    Did you have any luck with this?
    Looking to do something similar myself.

    Most of them are a rip off for what they are as they are too lightweight.My father had an 8x12 one that was demolished by a storm a couple of years ago, everything about them is flimsy. Big bucks for a good one. You'd be better off putting down a pad, framing the structure of the shed and cladding it yourself with corrugated sheets.

    In the end I bought steel scrap yard for about €250, treated 3x4 timber side rails and purlins and made the frame ourselves - it helps of course to have a fitter in the family. Got guys in to pour a concrete yard including rebated base for the shed. It'll be 8m x 4m. Getting cladding prices now - about €1800 for standard sheets and going to have it spray foamed inside and board out for about €1000. Versus €4K plus for insulated panels.

    Hello, have you decided yet what sort of shed/bought one already?

    Like the other poster said the kit ones are crap. So unless you got friends/family are tradesmen/builders/handy with tools, the only option is buy steel shed from companies and get them to install. Unfortunately its does cost a lot.

    Here's price from I believe the best steel shed company in the country.

    -snip-

    I'm biased cos I got one of their sheds, but I looked at most of the other companies and they pale in comparison to -snip- sheds.
