Actually, this one doesn't look bad:- http://www.tigersheds.com/product_detail.asp?prod=7 Not Presure treated, but "THIS SHIPLAP APEX SHED features thick tongue and grooved floorboard in the floor and roof sections and contains NO cheap sheet materials such as OSB or chipboard – beware...

Thanks big-all, 7 years isn't so bad, I was hoping for a bit longer, maybe I will look at cost of presure treated, any thoughts on cot & where to get? Steve

Yeah, I was looking at the http://www.gardenbuildingsdirect.co.uk/Wooden-Sheds/BillyOh-Lincoln-Tongue-and-Groove-Apex-8-x-6#reviews-container BillyOh Lincoln Tongue and Groove Apex either 8x6 or 10 x 6, it doesn't say that much about the floor & roof, does any one know how good these are...

As far as the base goes, I also found 'Hawklok. see:- http://www.taylorsgardenbuildings.co.uk/store/customer/product.php?productid=20122#main%20picture Not a particularly cheap option, but light weight & the fact that its interlocking should make it strong. I might also look into how much it...

Hi, I am after getting a shed, probably going to go for wodden, but waht type, I am looking at Apex Tongue & Groove (8 x 6) rather than the Overlap sheds, i think it might be more robust? There is also a question on what to stand it on, I was thinging paving slabs, but some of them you can get...

Hi, I have just moved house and got myself a washing line spike from Argos (for my rotart lashing line), thing is, I am having problems getting it into the ground! I am using a club hammer and a piece of wood between the club hammer and the spike, but its just not moving! It is a fair way down...

Thanks, I did look at that floor board, but the one I have put a link to is on offer if you buy 10 or more boards and its P5 grade (whatever that means) and water resistant, with the green top, I thought it might be extra water resistant, not that that matters I don't think!? Also, i was...

I have just moved into a new house and am thinking about putting flooring in the loft, I was thinking of using:- http://www.wickes.co.uk/invt/164516?WT.ac=SP030005 At 2.4 m long I guess thet will be heavy, so I plan to measure the gap between the joist and cut the boards so that the can be...

Thanks, I guess you mean:- http://www.screwfix.com/search.do;jsessionid=F1YOMVW2WX4IUCSTHZPCFFA?_dyncharset=UTF-8&fh_search=sesi I wasn't sure if I needed a 'Clean supply' going to at least one tap (not sure, but I thought that you were supposed to have a 'Drinking Water tap' direct from...

Hi, I was just wondering if I could \ should put some kind of Lime scale deteriator on my cold water supply, to stop everything getting clogged with lime scale, I have a Lime scale eater on the boiler, should I put something like that on the water mains or should I use something like:-...

Thanks..Will keep that in mind

thanks mikeyd and of course foxhole for your help & answers

Thanks Mikeyd, I guess I shouldn't fix the the UPVC (as you say) because 1) It might not be a very good fixing 2) If I decide to remove the roller blinds at a later date it will obviously leave holes in the UPVC - not a good idea. Why screw them up to the top of the window reveal, rather...

Thanks, I might get my Poles from Wickes (there prices are fairly good), I have some stuff to return that I don't have a receipt for and they usually allow you to exchange goods if you don't have a receipt, so sort of makes sense to get it all from there. Steve

Thanks for that, I guess I will find out when I try, I have used the lf drive drywall fixings before and the head of them are quite big (might not be covered by the roller blind bracket) unless they do them in different sizes no? Steve

Hi, I am moving into my newly built house in just over a week (yipee), I already have a house, so have some DIY knowledge (limited).So my questions are:- Roller Blinds, I am looking to fit these inside the windows, the windows are UPVC Double glazed, do i fix the bracket to the white plastic...

Thanks for that, I did some more searching on the web and it does say that real wood is more prone to expansion etc, there were quite a few positives for engineered, so I think I will go for that. Thanks for all your advise, much appreciated. :D Steve

I guess the next question is...engineered wood or real wood, I think the engineered wood is going to cost @ £40 per m sq and real @ £50, so for 30 sq m @£300 difference, I have had a look on the web and there seem to be advantages for both. Quote:- Engineered wood, too, is real wood. It is...

Very True, but I know that I won't do a good job, and besides, my wife would never let me or divorce me :D I guess its a case of you get what you pay for, you pay nothing and do it yourself and it might look OK, but get it done professionally and it will look perfect and might even last...
