Hi Jenniffer,
The timber will all be treated (tantalised) but another coat will not do it any harm and will extend its longevity. It would also be a good idea to raise the shed base from the ground using 2" x 2" treated timbers that would run the opposite to the existing floor joists. This will allow an air flow through the floor underside which delays wood rot
Am looking to buy a shed, i found this website and was wandering if anyone has any advise on what are the best models.. http://www.midlands-sheds-and-summerhouses.co.uk/shop/
Thanks in advance,
Tommy
