Thanks so much for this video. Having done minimal DIY before, I bought myself a mitre saw and have just completed a 360cm x 90cm lean to shed with doors either end. Even my wife said she can’t believe how good it was. I copied your design and used the fixings discussed in the comments section. Thanks again. Shame I can’t share my pictures of it!

Hi, will definitely refer to your video when attempting to build my lean in shed. One thing - working for a gas network, I noticed your meters are enclosed in the structure, and that would be classed as an ovebuild, which is a safety issue. In case of gas leak on that part of the service, gas can cumulate to an explosive level when any spark can set it off. You should apply for service altertion through your gas network. Cheers!

Hi. Great job. Very nice way to seal the roof against the existing wall. Can I ask 3 questions if you have time to answer them: 1. How did the seal where the bottom of the walls connect to the concrete base. Are you getting any water ingress there? 2. At 13.26 - what are you painting on the roof? 3. At 13.35, What is the black stuff you have joining the wall to the roof? Many thanks. Jonathan King

@adsamateurdiy5963 Год назад

@kingjon100 Hi Jonathan, thanks for your comment! 1. To seal the bottoms of the walls I just used a general purpose waterproofing sealer, to be honest some water does get in, I’m planning on felting the outer side curved into the drain to avoid this. 2. BOSTIK WATERPROOFING BITUMINOUS PAINT BLACK 3. The flashing was just bostik flashband and the black paint came with the pack, it encourages the flashband to stick to the service. Hope this helps!

@adsamateurdiy5963 3 года назад

Thanks! Wood spec - Studwork Timber - 38 X 63 X 2400mm. I painted the frame with two coats of Ronseal sealer also to avoid rot as it wasn’t treated timber. The cross beams were just screwed to the frame and wall header, one screw in the top and one in the bottom. No notches cut out as minimal weight in the roof on this occasion. Hope this helps

@Artur-jv9nv 3 года назад

Great video, but I always wonder why people use sheets of wood and felt instead of a polycarbonate sheet for lean to shed roof, with polycarbonate, its watertight right away and also gives you natural light. Is cost the factor? @Ads Amateur DIY, were you considering polycarbonate?

@adsamateurdiy5963 3 года назад

I think it’s probably durability. The woods fixed down solid and won’t crack and split etc, with it being 18mm. Especially in my case the hedge is likely to grow onto the roof

@brendanguiney4859 3 года назад

Hey, great video, and great shed! One question...why did you not use a damp proof membrane under the concrete installation? Thanks!

@adsamateurdiy5963 3 года назад

Thanks! I chose not to for the size of this shed. Everything in the shed now is stored on shelves up high out of the way of our child. So nothing is on the floor, it’s doesn’t get damp in there anyway.

Thanks Jack, probably should have in hindsight. However didn't think I'd need it for such a small slab. I did read online saying its not overly necessary as its outside and with the size, not much moisture should be beneath it, being a shed an all. Not sleeping in it just yet.

@adsamateurdiy5963 3 года назад

Hi Damian, I haven’t sealed these joins. I had to cut multiple squares towards the back as it was an awkward size, but they all meet in the middle of the stud etc. However because of the water and mud coming off the hedge I have also covered the whole wall with cheaper roof felt to protect it, just not in the video

Excellent job mate - well done! Really enjoyed watching the video also. We were thinking of doing something similar in our garden, with the back of the garage wall. Seeing you do this has been brilliant. How has the untreated timber held up with the Ronseal? Thanks & great job once again!

@adsamateurdiy5963 2 года назад

Hi Mate, thank you! You should definitely give it go. The ronseal preserver has so far worked really well, the shed is now around 18 months old and the frame is still solid as a rock. Obviously a treated timber would be better but much more expensive.

@rahmanhussain153 2 года назад

@@adsamateurdiy5963 That's brilliant and good to hear. Yep, totally understand that treated timber would be better, but it's a pretty steep jump in price! So really good to hear your one has worked well. Great job bud!

@mrtcryan 3 года назад

Hi thanks for this great video! Really useful as we are planning a very similar project. A couple of questions.. what was the finished size of your shed? Also do you think the plastic grid type base with gravel would be suitable for something similar? Also what did you add on the roof where it met with your house wall.. would this be needed too if its a brick wall?.. sorry all the questions. Thanks! 😁

@adsamateurdiy5963 3 года назад

Hi Tim, thanks for your comment! The shed size is around 1.8m x 2.6m. I’ve not worked with the grid type base but I’m sure it would be fine providing you can make it flat / level and be able to secure the shed frame to it if needed. I would bare in mind the weight load on top, frame / shed contents to avoid sinking etc. We chased a channel into the wall and added flashing, you can buy this on rolls in tape form. It seals the roof joint to the house to stop any water. This is common and would recommend doing this to keep everything dry and water tight. Hope this helps, Good luck with your build!

Thanks Cory! Base was about 6inches. 5:1 ratio ballast + cement. For a wheelbarrow full mix I did 15 shovels + 3 shovels of cement into the mixer.
