  • Thanks, doesn't need to be rebuilt repeatedly, just want to be able to dismantle it and take it with me when I move out if/when I finally manage to buy my own place.

  • Where's the best place to get either ply or osb cut to size, I think I'm going to need to panel the inside of my shed so I can better store stuff inside it.

  • B&Q. Or get a full sheet(s) delivered and I'll bring my track saw over

  • Old shed that came with the house + elderflower / wisteria tree

  • Selling my place in New Cross (Zone 2).

    Bike shed can be included!
    Fits 10+ bikes & also has power so you can have CCTV.

    I also lease a garage across the road that I can be transferred. Fits multiple motorbikes & cargo bikes.

  • Garden Office / storage is from Expandakabin.

    It's 3.3mx2.1m galvanised, insulated, double glazed uPVC window, electricity switchboard (current value £4,560 new).

    It can be fully dismantled, biggest piece being the roof.

    My house buyers do not wish to pay for it so I will sell it separately.

  • Doors on, roof felted, tanked inside and out.

    Going to wire the lights tomorrow and put plaster board on the ceiling

  • What’s the plan here?
    Looks like pretty much what I want to do when we move, for less precious bikes and a workshop space. However I am fairly clueless

  • Pretty much, Workshop in one half, bikes in the other half

  • Had the floor screed on Monday, then we put up Plasterboard, taped and jointed, just need to sand back, lights installed and battens for cladding on the front wall.

  • Holy thread dredge! How has the Power Shed faired over the past few years @TM? Debating a 12 x 8 with a few modifications as they've got 10% off currently...

  • I am selling my shed if anyone is after a insulated garden office / fancy bike storage?

    I am selling my house in New Cross SE14 and the buyers are not interested in keeping it.

    It's a 3.3m long × 2.3m wide Expandakabin which I purchased brand new in 2020 as this was the best option / value for money. It has a proper door with a lock, a double glazed window and I also got the electrician to fit a switchboard/plugs/a LED batten.

    It came flat packed, the largest single piece being the roof. Fitted through my side gate and only took 3h to put together.
    Happy for the buyer to also take the bespoke base.

    More info here:
    https://expandakabin.co.uk/
    https://www.extraspace.co.uk/shop/produc­t/expandakabin-3m/

    These are priced new at £4,007+VAT, that's £4,808.40 + delivery (which is £200+VAT) - then you have a the electric pack + base.

    Anyway, come to New Cross, dismantle it and take it away for for £POA.

  • How is this now? Looks brilliant. I did something similar but yours seems better executed/planned out. Got the building weather tight and then progress ground to a halt as other work took priority so has become dumping ground that needs sorting. What did you do about the edges around the doors and the cladding?

  • Same, works have slowed!

    Just had ceiling skimmed as the plasterboard we put up was rubbish and we've just sealed the concrete floor.

    Can't find any wooden angle that's big enough to the edges around the door, so I think we'll put some steel angle on it.

    Let's see yours!

  • Update on the inside

  • Yeah I've been trying to figure out what to do around the edges (don't have an actual door yet), wondering whether to clad around the edge and then fit the door within the new smaller doorway formed by the cladding if that makes sense. But not sure if that will be bit fucked.

    Cladding has started to grey now. Think main difference for yours is garden is sloped so it's raised up, I inulated the outside and roof is SIP rather than timber. Been pretty down about it all recently tbh, as time goes on and it's still not done I just see all the things I would of done quite a bit differently if I could start again. But once got power and space in there will be good I'm sure will feel more positive

  • Good job on keeping it clear! I can barely move in mine as shit everywhere, which of course makes harder to get things done 🙃

  • Ceiling painted, lights 2nd fixed and floor painted with polyurethane.

    Now need to make work bench and put steel conduit in for sockets

  • Good work. Is the rear wall painted black now effectively the property / fence line and the presumably secure door how you access the shed from the street or have I got that wrong?

  • It is effectively the property / fence line, but it doesn't go onto the street. It goes onto off street parking for us and our neighbours, behind the house.
