FAQs
It depends on your budget and what you are storing. Overlap is highly cost-effective and provides excellent natural water runoff, making it perfect for budget-friendly everyday storage. Tongue and groove (T&G) uses thicker, interlocking boards for maximum structural rigidity and a tighter weather seal, making it better suited for heavier use or DIY workshops.
Yes, you'll need a solid, level base — not grass or soil. This is crucial to keep your shed stable and dry. Our wooden sheds come with raised, treated floor bearers, so as long as the base is firm and drains well, you're good to go.
Probably not. As long as your shed is on the back garden (not the front), takes up less than half your garden space, and isn't over 2.5 metres tall at the eaves (ours aren't), you shouldn't need planning permission. However, some areas have their own rules and there are some exceptions. Check out our guide to planning permission for sheds to gain a full understanding.
Why Choose an Overlap Wooden Shed?
If you need secure garden storage quickly and on a budget, our overlap sheds are the ideal solution. Unlike premium interlocking designs, overlap cladding is constructed by layering 7mm horizontal timber boards over one another, nailed securely to a robust internal frame.
This traditional construction method provides two fantastic benefits for the budget-conscious gardener:
Highly Cost-Effective: Because the manufacturing process is simpler and uses less timber volume, we can pass those savings directly to you. It is the most affordable way to get a high-quality, UK-manufactured shed into your garden.
Excellent Water Runoff: The overlapping design mimics traditional roof tiles. When the British rain hits the walls, the angled boards allow the water to cascade smoothly down the outside of the building, keeping your tools and equipment dry inside.
Purpose-Built Overlap Storage
We keep our overlap collection highly focused so we can offer you the best possible price. Our current range caters to the two most common garden storage needs: a full-size Pent shed designed to sit neatly against boundary walls for everyday household storage, and a compact, lower-height Apex mini shed that acts as the perfect secure lockup for bikes and tools.
While these models represent the most budget-friendly entry point into our wider wooden sheds collection, we don't cut corners on the foundations. To ensure your new shed stands up to the elements, we reinforce both models with heavy-duty 11mm tongue and groove floors and roofs as standard—a massive structural upgrade over the fragile OSB or chipboard used by many competitors.
Easy Assembly & Fast Delivery
Our overlap garden buildings are designed with the DIY-er in mind. They arrive with pre-cut timber panels, green mineral roof felt, and comprehensive instructions, making assembly a straightforward weekend project for you and a friend.
Please note: To maintain the structural integrity and weather resistance of your overlap shed, it must be built on a firm, 100% level base and treated with a high-quality wood preserver shortly after installation.
