Bespoke Apex Sheds – Built to Your Exact Measurements
Our apex sheds are the classic garden building choice — reliable, practical, and built to last. Every shed we make is bespoke, crafted to the exact dimensions you need from premium-grade, sustainably sourced timber. Whether you need something compact for a small garden or a large apex shed for serious storage, we build it to order.
Classic Apex Roof for Maximum Headroom
The apex roof design gives you the most usable interior space of any shed style. The central ridge runs the full length of the shed, creating good standing headroom throughout — ideal if you’re using your shed as a workspace as well as for storage. The traditional V-shaped roof also sheds rainwater efficiently, making it the practical choice for the UK climate.
What’s Included with Every Apex Shed
Every Rutland apex shed comes fully specified as standard:
- Tongue and groove shiplap cladding for a weathertight finish
- Tongue and groove floor and roof boards
- Framed, ledged and braced door
- Choice of window position and style
- All fixings included
- Optional wood treatment (water-based or solvent-based)
Made to Your Size — Not the Other Way Round
Unlike shed retailers who sell fixed sizes from a catalogue, we build every apex shed to your exact specification. Need something 7ft 3in wide to fit a gap? Or a non-standard depth to clear a boundary fence? No problem — just call us or get a quote and we’ll work to your measurements.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do apex sheds need planning permission?
In most cases, no. Garden sheds typically fall under permitted development rights as long as they meet certain size criteria. However, rules vary, particularly on listed buildings or in conservation areas. We recommend checking with your local authority if you’re unsure.
What sizes do apex sheds come in?
We build apex sheds to any size. Common sizes range from 6ft x 4ft up to 12ft x 8ft and beyond, but if you need something unusual, just ask — bespoke sizing is our speciality.
How long will a wooden apex shed last?
With proper treatment and maintenance, a quality timber apex shed should last 15–25 years or more. We recommend applying a wood preservative every 2–3 years to maximise the lifespan.
Can I choose where the door goes?
Yes. We can position the door on whichever side suits your garden layout, and we can discuss window placement and style to suit your preferences.
Do you deliver outside your local area?
