Inspect and treat a timber building properly — Burscough
Burscough homeowners should start an inspection by checking timber ends, floor joists and areas where water can sit near the base; begin by locating rot, insect holes and raised damp close to the groundboards. For treatment, use preservative on cut ends and the lower 150mm of external cladding, and ensure ventilation gaps under eaves and between floorboards to keep timbers dry. Plan periodic re-coating every few years, tighten fixings after heavy weather, and consider a breathable membrane and raised bearers on a firm base to avoid trapped moisture and extend service life. 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.
