Need an 8' x 8' shed.

Doesn't need to be anything fancy but will need to last a few years till I get a garage built, and not rot away in 6 months.

The 'tinternet is full of shed companies promising the earth! 🙂

Somewhere Derbyshire/Notts would be ideal as I prefer to support local companies.

Tiger sheds have been good whenever I've used them.

Keter - from costco.

Ours is a couple of years in an ace. Bone dry, well vented, stands square. I don't need to re-treat it unlike my other shed.

I got a Keter recently (for a very keen price on Amazon) and really rate the quality. Worth setting up an alert on HUKD as they pop up on sale at various websites quite regularly!

We've just bought and erected one of these. Really impressed from start to finish

https://www.powersheds.com/shed-size/8x8-garden-sheds/power-pent-shed/?attribute_pa_shed-size=8x8-garden-sheds&attribute_pa_shed-doors=double-door-sheds&attribute_pa_shed-windows=windowless-sheds

Selected a delivery date whe it suited me
Delivered *really* well packed on a single pallet
Good construction
Clear instructions (if you bother to read them, dont'ask how I know this)
Easy for two of us to get it from pallet to completed shed in one day.

We ordered a summerhouse in first lockdown, it arrived a year later (as informed as mega busy), we were charged the price quoted the year before. We think excellent quality, a family business and we’re pleased. A year on and no creaks, shrinkage or movement it was also treated before being erected by the firm. They’re called Chesterfield sheds and on Storforth Lane. Hope this helps.

+1 for Power sheds. Mrs Engineer and I built one in a day and I echo the comments about packaging, delivery etc. It's best to read the instructions regarding unpacking the pallet, though ....
