1. Base - make sure you have a sturdy and level base in place that meets the minimum required size for your shed.

2. Floor - if your floor comes in multiple parts, follow the instructions to join these together. Ensure you add the HD bearers to bring the floor to the full size.

3. Walls - start adding on your wall panels following the instructions provided. As our sheds are modular, you have flexibility in where you position your doors and windows.

4. Gables (and pent tops/trusses where applicable) - Add your gables and pent tops/trusses (if needed).

5. Roof - Add your roof panels. Be sure to check your instructions as on some of our larger sheds the roof panels need to be pre-assembled.

6. Felt - Add your roofing felt.

7. Bargeboards & Cover Lats - Add your finishing timbers and your shed is complete!

Top tip! Don't forget to seal your windows!
