An apex roof shed is one of the most popular and traditional styles of garden building. The timeless, homely silhouette is a favourite in the UK and brings a classic, cosy feeling to your garden while still delivering great storage space and functionality.
For a timeless look that complements any garden, think about investing in a wooden apex shed. With a roof made from two panels that slope to either side of your shed’s door, you’ll have more than adequate rainwater runoff to keep your shed and its contents dry. And with options to add a guttering system, or with a water butt, you could even reuse this rainwater throughout your garden. If you’re looking for a metal apex shed or even a plastic apex shed, you’ll find them all here at Garden Buildings Direct.
With the highest point of an apex shed in the middle, you’ll have plenty of headroom to work in your workshop, or to store taller items. So if you’re after a timeless style made from high-quality materials and built to last, look no further than a BillyOh apex shed.

FAQs
An apex shed refers to the style of roof. An apex shed roof is made from two sloping panels that fall away to either side of the door (or face) of the shed and meet at their highest point in the middle. Apex sheds are great for those who need extra headroom to work or store items and who prefer a traditional aesthetic.
Apex, reverse apex, and pent roof sheds are all built to allow for sufficient water runoff to keep your shed and its contents dry and protected against rot and decay for years to come. The biggest difference between an apex and pent roof is stylistic. A pent roof may work better for those who want a more modern aesthetic or who aren’t bothered by the highest point of the shed being at the front.
Our BillyOh apex sheds come supplied with felt. Simply affix with nails to each sloping panel of the apex, leaving a 50mm overhang. Then, take a thin strip to overlap each panel by 150mm and cover the apex at its highest point along the length of the shed. Affix with nails and felt adhesive to a tight seal.
