Evening All,

Just wondering if anyone has had a brick built shed recently and how much it cost.

I don't have a garage, can't store the bikes or stuff indoors so thinking a decent brick shed with some good security would be ideal. Got plenty of room on the side of the garden for a 8' x 6' shed.

Anything I should consider instead or anything I should make sure I get?

Cheers,
Mart

Lol, I saw the 'rate my brickie' thread but didn't read all of it.

I think I'll have a read for tips on finding a good brickie...

Thats what I am pricing up in materials

Built mine from reclaimed bricks & slates from crappy extension I knocked down & left over timbers from new roof 🙂 just had to pay out for some custom made doors. It's great - not quite a garage but enough space for plenty of bikes.

If you took your time, and used the likes of gumtree and freegle, you could get a whole load of concrete block or bricks, whichever you are using, for a lot cheaper than buying new. Doesn't really matter if they don't match if you then render or rough cast.

Buy yourself a second hand cement mixer, you'll sell it for probably the same as to paid for it post build.
