How Much Does a Garden Shed Cost in Edinburgh?

Here are typical prices for our most popular garden sheds in Edinburgh. All prices include VAT, free delivery and professional installation: • 6×4 Pent Shed — from £1,200 • 8×6 Apex Shed — from £1,800 • 8×6 Pressure Treated Shed — from £2,200 • 10×8 Workshop Shed — from £3,200 • 12×8 Heavy Duty Workshop — from £4,500 • Insulated Garden Office (10×8) — from £6,000 • Summerhouse (10×10) — from £5,500 • Log Cabin (various sizes) — from £4,000

Several factors influence the final cost: Size — bigger sheds use more timber and take longer to build. Doubling the floor area roughly doubles the material cost. Timber Grade & Treatment — pressure-treated timber costs more upfront but saves money long-term by eliminating annual re-treatment. Cladding Style — tongue-and-groove and loglap cost more than basic overlap but provide better weatherproofing. Base Preparation — if you don't have an existing level base, you'll need one installed: • Concrete slab (6×4) — from £400 • Concrete slab (8×6) — from £600 • Concrete slab (10×8) — from £900 • Compacted gravel — typically 20–30% less than concrete

Common upgrades that add to the cost include: • Internal shelving and workbenches • Electrical wiring (lighting, sockets) • Security features (deadlocks, window bars) • Insulation packages • Painted or stained finishes • Old shed removal and disposal

Edinburgh shed prices are broadly in line with the Scottish average but can be slightly higher due to access challenges in older properties (tenement gardens, conservation areas, narrow closes) and the premium timber grades recommended for our wetter climate. However, our prices include delivery and full installation — something many online retailers charge extra for.

• Choose the right size first time — upgrading later means buying a whole new shed. • Invest in pressure-treated timber — it eliminates annual treatment costs. • Get a proper base — a level base prevents structural damage that leads to costly repairs. • Bundle base + shed + installation — our all-in-one service is more cost-effective than separate contractors.
