Product Information

Full details

The Dakota Fields Windowless Pressure Treated Tongue and Groove Apex Shed is an ideal storage solution for homeowners seeking a durable, long-lasting garden building. Featuring premium Scandinavian timber and a traditional apex roof, this shed offers generous headroom for larger items while providing complete protection against rot and pests through advanced pressure-treatment technology. Please note that while the timber is highly resistant, it still requires an annual application of a waterproofing topcoat to maintain its weather-resistant properties over time.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does the shed require a preservative?

The timber is pressure treated, meaning it is protected against rot and decay. However, you must apply a waterproofing topcoat annually.

What is the floor and roof made of?

The floor and roof are constructed from 10mm Solid OSB (Oriented Strand Board) for a stable, consistent surface.

Can I assemble this shed by myself?

It is highly recommended to have two people for assembly due to the weight of the timber panels and the need to maneuver them safely.

Where is the timber sourced from?

The timber is sourced exclusively from Scandinavia, which is chosen for its tight grain and high durability.

Is the floor included?

Yes, the shed comes with floor joists and an OSB floor included in the kit.

What tools will I need for assembly?

You will typically need a drill/driver, a hammer, a spirit level, a tape measure, and a ladder for fitting the roof felt.

Troubleshooting

Doors are sticking or not closing properly

Check if the base has shifted or is no longer level. Re-level the base and ensure the shed is square.

Water pooling on the roof

Ensure the roof felt was applied correctly with sufficient overlap and check that the building remains level.

Timber showing signs of moisture ingress

Ensure the annual waterproof topcoat has been applied. Re-seal any gaps with a suitable outdoor wood sealant.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Proper installation is critical for the long-term performance of your Dakota Fields shed.

Setup:

  1. Prepare a level, solid base (concrete, paving slabs, or a dedicated shed frame) to ensure stability.
  2. Carefully unpack all components and check them against the provided instructions.
  3. Assemble with a partner, as the shiplap panels and timber framing can be heavy.
  4. Use the provided full fixing kit to secure all sections according to the manual.

Care:

  • Annual Maintenance: Apply a high-quality waterproofing topcoat every year to ensure the exterior remains sealed against moisture.
  • Ventilation: Even though it is windowless, ensure the area around the shed is clear of overhanging branches or dense vegetation to promote airflow.
  • Inspection: Annually check the roof felt for any tears or loose areas and repair them immediately to prevent water ingress.
