When it comes to adding extra storage space to your backyard, you might find yourself searching online for “cheap storage sheds for sale”. Two of the most popular choices are timber or steel sheds, and you may not be sure which is the best option for your application.

In this blog, we will compare these two popular options, focusing on cost, durability and maintenance to help you make the best choice.

Comparing Costs

Both steel and timber storage sheds offer a cost-effective solution to your storage requirements when compared to building a brick-and-mortar structure. Prices vary according to the size of the shed. Here is a list of some of our most popular products to provide you with an idea of price points:

So, as you can see from just some of our available options, there are cost-effective storage solutions to suit all needs and budgets.

Durability & Maintenance Matters

Steel sheds are known to be robust and durable. They are built to withstand harsh weather conditions, pests, fire and more. They require very little maintenance to keep them looking good as new for years to come.

While timber sheds take the prize for aesthetic appeal, they will require more work to ensure they are long-lasting. They will require some maintenance in the form of staining, sealing, or repainting to ensure they keep their good looks and are protected from moisture, rot and insects.

On the plus side, timber structures offer more versatility in design and are naturally better at ventilation and preventing interior condensation, as seen in steel sheds.
