Demolishing An Old Shed - New Shed Project Part 1 

Really interested in this one Keith, as it'll be our next project in the Spring. Loved the pic of Rhia and Dylan admiring the sunset together. Cheers,

I remember waching the first shed being built years ago, and it was one of my favourite series. It is great to see how both your work and quality of the content has positively evolved throughout the time. Looking forward to seing a Shed 2.0 being built and all the best to you and your family!

Dude. Get your brother a belt. You can tell him the world requested it. ;)

I’m dismantling a shed tomorrow,you’ve definitely made me feel capable do do the task.cheers man.👍

Looks like you’re making great progress and Dylan approval is vital.

Really interesting thinking of replacing my old 10x8 shed with a lean to custom workshop into the back wall of my garage. I’m thinking of using some sort of plastic cladding for the outer walls to reduce maintenance and then fill the walls with kingspan. The biggest issue is what to use for the cladding. Great video mate .

I wanted a hammock for years Keith and the wife went and bought me one last year. Wish I’d done it sooner. Don’t put it off any longer 👍

"Here's Keith!" Dylan sighting! The hammock scene! Your brother's butt! The sunset! This video had it all!

Nice progress! Wasn’t expecting the bum shot. Too funny. 🤣 Cheers! 🍻👍🏻😊

Go fund page for a belt for Allan? Save some time on editing. Always enjoyable Keith.

Good job!

It reminds me of when you built your first worshop and these videos are the first ones I saw from you and so I started watching you. It's still my favorite and I've watched them more than once. I look forward to seeing your next video about the shed, I really enjoy it and of course you will do an excellent job as always !!!!!!!

Great demolition video. Thanks for sharing. You enjoyed demolishing the shed and I think many of the viewers enjoyed watching this video. At least I did. The rural view is really nice. Hopefully it stays that way "forever".

Good video ,thanks

I went through a process exactly like this a month ago when me and my dad demolished some sort of a garden shed that was built 50 years ago and then we built a pergola to replace that shed. I can tell that demolishing that old building was much tiring and frustrating than building and designing the pergola :)

The skies in eastern England - very big and dramatic. If your house has these views its best to maximise them. Good choices Keith and Rhea.

I don't think I could have resisted the temptation to go buy a saw.

Great decision on moving the shed & that old shed definitely was past it's best! Glad to see some new footage Keith

I was about to watch your other video which was on fast play. You mentioned “That’s if you don’t want to watch the video in 7 parts”. So here I am!. Really enjoying the project👍

More Dylan!! Love the project and looking forward to seeing the progress! Your projects are the highlight of my Friday's!

Top work from a fellow Norfolk resident 👍

Amazing that she'd lasted as long as it did... Looking forward to the next one. 👍🏾

Am excited to watch your progress. You have a nice little piece of property. As always, thanks for sharing your ventures with us. USA

I also enjoy the first shed build project you did way back when Inspired me to build my own shed Workshop now need to remove my old shed may rebuild & link it to the new shed so will looking forward to seeing you new shed project thanks

The editing on this is gold! Looking forward to this series!

Love the Photoshop of you in the hammock 😂 excited for part 2

Looking forward to this shed!

Love the 'bum' sign!

Look forward to shed build and in a few years time the greenhouse build 😁👍

Looks like alot of work...

Love a bit of demolition. Looking forward to the build.

Thanks for the video. Given your in the UK and the weather we get, maybe consider adding a bit of a cantilever roof / canopy over part of your sitting area, a place to hide from the rain if a shower comes over. Just an idea . Good luck..

Nice one Keith, looking forward to the build.... Watching I thought...What a fab greenhouse, loads of space for Tomatoes, Cucumbers, Peppers and Chillies .... oh well, you had good reason to remove. 👍 Cheers Paul

Seeing that this will be your second shed build, we should call you Keith Two Sheds Jackson 🤣😂🤣😂

Those flint nodules by the greenhouse are cool!

Build a hammock stand! I made one for my balcony out of 2x6s and 2x4s and I love it.

That was fun!

Fun project.

Looks like a fun project.

Love the old shed

Another interesting project to look forward to.

Love it mate.

Very cool yard. You may or may not have been there long enough to know, but hopefully with all the farm fields, they do not spray too many chemicals that then blow over into your yard.

great series , going to love watching these videos

Great progress for just a couple of days! Well done. Around here I have seen people tie off some of the timbers or just right at the peak at the top if it has one, and attach it to a pickup truck or tractor and pull forward to bring the whole shed down to the ground. If the recip saw doesn't appeal. Also, pre-built sheds here are a lot more expensive than buying the material and building it yourself, and usually less well-built. Although I took the route buying like new sheds off of Craigslist. There is a very healthy rent to own business in sheds around here and many people after the first part of a year or so default and have them repossessed. Or people sell them off when they are moving. So there are dealers who keep them out on the lot and will deliver them. I got my nicest shed that way and it is super nice. Finished like a real house outside even shutters on the windows. The other one, rougher, I got from a construction guy who had built it at his house but was moving. He was just going to build a new shed at the new house even though it was only 40 miles away. I found a transport guy through the shed businesses and paid him separately. I still came out at about the third the cost of buying it from a dealer New. Same plan and materials but better constructed. It is very common to put shed floor systems on concrete blocks at the corners or perhaps along the rim joist as well, but there would be space below to allow air circulation and prevent infestation by covering those concrete blocks at the corners with metal sheeting overhanging the block. any insulation in the floor should be protected to prevent critters from getting up in it from below. And the corners should really be tied down into the ground for tornados.

First found you when you built your first shed. Looking forward to this build

We just built a shed with a bar built into the other end ! Its so cool!

A friend of mine had a wartime old shed / wooden building about 3 times the size of yours. The answer for was setting fire to it ! It had years of creosote , felt etc and went up in black smoke visible for miles .... Loads of people called the fire brigade who were somewhat unhappy lol

Great video as always - fantastic comedy too. Thank you!

That looks like fun....

I'm young and innexperienced, never built anything, but gonna try to build a shed.

First of all, really looking forward to this build. I was thinking you might be getting rid of the greenhouse and am glad it went to someone who wanted it. Pity you got rid of it though as if you’d of got into a bit growing I’m sure you would of loved it.

I don't know really if there are any regulations there, if it comes down to building sheds. But basically I build them like I would build a strong fence. Which means digging a 1m/3 foot deep hole for the poles and fill them with concrete as well. there are even iron bars that can be used for this (or hybrids) On top you just make a floating floor. I have build a couple of them, some are even still standing after 15 years, with not even a bit of sine of wood issues.

Surprised you went full on botcher to take the roof down ‘cos you’re normally quite pernickety 😃. If that greenhouse had smashed you’d have been picking up the glass for months as I learned the hard way. Recip saw, £30 for a crap one that does the job is the way to go for anyone thinking of a small demolition . Looking forward to seeing how the new shed comes along 👍🏻

You are braver than me for getting onto that roof!

What was your trade before you came the RU-vid legend we see today?

Interesting project. Looking forward to seeing how the design of your shed pans out. The reason for the gaps around the door and the apparent lean is due to the base not being level. I’ve had this problem on 2 sheds and initially on a third, which I was able to fix once the problem had been identified.

Interesting project there Keith and agree you need to make the most of that fantastic view you have. Peter Parfitt, New Brit Workshop is currently running a build a shed series.

Got some real character that shed, shame to lose it🤔😂 Nice reference from The Shining btw 👍

Funny. My first thought on seeing how the shed obscured the lovely view was to get rid of it but not put a new one up in the same place, and then it turned out that you had decided the same 😄 I don't know what you plans are for the new shed but I would recommend damp proofing and pouring a concrete floor. With wet weather, sometimes flooding, and just for the sake of adding stability to the foundation , it should definitely be worth it.

Your brothers a big lad isn't he!

Wow you have some amazing views from your garden. I too have a garden that backs onto fields. Only mine is a school field🙁🙁🙁

I would have been very tempted to karate kick my way through that she'd 😂

I just dismantled a shed, but it's taken me a while because I have a disability, and two different able bodied people I hired didn't show up for work. Someone volunteered to help, but didn't show up, either. We get lied to and cheated all the time, so that's nothing new. I got it done, though. I have a back and leg injury as a result, but I got it done.

I am looking forward to watching this project...my one question is why not take down the sunroom now so you have more are and can orient the shed horizontally edit: haha i finished the episode and that is exactly what you do!

Lol! If you brother doesn’t like belts. Just buy him longer shirts. He is a pretty tall guy. 😂

Not a gardener at all? I know it's not for everyone, I don't think I could bear to take down a green house though!

So much reclaimed wood!

Great video. but love the green house next door. get rid of plants. Stick in a deck chair. Instant sauna.

So now to put in a tiled patio with tables and chairs where the shed use to be

All those spiders... I'd have just taken a flame thrower to it!

Nice under pants are they up cycled too

4:58 🤣🤣🤣

Prob too late, but Use a metal detector to look for old buried antiques. Never know what you’ll find.

Hi! What are the common signs that a shed cannot be reused?

ah man, you should have kept the greenhouse!

Kiera. Suggestion: buy yourself a flat bar.

Is a shed really a shed if it hasn't got a bit of a lean and dodgy foundations?

Brave of you to get on the roof 😂

Looking forward to part 2 , wondered if you are going do a flat roof or something like they do in america like a mini barn

I can see you won the genetic baldness lottery. Feel for your brother though. Unfortunately I don't have much hope of also winning this prize.

Nicely done Keith 😁. Can't wait for the next instalment. Glad to see Dylan is enjoying the garden while his daddy is hard at work. But I bet he will want a turn on the hammock when you get (make) it. Love your view, looks like there is more view in Norfolk than down here in Sunny Essex. Thanks Keith 😁👍

Did you also list free firewood on FB Marketplace at the same time Keith 🙂

Do you not have termites? Here (Virginia, USA) that would have been termite poop long ago.

I can't click the bell because it's content suitable for kids !?

As a non-UK watcher, I'm curious about disposal. Can you just hire a bin, as they do here in Canada and fill it up and have it hauled away? I know that is probably overkill for the shed, but it did still seem like more junk than one van-load.

Have you thought of buying a used shipping container?

Hey Keith, leaning shed is more to do with no strong corners or diagonal bracing... Probably too late to be saying this now but sure that's my thinking... Crappy construction equals rock from side to side... I suspect the siding had crap staples in crappy soft wood.

wow what a beautiful view just out of curiosity where is it that you're located I know it's in Europe but where it's beautiful

You aren't supposed to be burning treated and painted timber, it is very toxic! Also as long as you have prepped underneath it is perfectly OK to build off blocks. I think the issue with that shed was most likely lack of ventilation rather than ground movement, which happens all the time.

Is your brother a plumber... He has the trousers for it!

Why do you have a fire?

Sawzall time

Make sure you don’t transfer the woodworms to your new workshop

For a second I thought you were calling your friend a "bum" as in loser or homeless person. I was like, that was an out of the blue burn. Then I remembered you guys use it to mean butt.

Thinking of building one for myself soon. Thinking of using these to raise the floor beams off of the ground? www.wickes.co.uk/Jouplast-Plastic-Adjustable-Decking-Risers---40mm-to-60mm-Pack-of-15/p/207742

Wait, this is not his day job? What does he do for living?

Looking forward to following this project, and you’re putting me to shame - all I need to do is reroof an existing ‘shed’ and there you are building a whole new one! Maybe thats because I’ve already got my hammock and prefer to just lie in it instead of doing building works!?!

Thank you for sparing us the gratuitous plumber's crevasse! 😆😂🤣😂😆

bum made me laugh
