Aftercare

Keep your shed looking new by using exterior woodcare products. Always check manufacturer's instructions for guidance on application.

Hints & tips

The shed may come with different length roof battens so always double-check you're working with the right one.

Safety

Be careful when lifiting the panels into place. It's a good idea to wear gloves when handling wood to avoid splinters.
