Rustic Timber
Overlap
1 Year Timber Paint
10mm approx
Our entry level timber selection. Rustic timber sheds are comprised of all natively sourced timber, hand picked by our expert crafstmen to ensure the best quality. Each board is 10mm thick approx and retaints the rustic, rough finish of traditional timber, giving a raw, natural look.
Rustic sheds are sold pre-treated with a water based, non toxic timber treatment, which is good for approximately one year, after which you will have to re-treat your shed approximately every 12 months. Timber treatment paint is available from all good hardware stores in a range of colours to suit your taste.
Note: Rustic sheds are not designed to be water proof, rather they are designed to be weather proof. As such, with constant exposure to rain over several days, the timber may become saturated, which may lead to the interior walls of the shed becoming moist or damp to the touch. This is in no way harmful to the timber and, given a spell of dry weather, the shed will dry out with no adverse effects.
Rustic sheds are not recommended for the storage of fabrics, soft furnishings or anything that may be adversely affected by dampness.
Rustic sheds are recommended for the storage of tools, lawnmowers, wheelbarrows, paint and other items which would not be adversely affected by occasional damp conditions
It is highly recommended that a coat of sealant, such as Thompsons Water Seal, be applied to seal the shed after installation to prevent water seeping into your shed. Note that application of sealant may affect future painting of the shed
T&G, Tanillised Timber
Interlocking
7 Year Chemical Treatment
22mm approx
Built of sturdy, 22mm, kiln dried timbers, our tongued and grooved, tanillized shed is ideal for all purpose garden storage. Tongued and Grooved timbers slot together to form the sides of your shed, giving a smooth, clean finish that will stand the test of time.
In addition to the quality and strength provided by their tongued and grooved construction, the external timbers of the tanilised tongued and grooved shed are also treated with Tanillith E, which protects the timber against the effects of weathering. This pressure treatment eliminates the need for the outside of the shed to be weather coated yearly, reducing maintenance a minimum.
Pressure treated sheds are designed to survive the effects of weather approximately 7 years with no need to paint the timber before that time, except to improve the colour/appearance of the shed.
