A durable shed is often described as an essential investment for your outside space to store tools, equipment outside furniture. The storage element of a shed is of course crucial; but ensuring that it is weatherproof and will protect your items from the natural elements is important too as it protects your valuable possessions and items remain intact and in good condition; regardless of the weather. The Irish weather is often unpredictable so having a good quality, weatherproof shed for the garden is an important decision.
Being both watertight and weatherproof, a shed is a durable shield for your items against unpredictable weather, such as heavy rain, snow, or strong winds as well as a protection against moisture damage. It is also a preventative tool against rust and corrosion which adds longevity for your tools and equipment and other items you are storing in your shed. Outdoor spaces are becoming more important and we often view them as another living or social space.
A well built shed can add to the overall visual appeal and aesthetics of an outdoor space, complementing your garden or outdoor space design and style; and it can even add value to your property. A sturdy, strong and protective shed is a versatile and a crucial addition to any outdoor space and making sure we have the right roof to protect its longevity is key. Within this post we discuss the benefits of Roof Tile Effect Sheeting, Plastisol and Polyester box profile and corrugated roofing sheets; and why they are the ideal choice for a shed roof.
Roof Tile Effect Sheeting, Plastisol and Polyester Finish Box Profile and Corrugated Roofing Sheets
Essentially, these sheets are a practical, cost-effective solution for your garden and outdoor shed as they are 100% weatherproof making them strong, durable, secure and long lasting. The sheets can easily be customised to your roof requirements and measurements making it effective as it helps reduce and minimises waste as well as saves time on the installation process, making them a smart and practical choice for any DIY project.
Cost Effective
Due to the nature and material of the polyester box profile and corrugated roofing sheets being engineered to be durable and long-lasting; this makes them extremely cost effective. They have an incredibly sturdy construction as well as being made of materials that make the sheets extremely weatherproof, reducing the need for maintenance, repairs or replacement. Due to the fact the sheets are lightweight; they are very easy to install and can be cut to size on site which reduces waste and time; another cost saving benefit. These days 95% come in one metre cover width, so think in metres, less waste.
Durability
These sheets are used in both the residential and agricultural world due to their durability, making them a popular choice for a wide range of projects; including garden sheds. They are made from high-quality materials including galvanised steel which is often coated in a layer of zinc that offers protection against rust and corrosion.
Steel offers structural strength making them a perfect choice for a garden shed that is exposed to the elements all year round. Another material that makes up the composition of the sheets is polyester. This is added to the outer layer of the sheet and adds an additional strength element as well as an additional resistance to fading, chalking, and abrasion which ensure that the sheets remain visually intact as well as retain their practicality.
Customisable
Additionally, these sheets are available in a range of colours and finishes; which means you can customise and match your shed roof to your outdoor aesthetic; complementing the existing style of your outdoor space and the exterior of your property. They also come in a range of different profiles including box profile and traditional corrugated which again offers a great choice that suits different visual preferences.
Non-Drip Sheets
Non-drip sheets or anti-condensation coating is a specific treatment that is applied to the underside of sheets and is designed to limit and control the volume of condensation that is produced and the water droplets that are formed on the inside of the sheets, within your shed. Condensation occurs when warm, moist air comes into contact with a colder surface, and this can happen frequently in spaces that do not have sufficient ventilation or insulation.
Condensation leads to the build up of moisture and this can cause mould, rot, and water damage; elements that not only affect a shed but also the equipment, tools, and furniture that are stored away, for the non-drip to work efficiently, your roof must be well ventilated.
