Troubleshooting

Shed panels do not align during assembly

Ensure the base is perfectly level and that you are following the assembly instructions precisely. Minor adjustments to panel positioning might be needed before final fixing.

Water ingress or leaks

Check that all joints are sealed correctly and that the roof cladding is properly overlapped. Ensure the apex roof is correctly assembled for optimal water runoff. Reapply sealant if necessary.

Shed door sticks or does not close properly

Check for any warping in the wood or obstructions. Ensure hinges are correctly aligned and tightened. The base may need leveling if the shed has settled unevenly.

Floor seems weak or is sagging

Confirm the heavy-duty floor has been installed correctly according to instructions. Ensure the base beneath the shed is stable and level to provide adequate support.
