DIY STORAGE SHED GARAGE
Wooden Storage Shed Plans | Build A Wooden Storage Shed From Plan
When storage becomes a problem with the scarcely enough room to put the car in the garage and every drawer and cupboard in the house full to the brim then perhaps it’s time to start thinking about creating some storage space.
A wooden storage shed is an ideal solution and with a decent set of plans it’s an ideal DIY project for the summer.
Your first purchase should be a good set of wooden storage shed plans; these are easy enough to find online. These sets o f plans will have many different designs for you to choose from though the required floor space will affect your choice somewhat.
Having decided on the type of storage shed that you would like to build and also the site you will need to find out if planning permission is needed, building codes can vary from area to area so it’s better to check than to go ahead and build only to be told to take it down again.
Knowing where you intend to build along with the information on your storage shed plans should be enough to satisfy most planning officials. If applicable you may need to consult with your local tenants association.
Assuming no problems with the above then you can order your materials from your local supplier; your plans should have a breakdown of all wood lengths, fittings and fixtures. Some timber merchants will cut some or all of your wood to size.
While waiting for your materials to arrive you can prepare the base or foundation. A firm and level base will add years to the life of your shed and allow the smooth operation of doors and windows.
You have a choice when it comes down to choosing your foundation between pier and beam, concrete slab, and treated timber runners. I once used concrete fence posts from the local demolition yard and they work quite well as long as you remember to take into account any tapering.
Using your wooden shed storage plans you can now begin your build by working your way through the set stages.
