As winter approaches, many homeowners turn their attention to preparing their gardens for the colder months. One essential aspect of winter readiness is having a sturdy and reliable storage solution, and this is where a high-quality timber shed from Blackdown Buildings can make all the difference. In this blog post, we’ll explore why investing in a weatherproof timber shed is crucial for winter and how our sheds stand out as the perfect choice for your garden.
Timber Sheds – Weather Resistance Matters
Winter in the UK can be challenging, with heavy rains, strong winds, and freezing temperatures. These conditions can take a toll on your garden equipment, tools, and other belongings stored in a shed. Having a weather-resistant shed is essential to protect your valuables from damage caused by moisture, cold, and even pests.
Strength and Durability
Blackdown Buildings takes pride in manufacturing sheds that are built to last. Our sheds are constructed from high-quality pressure-treated timber, ensuring their longevity and durability. The framework of our sheds is made from substantial 50mm x 75mm timbers for larger buildings and 38mm x 50mm for smaller ones, providing exceptional strength. This robust framework, coupled with pressure-treated timber, means that our sheds can withstand the harshest winter conditions and remain in excellent condition for years to come.
Protection from the Elements
The exterior of our sheds is clad with 19mm x 125mm shiplap, backed by an internal membrane. This cladding not only adds to the shed’s structural integrity but also creates a weatherproof barrier. The inclusion of a green mineral felt roof on apex and pent sheds, as well as corrugated steel on curved roof sheds, ensures that your shed remains dry inside, even during heavy rainfall. This level of protection is essential for safeguarding your garden tools, equipment, and seasonal items throughout the winter.
Reliable Windows
Our sheds feature fixed glass windows that not only let in natural light but also provide a secure barrier against the elements. These windows are designed to keep your timber shed interior well-lit and dry. Even on gloomy winter days, you can easily access your tools and equipment without worrying about dampness or drafts.
Pressure-Treated Timber
All the timber used in our sheds is pressure treated. This treatment process involves impregnating the timber with preservatives, making it highly resistant to decay, rot, and insect damage. As a result, your shed’s structural integrity remains intact, ensuring it continues to protect your belongings effectively, even during the harshest winter conditions.
