Anyone recommend a good shed company ?

I'm after supply and fit, good quality, good value / service.

Have you considered building your own Robert? I do, quite enjoy doing it.

Indeed :) even any replacement shed will mean me breaking down the old one, loading skip etc - why do everything when you're already doing plenty ;)

Last year we had an 8' x 6' shed installed. It cost ~ £400 from a specialist company near Marks Tey in Essex.

I assume you are looking for a supplier nearer to home. I would avoid anything sold in B&Q; in my opinion the quality in general is usually poor, and ultimately will turn out to be poor value for money.

Hi Barry, thanks for the info.
I'm in the south east of London so Essex not a million miles away.
Was the £400 for supply and fit and are you happy with the shed quality and install ?

The company is called

Shed Centre
Flyover Nurseries,
Coggeshall Road
Marks Tey CO6 1LJ

shedcentre@btinternet.com
www.shedcentremarkstey.co.uk

Having just dug out the invoice, I see that the total cost including delivery and erection was £544, but that included 5 off 6' floor bearers (to lift the floor and provide a gap between the floor and the concrete base), and the use of heavy duty felt for the roof.

We are very happy with both the quality shed and the professionalism of the installation team.

yes I bought a shed last year from these guys . beautifully built . there is so much trash around . shiplap made and great roof with decent felt

the only fly in the ointment was they put it up while I was not there . can you believe at 7.15 am by climbing over the fence !!

apart from that its great and I hope to get another later this year for another place

Yes, shiplap construction is best. That is what I chose.
