Frequently Asked Questions
How big should a tool shed be?
It depends on what you plan to store. For basic garden tools, a 3x2ft or 4x2ft shed is sufficient. If you need to store a lawnmower alongside tools and a BBQ, we’d recommend a 6x4ft or larger. Our team can advise on the best size for your needs.
Do I need planning permission for a tool shed?
Most garden sheds fall under permitted development rights in the UK, meaning no planning permission is required — provided the shed is under 2.5m in height, not in front of the principal elevation, and covers less than 50% of the garden area. Our tool sheds are compact enough to typically fall within these rules, but we recommend checking with your local council if you’re unsure.
What wood is used in Rutland Sheds tool sheds?
We use tongue & groove shiplap timber throughout — floors, walls, and roof. All timber is sourced from PEFC and FSC certified suppliers, ensuring responsible forestry. We recommend treating your shed with a quality preservative within 4 weeks of installation to extend its lifespan.
Can I add shelving to my tool shed?
Shelving is not included as standard but can be added on request. Please contact us to discuss your requirements and we can provide a separate quote.
