The base you lay it on, the roof you put on it and screwing it together will help the lifespan.

I got a couple of sheds from a local supplier 10 years ago and they are still fine. My dad has one in the corner of his garden that must be over 40 years old and is in good condition.

We’ve got one coming in a few weeks so can report back then..

Had to order a slightly odd size (7x4) and it was either bespoke for ££££, one high end company who wanted nearly £600 or Tiger for about £350 so after reading reviews decided to give them a go.

Wanted to avoid the Wickes/B&Q specials in any case as they are uniformly crap despite being cheaper.

Good base, paint/stain straight away and it should last a long time.

Tiger shed do that but slightly bigger - I know because I bought one 10 years ago and it's just about to give out (cosmetically - a few years left in it otherwise)

Thanks, yours would be ideal if it a little taller. I’ve sent and enquiry message to Tiger asking if they can make the tool store I posted out of shiplap instead of overlap.

I’ve just finished building my (heavy duty) Summer Shed.

Happy with the finished product it’s shiplap and seems pretty sturdy. Overall I’m pleased I went for Tiger. However, it’s taken a while to build as first it was delivered without a roof - the delivery drivers scarpered off without mentioning it.

Other problems I had were that the roof felt delivered was for the wrong customer - I didn’t realise until I unpackaged it and started to cut it before realising it was for a smaller shed. The roof truss I got was the wrong size, so I had to modify it, and the window battens were the wrong size too. These last two issues were probably from ordering the non-standard heavy duty framing, but annoying that the logistics weren’t great on this.

My main recommendation if you go with them is to spend a good 15 mins checking your order against the delivery.
