About this product
This Mercia wooden overlap shed stores lawnmowers, wheelbarrows and garden furniture securely. It's made from quality UK timber with overlapping boards that help rainwater drain away. The apex roof design provides headroom inside while you organise your equipment. Double hinged doors open wide enough to move larger items in and out easily. Four shatterproof styrene windows let natural light in and you can position them on either side to suit your garden layout.
The overlap construction moves naturally with seasonal changes and keeps your belongings protected. A timber floor panel is included to support heavier equipment. The windows won't break or yellow like glass would. With annual treatment, the timber resists rot and stays weatherproof. Assembly takes two people and you'll need a hard, level base like concrete or paving. You'll have spacious, secure storage that keeps your garden equipment accessible and protected year-round.

Customers Say
The shed offers a good size and is easy to assemble, but many users report poor quality materials and construction issues, leading to disappointment. Some found it satisfactory for storage but not for long-term use.

looks good
not as good as expected the panels that has the window cut outs one side fitted the other side I had alter the size of the opening as the perspex was too small to fit. The doors was also bigger then the opening. After all this the shed is a nice size and will do me service well

Shed
Bought the 12x8 shed and it’s more like a 10x8 once it’s built, not overly impressed with the build quality based on the price they charge for it and the door height is stupidly low compared to the rest of the shed height.

Good quality shed
My husband is happy with this shed. Good quality and easy to put together with 2 people. Decent size for everything to fit. Would recommend.
Sara
Shed is preassembled poorly
Size is good but nails sticking out and holes
Steve, Manchester
Was straight forward to put together
Very good product Had screws left over that hadn't been opened
Gaz, Welwyn Garden City
Ok-ish
Had to make adjustments for it to fit together. A few splits in the wood and nails not put in properly. Needs to have more care when they put it together at the manufacturers. Not really worth the cost of it.
David, London
Not worth the money
Absolutely disgusted with how much I paid, the shed would not go up properly due to the wood warped everywhere, not worth the money, very disappointed
Chrissy, Milton Keynes
Very poor quality for the price
The wood I very poor quality it’s so thin the floor is like paper i had to buy extra wood to put on top! Not to mention the screws they give you to put shed together are to short !! STAY CLEAR!!

Not great quality
It looks great now we’ve painted it and brought an extra floor for it as the one supplied is so thin and bouncy. Arrived on time and communication good. But quite a few of the shiplaps were so bent there are huge gaps and the instructions aren’t all that clear tbh. But once up and adapted and made stronger it’s ok. If you’re not great with DIY and making your own adaptations to make it stronger don’t buy

Hello Chris N,
I have spoken to the supplier and they have advised -
Yes all instructions are provided to build this shed.
There are also videos online to help assist.
The window side panels can only be positioned in the sides of the shed and not at the front.
The cladding is overlap. Which is not shiplap.
I hope this helps
Thank you for using Q&A
Hi Jo,
No, we don't construct the shed it's kerbside delivery only, we advise 2 people required for assembly.
Thank you for contacting Q & A
Yes. It mainly comes in sections but you do have to build it yourself.
Hi Natasha,
There is a solid wood floor included with the shed, it is recommended that you assemble this on a strong, flat base (not included).
Thanks for using Argos Q&A

Thanks for using Argos Q & A
Hi Smudge,
I've had a look at this and I can advise that this shed has a solid sheet roof & floor. As that is the case there are no panels.
Hope this helps!

The small print
All sheds need to be placed and secured on a base; this can be concrete, patio slabs or wood. Putting your shed directly on the ground wouldn't be safe and would decrease the lifespan of your shed.
