints if you need to redecorate. The rest of their stock is overpriced cr@p. Definitely somewhere that I avoid.
