Is it Safe to Sleep in a Garden Luxury Cabin ?
As i work for a company that erects log cabins, they are totally safe to live in. With the right insulation and plumbing and electrics,makes a great place to live.
Reply:Luxury cabins are unsafe. You should by a Utilitarian model with airbags and seatbelts.
Reply:What do you mean by "safe"? If it's properly assembled, it shouldn't fall down around you. It would probably be too cold in the Winter, but it wouldn't be sensible to light a fire in it. What burglar is going to find it worthwhile to rob someone who has to live in a shed? Living in it would probably violate the Health %26amp; Safety laws, anyway.
Reply:You probably couldn't live in one legally - no plumbing, etc - I think building regulations might come into it. You could use it for the odd night though.
Reply:You can put locks on the doors same as a house. But: will you have electricity, plumbing, sewer, heat/cool, etc... ?
Reply:you didn't specify dimensions or optional extras. if the cabin is heated and plumbed then it is safe to live in. a lot safer then other accomodation i have stayed in throughout the globe


What would be the best way of stopping my neighbours children climbing on my garden wall.Would a trellis work?

I am always asking them to keep off the wall along with my own kids. I need to stop them but not sure the best way without cutting down all my light into the garden. Once on the wall they then run across the shed roof, I am so fed up with it. So is my neighbour she is constantly telling them off too.


As i would want to attach to top of wall what would be best way to attach something?


Any ideas appreciated.

Try an anti vandal paint... maybe just put it on the shed roof. Its black and sticky and yuckky !!! One dose of that and they wont be back... AND its harmless
Reply:electric fence? barb wire? just kidding, a trellis would work or you could plant dwarf holly bushes around your garden, that would keep kids out but it might keep you out too, they have spiky leaves
Reply:I know some of the countries down in South America lay some wet mortar and then install broken glass and spikes in it.
Reply:NO! trellis makes it easier! Get some metal spikes.
Reply:Kids love a challenge. I have a sure thing, but it does have what I call "an adolescent behavior". A bougainvillea. Definitely a teenager with an attitude! Their first encounter will make a lasting impression (very thorny!)
Reply:Considering some of the answers you've received to your post, I think you'll get more helpful and intelligent advice for your garden wall problem from a Home Depot or Orchard Supply Hardware.
Reply:Put anti climb paint on the top of the wall, you can buy anti climb paint from most D.I.Y shops. That should stop them.
Reply:Barbed Wire!
Reply:Call the police for trespassing. That way if there is any damage you have it documented with the police already that you've had problems with these children.
Reply:Plant pyracantha or bougainvillea on a trellis both have razor sharp thorns.
Reply:Rottweiler?
Reply:BB Gun.
Reply:call the police? I dunno, maybe you can put an alarm system there or something.
Reply:I put trellis on my garden wall the four climbing rose growing up it not only keep the little darlings out they look great in flower
Reply:Try putting something slipery like oil ontop the wall. Better still tell there parents, if they dont stop them report them to social services for being out of controll and not having any parental skills.


Its out of order, they might break your shed, take some of the roof suports out of you shed, then they will fall throu, and put a giant tub of **** inside you shed for them to fall into!


It could be like a tom and jerry cartoon at your house once you've taken all my advice.


Take some bricks out of the wall then it will fall down and there parents will have to buy you a new wall.


You could put wire along the top and grow grapes on it!


Or just thow a buckett of water over them each time them climb onto the wall. Yeah water thats the trick *:) Get a water cannon like the riot police have *;)
Reply:something with thorns perhaps, like a climbing rose or maybe barbed wire, just kidding , well sort of. how about 'hen and chicks' or some other prickly succulants.
Reply:Rugosa roses could be trained up against the wall- they're thorny enough to strongly discourage climbing. Many other climbing roses aren't nearly as tough...


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rugosa_Rose
Reply:Pitbull, Rottweiler, Doberman.... any of these 3 should scare the little bastards away!
Reply:it is illegal to put barbed wire and broken glass however much you might be tempted :-) also if you put anything on the wall that might cause them to slip is also legally very dangerous for you. but the anti vandal paint on the roof is a good idea and a notice on the wall to the effect that they must keep off the paint is there and you will not be responsible for any accidents. take some photos of the notice in case they remove it.


having said that, live with it if you can, children climb walls and cross roofs and swing on gates, it is natural ...........and it is great to have young friends as they grow up.......i am going to the wedding soon of one of a pair of twins who was forever coming round for her football.
Reply:how about you just do something with your kids so they dont climb on the roof to get your attention? go to the neighbours and arrange a walk or go for a picnic? they wont be on the roof annoying you or her then.. get a trampoline, buy them chalk , make a den, organise a game they can all play... you cant do the other stuff people have suggested anyway so either do stuff with them or dont look at them when they are up there and then they'll only stop when one of them breaks their neck falling off the wall or roof!!!!!!!!
Reply:Rolled wire or grease
Reply:electrify it
Reply:Start with your own children. Who is in charge? You or them? Quit telling them and MAKE them stop it. Punish them if they do it again so that they will understand that you mean what you say. If they thought you truly meant it, they would not keep doing it. Ground them, take something away from them, do something so that they will learn the consequences of their behavior. Parents are doing their children an horrible disservice by allowing continued bad behavior. What would happen to you if your boss had to keep telling you over and over and over to no avail. You'd get fired! Wake up and raise your children! Quit letting them run you. I guarantee if they stop, so will the neighbor's kids.
Reply:get a gun...haha...nono i didn't mean it....i would talk to their parents...if that doesn't work...call the police
Reply:Beat the crap out of them every time you catch them.


you could electrify the roof top.


you could dig a huge pit and put spikes in it inside the shed and then weaken the roof so the fall in.


all of these are very good ideas.
Reply:Well I sugest 2 things!





1. You can complain to the neighbours parents and ask them very kindly if they wouldn't mind telling their children not to climb up the wall. and Try to bribe them not to (chocolate no TV....)





2. Put prickly pointy plants on top or put a part of a fence on top so once they get pricked no more climbing.
Reply:Obviously, you cannot harm them. So the best way in the long term, is to train a pyracantha shrub along the fence, they will stop climbing when they have scratched there arms and legs a few times.
Reply:Electric fence
Reply:bit of cement mix spread along wall and as its setting stick broken glass into it.....sounds harsh but it might work
Reply:Barbed wire? Some kind of thorny vine?
Reply:a bear trap

Building a nature garden?

i live with my folks (due to lack of money, not out of want!) and they have quite a reasonable sized garden. however, they are planning to pave most of it, and what areas they don't pave are going to build sheds and pergolas etc on. i'm getting into nature photography quite heavily, and wanted to attract alot of UK wildlife into our garden, but i'm having trouble finding a way to do this seeing as they're going to be wiping out most of the nature from our garden!! does anyone have any tips on bringing animals into a garden such as this?

Building a nature garden?
Thought you'd like this video from the BBC about planting flowers to attract birds, butterflies %26amp; wildlife. Most flowers that attract birds also attract butterflies %26amp; insects:


http://www.bbc.co.uk/mediaselector/check...





Native wildflowers that birds are attracted to are berry-bearing plants in winter, such as cotoneasters, holly, pyracantha and skimmia. Also favourites with birds are natives like crab apples, hawthorn, honeysuckle, rowan, and sunflowers."


The BBC recommends : Guelder rose (Viburnum opulus), Globe thistle (Echinops ritro), Butterfly bush (Buddleja davidii), Honeysuckle (Lonicera periclymenum), Marigold (Calendula officinalis), Primrose (Primula vulgaris,) Ivy (Hedera helix) - which provides shelter for birds, nectar in winter and berries in spring.


http://www.bbc.co.uk/gardening/basics/te...





The daisy family contains many plants that are exceptionally good for wildlife, either attracting insects for nectar or birds and small mammals for seeds.


Ways to attract wildlife %26amp; Garden Habitats:


http://www.rspb.org.uk/wildlife/wildlife...


Plant list (click on each name for more info):


http://www.rspb.org.uk/wildlife/wildlife...





Besides providing native, colorful, nectar filled flowers %26amp; berry bushes %26amp; nut trees ... make certain that there is always fresh water available for drinking as well as for bathing. Wildlife like birds need sunnny areas and they especially need shady areas to perch as well as to build their nests.


Put bird-feeders or bird tables where cats can't reach. Provide nesting boxes for birds %26amp; even bats. These will substitutes for the holes in old trees. Let some of your plants go to seed. Other wildlife will also show up if they have a cozy place to nest along with greens, seeds, berries %26amp; water.





Good luck!!! Hope this helps.
Reply:Add several bird feeders and squirrel feeders. This should keep the wildlife around


Converting my garden shed into a bedroom (mine)?

ok! my shed is 144inch by 66inch...it is made of wood (if that helps) with a tarpauling roof.


so there are the measurements, i dont want to replace the shed, its god ivy groing through in some place, i would really like to know how i should make it a little more tights, so that not too many spiders can get it, or ivy etc,i'd also like to make it a little warmer, i mean i can just paint onto the wood, but heat would be nice ^_^ though i also want it to be cool when its hot weather!


so any sugestions... its just a normal garden shed...but i want to make it a bit more...cool?


nicer etx =) any ideas?


http://www.gardenbuildingsdirect.co.uk/W... ...kind of like it...but the door is a bit different...and its green on the outside =)





thank you for replys!

Converting my garden shed into a bedroom (mine)?
At a minimum caulk all seams and cracks, and weatherstrip the door and windows. If there isn't a ceiling under that tarpaulin roof, you might want to add one. For better comfort, you can put interior walls consisting of insulation, vapor barrier, and paneling (or drywall), though this will take a few inches of your already narrow 66" width. Window coverings will help retain heat in cold weather.





If you don't have electricity, a catalytic camping heater will give you heat, though you need to have some ventilation with one.
Reply:Put some bug stuff outside the shed. Make sure everything is covered. No holes open! And don't forget to put tight floors! Underground bugs to! Umm....I know they have those heater thinges to put in places like that. But i sort of doubt it because then u got winter storms, rain storm, thunderstorms! And it mostly all depends on the weather and were u live at!

If my neighbours tree falls on my garden shed,who's liable for the damage?

my neighbour has huge trees in her garden,they are way too big for a small/medium sized garden.They sway whenever theres a strong wind.I'm worried they will land on my garden shed,its a good shed with proper slated roof. One of the trees is right behind it.If it falls on my shed can I sue her for the damage? I dont know her so I cant really approach her or she'll think Im a looney tune,which I actually am anyway.

If my neighbours tree falls on my garden shed,who's liable for the damage?
Your neighbour!!!! you looney tune!!
Reply:Definetly you can sue them because its in their garden and they've damaged your property.
Reply:Yes you can sue her
Reply:Your neighbour would be liable for the damage. If you are worried you really ought to speak to her.
Reply:she has to pay you or take her to Small clams court
Reply:you should be able to claim something
Reply:She will be liable for the damage, your neighbour.
Reply:If any branches are within your boundary you can cut them by law. Also any damage to your shed you can claim damages from your neighbour. I would get a good solicitor to write them a letter and get a tree inspector from council to see if tree is a health and safety hazard. If it is they will cut it down.
Reply:Count the positive aspects of that tree - like shade etc. and not the fear of felling tree. At the most you can have good relations with your neighbour and ask her to get the tree trimmed to the extent that it never falls. Enjoy good neighbourhood.
Reply:She would,be sure you are not in the shed tho
Reply:Depends on the property liability laws where you live. Better to ask a local attorney, than solicit non-profesional advice here, and be wrong.
Reply:If a tree from your neighbours yard falls onto your property and damages your shed,she is liable. i would approach the lady and vioce my concerns you never know she may be a looney tune as well.
Reply:she is and you could sue, you should suggest that she cut it down or trim if your are concerned.
Reply:Depends on the laws where you live. Usually, if it is her tree she has to pay for what it does....I had a neighbors big tree break in half during a wind storm and her insurance had to pay for it's removal and my roof.
Reply:If it was on his side of the fence (assuming there's a fence, doesn't have to be) then he is liable to cough up.
Reply:Yes they are liable
Reply:i think it is RACV or anyone else.
Reply:She would be responsible as it is her tree. You state that you don't know her so you can't talk to her. How long have you been neighbors? I would try talking to her. It could be she doesn't even relize the possible problem and may even be willing to have the tree trimmed to prevent such a problem. She may be a looney tune also and then the two of you can be looney tune's together.
Reply:you sure will be able to claim.





why can't you ?
Reply:If the wind blows your shed up into your neighbours tree are you liable.


Yes, you could probaby make them pay. Laws, because of greedy people like you are passed to keep neighbours from being friends. Don't build sheds in areas where trees might grow.


You can breathe without sheds, you can't breathe without trees.


One other thing, the tree is not right behind the shed, the shed is right in front of the tree.


My grass verge question - it is outside my sheds at the bottom of my garden so is that still a public road?

wow you got me is your shed that close to the road?? Try lawn and garden this is the car and trans. board.hope this helps.


Metal garden shed?

I am thinking of getting a metal shed as my old wooden one is rotten and mice are getting in. Want a fairly large one say 3 metres by 4 metres. Any idea roughly what I should expect to pay for one - the finished product, assembled on a concrete base? Also, would you recommend this - pros and cons please.

Metal garden shed?
Hi





Just bought a metal shed from Homebase (online) it's 8ft x 6ft so a little smaller than what u want but I paid around £200 for it, think they have some on offer at the mo.





I also paid around £70 for the concrete flags and sand for the base but this was from my local building merchant. (my dad put down the flags so that was free! and my husband constructed the shed which took nearly a whole day! he is a very competent DIY'er but the instructions may as well have been in another language!)





The end result is great, looks good and no maintenance but I would advise that it's difficult to build and needs a concrete base. Hope this helps :)
Reply:My Father -in-law had a big metal shed { big as a garage } but it got really windy one night, my car was parked on their driveway, awaiting repairs , part of the shed came over the gate %26amp; landed in my windscreen, I was not a happy bunny :(
Reply:Metal sheds wont last as long as a wodden shed that was built correctly. For smaller sheds, rubbermaid makes plastic sheds.
Reply:Metal Shed?


I made sheds for years and have to say that a metal shed is as damp as they get.


I would recommend a wooden shed, look for a strong one not a B %26amp; Q one - they are just for over night stays.


Have been told Saintfield is cheap for them and strong. You need at least a 6x4 otherwise if you have a lawn mower it will take a lot of your shed up. You dont need a concrete base just some skids (wooden planks)
Reply:Metal sheds are bad news, condensation, interior mould on storage items, rust, noise when raining and birds marching on the roof, difficultly when fitting shelves even a coat hanger....exremly cold in winter wood is best by far, it's your choice but be warned.
Reply:About $ 3,800 including hauling off the old shed. ( give or take $ 400)
Reply:Most major stores have sites that will give price and quote on assembly and delivery. Check Home depots site or just give them a call
Reply:About 2 years ago, I purchased a metal shed from a catalogue. In the pictures it looked sturdy enough( one of the two tone green types),however when it came flat packed, we tried to errect itbut none of the holes lined up. It then had to be sent back. 2nd one arrived, the roof didn't fit properly on top of the main base, sections were too short. The metal is very flimsy.The shed was 8ft x 6ft and cost £165.We sent it back in the end.





To cut a long story short. we gave up on metal sheds, and went for a new wooden one, we haven't looked back.





Its purely down to choice, amount of money available.
Reply:u didnt mention if some1 has 2 make the base? to just erect a shed on base thats there isnt much....they r noisy though rain on metal woohooo,hope its near a neighbour%26amp; if u want 2 hang anything inside u wont be banging any nails in the walls....wood looks much nicer %26amp; as long as u leave room (1 1/2-2ft) round he side u can treat every few yrs it would last 20+ easy i just paid £1,200 16x10ft shed with thicker floor %26amp; extra height so u dont bang ya head on the lights....that included erection...what will u be using it 4?
Reply:Metal ones are the way to go.I just got one they are great.

Reply:My Dad doesn't recommend metal ones!Wooden are best,sorry!
Reply:I have had a metal shed for a couple of years now (9x7)


it cost 500 Euro from Argos and I can honestly say it's been the biggest piece of S**T know to man!!


If a gale is blowing the rain will ingress up and along the roof panels and drip in ( I sealed them with Silicone! )


The same can be said for where the roof panels end towards the roof..( Sealed with Spray expanding foam! )


Heavy rain driving against the two front doors would go over the top ( Had to fit a large wooden pelmet with felt lining !)


I now have a draught free shed that only leaks a fraction but if the floor happens to get wet, say if I left the doors open for ten minutes then I am faced with condensation off the roof dripping down my neck for the next week!!


So in MY opinion stick to WOOD!


It is warmer! makes putting up shelves a doddle!


can easily be extended! it comes in six pieces which should take an hour to erect! a metal one comes in 600 pieces and will take a day to erect ( after you have re-drilled half the holes that don't feckin line up properly! )


Need I say more? all the best ...smiffy

Would a car fit in a 10x14 steel garden shed?

Nah, just get an 20ft ocean container from the port. A 40ft Ocean Container can fit 2 cars, you know. To get out of your car, you can pull down the back seat and get out through the boot/bonnet.

Would a car fit in a 10x14 steel garden shed?
If the car is smaller than 10x14, then yes
Reply:Maximum width on the highway is 8 feet. So the car is less than that. The length of my Duster is 14 feet. I don't think that car will fit, as I believe it is longer. If in doubt get a tape measure and find out unless you don't have the car yet.
Reply:If your car is less than 10 by 14. Good luck getting it through the doors, though.
Reply:no. it will do you no good..
Reply:I don't think so! A LTC is at least 20 ft. long, and if you drove the car in, could you get out the door (of the car??)
Reply:well, it depends on how big your vehicle is. Another thing i was thinking of, is how high is the shed? take that into consideration, too.
Reply:the width is more than enough, the length depends on what type pf vehicle it is.

Whats the maximum size shed you can have in your garden without planning permission?

Really depends on the size of your garden and how far away the neighbouring houses are

Whats the maximum size shed you can have in your garden without planning permission?
depends where you are, call up and ask your council tomorrow, its Monday.
Reply:Its best to call your local authority, but its along the lines of no more than 25% of the garden and it has to be around no less then 5 mtr from your house.
Reply:Height is most important - don't put your neighbours in shade and expect them to be happy about it. You can usually have 4 metres high for an apex-roof, or 3 metres high for a single-pitched roof.


Check with your council.
Reply:As far as i am aware, you are allowed any size shed, as long as it is not lived in and is built of wood, as this means it is not a permanent structure.
Reply:every council is different, you need to ask them. But if you're in the countryside they might allow quite a large structure.
Reply:All bylaws differ, so you will have to call your local office for details.
Reply:You are allowed upto 60sq mtrs before planning permission but you done have to take into account all out building if you have any in your calculation
Reply:Call your local zoning office and ask.





If you want to know before they open, or if you don't want to be on the phone for 6 hours bouncing around different departments, check their website. The zoning laws should be listed, and general guidelines can tell you what size is OK.





Alternatively, if you have a nearby store that sells pre-built sheds, you can ask them what size is OK. Usually, the size of their sheds will be within the local legal size.


Inside a garden shed while reading or taking a nap would you close the door?

Disposal Of Garden Shed.?

Our garden shed has seen better days and we would like to get rid of it.





Would we have to knock it down and hire a skip, or is there another way of disposal?

Disposal Of Garden Shed.?
you could do that or put it on freecycle and see if anyone wants it.


failing that take it to a local tip,or


Save it for bonfire night see if anyone wants it then.
Reply:Lemondrop, in some places in the UK, you cannot put garden waste (including sheds) out for collection.





To others: in some places in the UK you're not allowed to burn it, and also, some people might not have room.





I suggest breaking it up and taking it in the car to the tip, or if this isn't possible, ask a neighbour. My dad also takes some garden waste to work, where there is a facilities to get rid of it there.
Reply:Do you not have big trash day in your city? In our city we have big trash day once a week so we have our big trash day on the second and fourth Monday of each month. We just put our trash at the curb and either collectors will pick it up or the city.


There is also a mulching site in our city where you can take big trash and leaves if you don't want to wait for trash day.


You should call city hall and ask them.
Reply:Wait for Bonfire night?





Its only wood, you could cut it up and put it in the back of the car and take it to the tip.





Pile it up at the bottom of the garden and let it break down and become one with nature.





Put it on eBay, 99p start, buyer collects. - you may be surprised!
Reply:You have been reported to the NSPCS (National Society for the Provention of Cruelty to Sheds), you nasty person, leave the shed alone and pick on someone your own size.
Reply:You could stick it on freecycle and see if anyone wants to come and dismantle it and re-assemble it at their own place, if its still useable. Otherwise someone might want it for fire wood or something.
Reply:Some councils will remove it for you..phone up and ask for the environmental dept.

Reply:get a load of old pallets(not the chep blue ones) of local warehouses throw them a few quid im sure the lads wont say no if the boss is out to lunch and build one from the old pallets. you have the laths and the battons, all you need is a saw hammer and nails or speed bit screws and a drill

Reply:Argos have some cheap stuff. If you want to try and find really cheap stuff then eBay may get you lucky. Also check out your local newspaper. They often have classified listings at the back.





Freecycle is website that allows people to give away things they no longer want, so you may find someone who is getting rid of a shed (you will probably have to dismantle it yourself)

Reply:Argos, Homebase, Ikea - all do cheap as well as expensive.





Also try looking in your local newspapers and Yellow Pages for Gardening Centres in your area.

Garden shed/ pool house question?

I'm considering building a shed as kind of a changing room/ hang out room by my pool. How much can i expect to spend assuming it will be about 8x12 and i'm doing the construction myself (also there wont be electricty or plumbing) Also how hard will it be to construct and where can i find a simplified verison of the codes that will apply.

You can find pre-fabricated storage buildings of that size at Home Depot, Sears, or any other home building center. Prices vary, depending on materials, quality, details.


If you put in a concrete slab for a floor by mixing and pouring your own concrete, it should cost you about $75 additional in materials.
