Oren 6′ x 8′ Shiplap Alcester Summer House Details

Sheds.co.uk
£959.00

The beautiful Oren 6′ x 8′ Shiplap Alcester Summer House offers a serene retreat that you have been seeking. Its compact and functional design makes it ideal for smaller garden spaces and provides a cozy spot for you to unwind in the cool shade. The high-quality full pane windows and doors also make this structure suitable for use as a quaint potting shed or a charming traditional garden storage unit. It offers complete flexibility, enabling you to place the doors and windows on either side.

All Oren Summer Houses are crafted from sturdy 12mm thick shiplap tongue and groove timber, including the floor and roof, ensuring enhanced durability and strength. The robust framing of the structure has been elegantly rounded at each corner, adding a touch of sophistication to its appearance.

This Summer House is equipped with toughened safety glass as a standard feature and includes a Premium High Performance Felt with a special polyester backing, guaranteeing a longer lifespan and resistance to tearing. The tongue and groove construction throughout the building further enhances its durability.

Shiplap cladding boasts a unique design feature with a small channel at the top of each board, facilitating the quick runoff of water during rainy spells and aiding in faster drying, preventing water damage.

The presence of toughened glass in all windows elevates the durability and thermal resilience of the structure, making it 500% more resistant to heat and shock compared to regular glass. The galvanised ironmongery, including hinges, turn buttons, and door pulls, ensures longevity by minimizing rust and oxidation.

The Premium High Performance Felt used in this Summer House is waterproof, featuring a special polyester backing that prevents rippling and tearing. The felt is coated with bitumen (asphalt) to repel water while allowing breathability, protecting the structure from the elements.

FAQs

The size of the shed depends on what you plan to store or use it for. Measure the items you plan to store and consider any additional space for moving around or future storage needs. Common sizes range from small (6×8 feet) for basic storage to large (12×24 feet) for workshops or extensive storage.
Sheds are typically made from wood, metal, or plastic. Wood is aesthetically pleasing and customizable but requires more maintenance. Metal sheds are durable and secure but can be prone to rust. Plastic sheds are low-maintenance and easy to assemble but may not be as sturdy as wood or metal.

Permit requirements vary by location. Check with your local building department or zoning office. Typically, small sheds (under 120 square feet) may not require a permit, but larger ones or those with electrical installations often do.

A solid foundation is crucial for stability and longevity. Options include concrete slabs, gravel bases, or wooden platforms. Choose a foundation based on your shed’s size, material, and the ground conditions of your site.
Look for sheds with features like weather-resistant materials, proper sealing, and robust construction. Ensure the shed has a good roof overhang, proper drainage, and secure locking mechanisms to protect against theft and weather damage.
Assembly time depends on the size and complexity of the shed. Small, simple sheds can be assembled in a few hours, while larger or more complex sheds may take a full day or more. Professional installation is also an option for those who prefer not to DIY.
Maintenance depends on the material. Wooden sheds need periodic painting or staining and checking for rot or pests. Metal sheds may need rust prevention treatments. Plastic sheds require minimal maintenance, typically just cleaning as needed.
Moving a shed is possible but can be challenging, especially for larger structures. It’s easier to move a smaller shed if it has a solid base. Consider the logistics and potential costs of moving before installation. If moving is likely, a portable shed might be a better option.
Many sheds come with detailed assembly instructions, making them suitable for DIY installation, especially smaller models. However, larger or more complex sheds may require professional installation to ensure they are properly and safely assembled. Assess your skill level, available tools, and the complexity of the shed before deciding.
