Buy Sheds Direct Review – Are Buy Sheds Direct Any Good?

Overview

Buy Sheds Direct are owned by group Taylored Investments Ltd. They sell a large number of sheds and garden buildings from several brands and manufacturers.

They have been selling garden buildings online since 2005 so really do know what they’re doing! As well as selling sheds they offer installation on many products in case you don’t want to install the shed yourself.

They put price as highly important, offering a price match service if you can find the price of that shed cheaper elsewhere. This provides you with a lot of re-assurance and confidence that you will be getting the best value shed you can buy.

A lot of their sheds are pressure treated. Pressure treated sheds often come with a longer guarantee as the timber is treated in a way that it is much less likely to rot. All of the pressure treated sheds on Buy Sheds Direct come with a 15 year guarantee.

They also have a large range of log cabins which include their popular log cabins such as the Forest Hardwood and Forest Chiltern. A lot of their log cabins has a 2-3 week delivery time which is quicker than other log cabin suppliers.

We enjoyed researching Buy Sheds Direct – our review of this company left us with the peace of mind that we would be happy to recommend their products and services.

Product range

Sheds:

Of course they offer wooden, metal and plastic sheds from various brands. If we review their wooden sheds in particular, they sell predominantly from manufacturers Forest and Shires. Many of their sheds are overlap in dip treated or pressure treated versions. These allow them to be very competitive on price in the shed market rather than focusing on the more expensive tongue and groove sheds. They do have tongue and groove but the range isn’t as strong as the overlap products. Of the sheds we reviewed, we particularly thought the Forest Overlap Pent Wooden Shed was worth looking at, as well as the Republic Ultimate Heavy Duty Shed for those looking for something a little more premium.

 

Log cabins:

They have a very large range of log cabins, from Palmako, Forest and Shire. With such a large range there should be a log cabin in there for you. Prices are very reasonable and delivery is quick. Of the three we feel the quality of the Forest log cabin (e.g. the Forest Melbury Log Cabin) is slightly better for the money.

 

Pricing

As mentioned a few times in this review, the pricing on Buy Sheds Direct is very competitive and is difficult to beat on other websites.

 

Where to find offers and promotions

Buy Sheds Direct often have promotions and discount codes – these are very visible on their front page.
