Inspect and treat timber buildings for longevity — Burghfield Common
Burghfield Common owners should inspect timber buildings on delivery and at regular intervals, opening doors and checking external cladding, joints and the base for moisture ingress before commencing preservative treatment; treat end grain, exposed cuts and the underside of floor joists. Use a breathable wood preservative suited to exterior timbers, apply two coats to uncovered areas, and keep vegetation trimmed to maintain airflow. Schedule resealing after extreme weather, check fixings for corrosion, and ensure the building sits on a damp-proof, well-drained base to reduce maintenance frequency. For metal sheds buyers, confirm the exact specification and delivery postcode before purchasing.

Delivery, installation and preparation
Delivery options vary by product and postcode. Installation is available on selected garden buildings. Always check the product's base requirements before ordering and make sure there is suitable access to the delivery or installation area.
How do I choose the right size?
Measure the usable garden area and allow space for access, doors, roof overhangs and maintenance. It is usually better to allow some spare internal storage space rather than buying to the exact minimum.
Can installation be arranged?
Installation is available on selected buildings. Availability depends on the product, postcode and base conditions, so our team will confirm the details before the order proceeds.
Do I need a base?
Yes. Every shed or garden building should stand on a firm, level and well-drained base. The base is the foundation underneath the building; it is different from the internal floor supplied with some sheds. Common options include concrete, paving slabs, timber frames and plastic base systems. Shop shed bases →
Do I need planning permission?
Many garden buildings in England can be installed under permitted development rights, subject to height, position and coverage limits. A key rule is that a building within 2 metres of a boundary is generally limited to 2.5 metres overall height. Listed buildings, flats and some restricted or designated properties need extra checks.
