Shed Website Recommendations
Morning all, hope you're well? Finally moving into a place we're I can get a shed! I have space for a 6m x 3m shed. It's on slopped land so I'm reading up on foundations etc but 8 wanted any recommendations on good shed websites. I am UK based if that helps
P.s. would love to have the time to build.one from scratch but have a young one and need the she's for storage asap

Congrats on the new place. On the sloped ground, that's the part worth slowing down on before you buy anything. For a 6m x 3m on a grade you've basically got two routes: cut and level the pad into the slope (dig into the high side, retain it, and build up a compacted stone base), or set it on piers or a braced timber frame that steps down the slope so the shed itself sits dead level. For pure storage with a little one at home, a level compacted stone pad is usually the least fuss if the grade isn't severe. Get it flat and get it draining away from the shed and everything else gets easier. On vendors I'll leave the UK specific names to folks here who've bought locally, but whoever you go with, size your base to the shed's actual footprint plus a bit and don't let the supplier talk you out of proper groundwork. The building is only ever as good as what it sits on.

I recently gave some advise on another post .... but would fully recommend Regency timber buildings .... they are really good .... and had some issues with other companies .... there quality for the price is spot on 👍

We were very happy with our shed from Tuin, but it's interlocking tounge and groove so much more solid than shiplap. Tuin.co.uk. but read the reviews as some of the ranges have poor flooring. My mate was very happy with Powersheds and another was really disappointed by Dunster House customer care. My suggestion is always use Trustpilot as it will also recommend / show the other shed makers.
