Quality reasonably priced garden sheds

I bought a shed from a particular company and had to return it after the wood slats started to gap and shrink. Does anyone recommend a company they have used which produces quality sheds at reasonable prices? Or one which offers credit terms? I was looking for 8x10 but could go one size smaller.

    Didee - I got mine from here  https://www.meritgardenproducts.co.uk - mainly because their head office is just up the road from here.

    I wanted a larger (non-standard size) high quality potting shed. They custom built one for me with upgraded  wood (thicker, pressure treated), extra windows, safety glass, stable door and shingle style tiles for the roof - and it still cost less than comparable, standard products from other companies I looked at.

    They also delivered and erected it for free which was a definite plus - most other companies charged for this service. I am very pleased with it image

    Thanks Topbird for your reply, I'll take a look at this site - they also seem to have a showroom close to my sister so I can go on my next visit.image

    Good luck Didee8.

    One word of friendly advice... If you think you want an 8 x 10 shed and you have room for it without it being an eyesore - that is what you should have. It's amazing how quickly they fill up and, if you have a smaller one, you will almost certainly regret it when you can't quite get the bike and the lawn mower and the whatever in - or you have to move everything to get stuff out. image

    Thanks Topbird - I think you're right- there are many things cluttering up my house at the moment that could go straight into a large shed now!
