I am thinking about having a new shed built.
Nothing fancy, 12 foot x 8 foot made of concrete blocks and timber/felt roof.

Anyone have any idea what it would cost?

1 sheet of plywood @ £10
88 concrete blocks @ approx 50 pence each + VAT
Cement @ £6 per bag

we recently built two sheds,
1 was 9 x 6 metres, cost in blocks and cement was under £1000
1 was approx 30ft lomg 8 ft wide, cost for plywood and felt roof, £200 max.

hope this helps :)

Thanks Commore for your help, but I would not use Gunn's as not exactly environmentally friendly are they.
The way they left dunes after illegal excavations in Reiss was disgusting.

If you want to be earth friendly recycle a shed.

Would you need planning permission for such a block built shed?
