Elbec's Wooden Sheds Offer Great Value This January

Elbec’s Wooden Sheds Offer Great Value This January

With great offers on wooden sheds, Elbec offer you the perfect chance to get outside assembling a high quality wooden shed and then enjoy a well earned rest inside it! Of course if you don’t want to assemble your wooden shed yourself you can opt for our assembly service and have your brand new wooden shed put up for you!

Once you have your brand new wooden shed there are a wide variety of purposes you can use it for. The most common use for smaller wooden sheds being storage, a wooden shed offers a convenient place to store gardening tools.

Of course wooden sheds are also often used as workshops, with your wooden shed offering an extra room away from the house where you can relax or work in peace.

There are also plenty of more exciting ways to use your new wooden shed. Earlier this week I spoke to a customer who is looking at our professional range of wooden sheds. This customer is looking to put a TV and beer fridge in his wooden shed for the ultimate place to relax!

So head to the Wooden Sheds section of the website right now to browse our range of wooden sheds, with wooden sheds available to suit almost any purpose!

Happy New Shed To All

Happy New Shed To All

I enjoyed my break from selling sheds over the holiday period, but that’s not to say I’m not excited about selling even more fantastic sheds in the New Year. With fantastic wooden sheds, plastic sheds and metal sheds available, Elbec really is the best place to start your new year with a new shed!

A shed might even be the perfect storage space for all those Christmas decorations you’ll be taking down. Or even better, a new shed might keep you active in the garden after a bit too much Christmas turkey and a few too many New Years drinks!

Of course with the recent weather there is the chance your shed has been blown away! We can’t make a completely weatherproof shed, but we can offer you sturdy and well constructed sheds that will stand up to the weather better than most sheds.

Or maybe you haven’t spent all your Christmas money and a shed would be the perfect choice. After all, as a Christmas present a shed is far too difficult to wrap for you to have it on the day!

Whatever your reason for getting a new garden shed, and whatever you want to store in it, we are sure that you will find the perfect shed for you on the Elbec website.

Buying a Shed during the Holidays

Buying a Shed during the Holidays

One thing you might not realise about the world of sheds is that many of the shed manufacturers shut down completely during the Christmas break. This means sheds are not built for a couple of weeks, so new shed orders are not started until January.

However, our sales line will be open all weekdays next week, so you can make sure your shed is top of the queue when our shed suppliers start up production again. The hours will be slightly reduced, so check the website for opening times before you call to buy your shed!

The other great reason to buy a shed over the Christmas period is that many of our high quality sheds are currently heavily discounted, meaning you can get a great value for money shed if you order today.

So why not give our sales team a call as soon as possible, they know everything you could need to know about sheds and you won’t find a friendlier sales team at any other retailer of sheds.

Here at Elbec we offer a full range of wooden sheds, metal sheds and plastic sheds, so you can be sure to find a great shed for you. If you want something even more special than an Elbec shed, we also have a fantastic range of Shire log cabin!

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!

Elbec Wooden Sheds Make Great Gifts

Elbec Wooden Sheds Make Great Gifts

With Christmas just a month away, now is the time to buy a fantastic Elbec wooden shed as a gift. Our wooden sheds can be there in time for Christmas, and an Elbec wooden shed makes a great present!

The high quality construction of our wooden sheds will really show you care, while our prices on wooden sheds are so low only Santa can offer a better deal. But then again, we’re not sure how Santa will get a wooden shed down the chimney.

I’m also not convinced that Santa offers an assembly service on wooden sheds; the big man shed assembly days are probably behind him. So why not order a wooden shed from Elbec with assembly? Then we can focus on putting up your wooden shed, and leave the drinking brandy and eating mince pies to Santa (we prefer beer anyway)!

The great thing about a wooden shed is that you will get much more use out of a wooden shed than any other gift. Even when you are not actively using your wooden shed, your wooden shed will be out there, helpfully storing things.

So have a look at our great selection of Wooden Sheds now. There is still time to order a wooden shed and receive it before Christmas. And just think, by ordering a wooden shed from Elbec, you will avoid Santa having to haul a wooden shed around!

Reasons to Think About Santa When Buying a Shed

Reasons to Think About Santa When Buying a Shed

If you are currently looking for a shed, then by the time you have bought and erected your shed it will be pretty close to Christmas. The big question is: have you considered Santa at all when choosing your shed?

There are plenty of reasons why your choice of shed might affect Santa. Firstly, will there be enough space to park his sleigh in your new shed? Spending the night flying around the world is tiring, so a nice shed for the reindeers to keep sheltered while he delivers your presents would really be appreciated.

Secondly, is your new shed going to be cosy enough for Santa to have a little rest? Santa loves to kick back in a warm shed and sink a brandy in between house calls. The big thing to remember is tongue and groove sheds will keep the draughts away from Santa.

Finally, does your shed look stylish? It’s very easy to think of a shed as somewhere to store things, but when Santa and his reindeer are relaxing in a shed, they like it to be a nice one. With all those presents to deliver I’m sure you’ll agree Santa deserves a luxurious shed from our professional range.

So as we head towards Christmas, remember to think about Santa when buying a shed. Any shed is appreciated for a break, but the more comfortable the shed, the better!

(Brandy and mince pies sold separately)
