    Adding a ply lining to a metal shed

    I have a metal shed (on a concrete hard standing) that I use to store a couple of motorbikes. There is no condensation or anything like tat but it is quite damp and the bikes get a little 'mouldy' over winter. Someone suggested lining the shed with ply and I'm just beginning to look at this...

    Difference between a domestic and 'industrial' dehumidifier

    I have a low end domestic electric dehumidifier (probably cheaper end but I've not got the specs to hand). It does well at keeping humidity in the shed down and drying closthes! Recently we have noticed so saturated wood and rafters between the kitchen and our undercroft. I can't see any...
