Shed update - old & new

With a temporary power supply rigged up to the new shed and power sockets installed along with the initial security measures (more to follow) it was time to take down the old shed, yes, demolition time had arrived.

The weekend starts...

... and from another angle.

The easy bit was always going to be removing door and windows, the simple tongue and grove panels and the liner floor panels laid over the original (rotten) wood floor. The hard bit was going to be the roof with it’s multiple layers of roofing felt. Well that is what we thought so we removed the easy bits first....

Window glass removed....
Followed by the door.


Then as we tackled the structure the roof developed a distinct V shape so the plan changed to remove all the wood in the sides, weakening the structure and then just push it over...

Well that plan worked a treat.

So with a power saw to cut it all up, a broom to clear it up, and a skip to take it all away, here is the end result...

Then there was one.

This was the shed (and some of its contents).


The next stage of the overall plan is to install lighting in the one shed, complete the security measures and then get Bestcrete back in during the first week in September to replace the slabs with patterned, pressed concrete to match the patio done last year.
