Wooden Sheds: The Healthy Man's Choice

Wooden Sheds: The Healthy Man’s Choice

You may have noticed wooden sheds mentioned in smaller pieces of news recently (I won’t try and pretend wooden sheds are the nation’s number one concern, although they should be!). Having written a blog on the health benefits of wooden sheds, I would have to say we were then surprised to see the big wooden sheds story making the newspapers and even Breakfast on the BBC!

This isn’t to say we don’t think wooden sheds are important, but since we sell wooden sheds we’re probably biased! So what is it about this story that has shot the wooden shed to prominence?

I think there are two things, health now constantly gets plenty of coverage and there is something inherently British about the wooden shed. Even those who have never owned a wooden shed of their own seem to consider the wooden shed a heart-warming reminder of their own youth. Their own house might not have had a wooden shed, but their granddad or neighbour’s wooden shed would have been a magical and mysterious place.

On the health side of things, does a wooden shed help you live longer? While I think a wooden shed offers a great place to spend your time, I have my doubts; people who potter around doing things in their wooden sheds would probably still potter around doing things if they didn’t have a wooden shed. We certainly won’t be marketing our wooden sheds as lifesavers, or expecting NHS funding!

I would say the big reason to have a wooden shed is happiness. A wooden garden shed is a great place to spend your time, and more important than a living a long life is living a good one!

Live Longer with a Garden Shed from Elbec!

Live Longer with a Garden Shed from Elbec!

New research suggests that a garden shed could help you live longer. This might sound far-fetched at first, but we aren’t making this up to sell more garden sheds. In fact this research on garden sheds is due to be published in the British Medical Journal!

Pottering around doing odd jobs in your garden shed can help relieve stress. This means that owning a garden shed can lead to lower blood pressure. We here at Elbec don’t know as much about medicine as we do about garden sheds, but we do know high blood pressure is bad!

The health benefits of garden sheds are so apparent that there are 20 men’s sheds groups in the UK where the retired can get together in garden sheds for DIY and relaxing. This is taken from an Australian idea for garden sheds which has already featured in this very blog!

With garden sheds offering such a great benefit to your health, surely your only question is which is the right garden shed for me? And luckily for you, the Elbec Garden Buildings website makes it easy to find the right garden shed!

How Much Do You Know About Sheds

How Much Do You Know About Sheds

At the end of last week we posed a few questions about sheds for you, so let’s find out how much you know about sheds!

1.    The Shed is a stand at Stamford Bridge.
2.    Shed Productions produce the BBC show Waterloo Road.
3.    Shed Seven are from York.
4.    Slow grown timber is ideal as it is much higher quality.
5.    Treat your shed once a year to keep the elements at bay.
6.    A pent shed’s roof slopes one way, whereas an apex roof slopes down to the sides from a central ridge.

If you got all six correct, you clearly know your sheds. So why not reward yourself with a fantastic new shed from Elbec?

If you got 4 or 5, you have a very solid understanding of sheds. Spend a few minutes browsing here on the Elbec website and you’ll be an expert in no time.

If you got 3 or less, your lack of knowledge of sheds is worrying. You should think about putting some time in on the website learning more about sheds.

I hope you had fun taking part in our shed trivia quiz, and I hope you all scored well. Really there is nothing about sheds that you can’t learn here on the Elbec website, so if you don’t know as much as you thought get browsing the shed section now!

Shed Trivia For Your Bank Holiday Weekend!

Shed Trivia For Your Bank Holiday Weekend!

Let’s finish the week off with some shed related fun. Here are a few shed based trivia questions for you to ponder over the weekend! The first questions are based on the word shed, rather than sheds themselves.

1.    Which football ground has a stand called the shed?
2.    Shed Productions produce which current BBC school-based drama?
3.    From where in England do Britpop band Shed Seven hail?

And now for a few trivia questions which are actually about sheds!

4.    Which is the better timber for a shed to be produced from, fast grown or slow grown?
5.    How often should you treat your wooden shed to ensure it is always protected?
6.    What is the difference between a pent shed and an apex shed?

You can check back next week to find out how much you know about sheds!

Finally from me, I was recently reading about the Egyptian deity called Shed. Shed was also referred to as “Saviour”, and the Ancient Egyptians looked to Shed to cure illness and save them from danger. Here at Elbec we can’t promise that our sheds can do that, but we can promise that our sheds are of great quality at a low price!
