FAQs

Metal sheds are a great option if you’re planning to use your shed as a workshop or to use it for garden storage. If you’re looking to use your shed as a home office, or spend time in it overnight, then you might prefer something like a garden log cabin.

The advantages of metal sheds are:

  • They provide excellent security - Metal sheds reinforced hinges which assist in preventing forced entry. There are no real points of access except the door which can be secured with a heavy-duty lock.
  • Maintenance free - The amount of time spent on maintaining a metal shed is almost non-existent. Courtesy of galvanised steel, the metal is protected from the elements, preventing the formation of rust.

Very affordable - Metal sheds often represent a cheaper option than the wooden alternative. So, if space is important to you, then metal sheds offer a budget-friendly option.

We suggest that all garden buildings have a base. Depending on what flooring your choose for your shed, a concrete base (or at least pavers) is the best option for a metal shed. The larger your metal shed, the more likely it is to require a concrete slab. This will also help to form a barrier against condensation which, if not protected against, can cause a problem in metal sheds. With a concrete base you can also anchor your shed down and then seal around bolt holes.

Yes, metal sheds can get hot during the summer. However, this can be mitigated with good ventilation and limited direct sunlight. Our BillyOh metal sheds designed for working in feature vents as standard to help with airflow.

If not properly positioned and sealed, a metal shed can leak. But by positioning your metal shed away from damp ground or areas of sitting groundwater, you can help to combat this. All our BillyOh metal sheds feature either apex or pent roofs to allow for adequate water runoff. In addition, you can build your metal shed in an area that gets good sunlight to dry ground moisture. You can also bolt your metal shed to a concrete base and caulk and seal around the base and bolt holes. You can then apply sealant to the underside of your roof along the joins.

Condensation is a common problem in metal sheds, but not which should put you off.

Condensation occurs in a metal shed when the surface temperature inside your shed rises, trapping moisture-rich air. Then, when the outside temperature cools, this vapour forms as water droplets. This is due to metal being a good conductor of heat. These droplets can form on the underside of your metal shed’s roof and around windows (if you have any), causing your shed to ‘sweat’.

The good news is that our BillyOh metal sheds tackle this problem at the source, and all have air vents as standard. This allows for sufficient airflow and temperature regulation even when you’re not using your metal shed. You can also aerate your shed by opening doors, or installing a ground membrane before you build your shed base.

All our BillyOh metal sheds come with assembly instructions. Using the assembly instruction included and with a team of just 2 people and a bit of DIY knowledge you can expect to have your BillyOh building up within a day, or as little as 3-4 hours with some of our smaller buildings.

What makes a good metal shed relies on many things like durability, aesthetics, and price. For example, here are four of our favourites from our BillyOh range:

The Ranger Apex is a great storage solution for any garden, available in a range of size and colour options, to suit your needs. The Ranger also has double sliding doors, gable vents and a foundation kit included giving you a strong and sturdy building with great access and air circulation.

The BillyOh Cargo Pent Shed is ideal for stylish, low maintenance storage which will look great in any garden space. With strong galvanised steel walls it is tough and durable.

The partner apex metal shed comes with Galvanised Steel Panels to keep your building protected from harsh conditions, its windowless design makes it a strong and secure building to protect your belongings.

Steel sheds start at a lower price than most wooden sheds and are ideal for storage or use as workshops. They can be longer lasting and lower maintenance but may not be as aesthetically traditional. They can be secured to a concrete base and offer high levels of security.

However, wooden sheds are more insulated, versatile, and customisable.

Our BillyOh metal sheds are made from hot-dipped galvanised steel sheets. This offers a weather-resistant finish which is also rust- and corrosion-resistant on a sturdy and durable build.

Most metal buildings need surprisingly little maintenance. This is because the metal exterior materials are generally equipped with a protective coating or layer that keeps the metal protected from environmental effects. This layer can sometimes be an additional sheet of a different material, or a layer of galvanisation.

Thanks to this, the amount of maintenance that’s required to keep these sheds in great condition is greatly reduced. We recommend repainting the exterior every five years to keep it looking its best, but not much else is needed other than a spray-down with a hose when it gets dirty. 

Fear of rusting metal puts many people off buying a metal building. But a modern technique and material application mean that the risk of rusting on our metal sheds is now limited. 

This is achieved in a couple of ways, the most widespread being a process called galvanisation. During galvanisation, steel or aluminium is dipped into bath of molten zinc to form a protective outer coating. This coating acts as a barrier for water and oxygen, which can’t then reach the steel, therefore preventing it from rusting. The galvanised layer usually lasts upwards of 35 years, giving you decades of rust-free use of your metal unit.

Weather-Resistant Metal Sheds

Our metal garden sheds are expertly designed to withstand British weather and protect everything you store inside. The galvanised coating on the steel prevents rust, backed by a a long manufacturer's guarantee for your peace of mind. Whether you just want to store your garden tools or your bikes and a lawnmower, these waterproof sheds provide long-lasting protection. With over 25 years of industry experience behind us, we only stock products tested for durability and reliability.

Range of Metal Shed Sizes and Styles

Our extensive collection includes both pent and apex roofs to suit your garden style and height requirements. There are also different colours available, such as heritage green to blend in with plants and trees, or a neutral anthracite grey for a sleek, modern look. There are also multiple sizes which you can choose, depending on how big your garden is and how many items you need to store. Simply click on one of the products above and select a size and colour option from the menu.

Simple Self-Assembly

Weighing a lot less than our wooden shed products, metal storage sheds are easier to assemble - you don't need to be a builder to put it all together! 

We don't offer installation service because our metal garden sheds come in ready-to-assemble panels, easily slotting together with only a few handheld tools. All you have to do is follow the accompanying assembly instructions with your order to install it in your garden.
