Overlap Sheds – more info
What is the difference between overlap and shiplap sheds?
verlap sheds are constructed from thick panels nailed to a vertical frame. It's a quick, cost-effective method of making a dry, secure shed perfect for storage. Shiplap sheds are made from tongue and groove panels with a protective lip to encourage water to run off, creating a weathertight seal for those who want to spend more time in their shed.
Are overlap sheds strong?
Waltons overlap sheds are built on a timber frame designed to withstand wind and weathering. Secured to a flat, level shed base, they're able to withstand regular use and provide a secure home for anything you're storing there. Any garden building will have its limits, but a well-constructed overlap shed satisfies all reasonable requirements.
How do I waterproof an overlap shed?
The first thing to do with any new shed is to treat it with good quality wood preserver or paint with a waterproof top coat. Refreshing this every year will ensure you have a longer-lasting, water-resistant building that protects your posessions from the rain.
