My 2nd shed build.

[gaz1]

look everywhere for your roofing materials i did

look on gumtree, freeads, ebay anywhere where you could buy your roofing

either go for insulated roof or go for metal roof or box profile roof

i tried every search to find what i was after and let lucky that someone was taking theres off local to me

metal roof is better for me though i can use torch on i choose a metal roof instead

Finished 70mm floor installation today all joints sealed up with aluminium tape.

Hopefully make a start with 18mm osb3 floor tomorrow.

As I think I have mentioned before two side of the shed are not really visible to me. So looking an alternative to shiplap and feather edge that I mite use on the two side's I can see etc.

not seen just metal sheet it then or box profile roof used as rear and a side

Just ticking over on the build not killing myself in the heat . Been trying to decide on cladding finish along with roof finish . Just to many choices.

I do like the look of the Firestone epdm for the roof. Watched a few demo's on YouTube and look easy enough and a job that looks like it wouldn't take long to complete.


I'm bound to have done something wrong but I only have limited skills and experience.

Id recommend EPDM. Makes a tidy job and I reckon easier than felting

Few updates on the shed. IST fix electrics done. Insulation done on walls 70mm and roof with all joint taped. Almost finished OSB on the inside. All windows are second-hand picked up local .

I'm not a builder just diy.

Hi just a few more photos of last year's build.

Totally forgot to update this. But here are a few photos . In the end I went for the epmd rubber roof and very easy to install. I have access round the sides of shed for extra outside storage and maintenance etc.

3 windows into total so good natural light. Outside power point outside along with 6 doubles inside and two led strip lights.

Hi it wasn't that bad really it got me partly through the pandemic. The only real complaint was my back and long wait on materials as I had them delivered at different stages and not all at once.
