What materials are used to make small sheds?

The small storage sheds sold at Buy Sheds Direct are made from wood, metal, or plastic. Wood is the most common material used in manufacturing small garden sheds. Many buyers prefer metal though because of its durability and reduced maintenance requirements. Plastic (usually high-impact polycarbonate) is also becoming increasingly popular, due to its lightweight and ease of assembly.

Sizes of our small garden sheds vary between 5’x4’ up to 10’x6’. The four most popular sizes of small sheds for sale from the Buy Sheds Direct selection of over 30 small sizes are 6'x4', 7'x5', and 8'x6''.

Facts and overview of our range

A variety of roofing styles are available when you buy from our small sheds range. Choose from our most popular apex and pent styles or opt for the more niche reverse apex, flat, or curved roofing styles.

For small wooden sheds, our most popular cladding option is shiplap tongue and groove, with overlap cladding also being a frequent choice. Our tongue and groove cladding costs more, but the cladding solution is of even higher quality than shiplap or overlap. If you like the thought of interlocking logs, we have a couple of log cabins available (click here to view one), these are also of absolute top-quality and made from 28mm thick logs.

With small wooden sheds there are three options for timber treatment, these are:

  1. Dip treated – these are dipped in preservative, so only the outside of the wood is treated. Requiring annual retreatment, these small garden sheds have a guarantee of either one or ten years. View our timber treatment products here
  2. Pressure treated – these are deep treated under pressure with wood preservative. Our Forest Garden small sheds have a twenty five year guarantee within the cost
