Construction & DIY Information
These sheds are designed to be DIY projects, however we also offer a full install service at fixed prices should you prefer someone else to do this for you. Typically a shed of this size would take one of the installers we use *one day*. See shed options for pricing.
DIY Build Overview
The Galvo GVO1508 "Hazy Grey" Garden Shed is designed as a straightforward kitset project for someone with good DIY skills. Wall sheets are joined with rivets, and top and bottom channels are drilled and riveted to form the wall panels. Once all wall and roof panels are assembled, the walls are stood up, drilled, and riveted together, and the roof panels are fixed in the same manner. Flashings are then drilled and riveted to the shed. Finally, the door is made and fitted using the supplied hinges.
If you are using the optional floor kit, the precut runners and floorboards are nailed together with a hammer. For the smoothest build, assemble the floor kit before starting work on the shed structure.
