The Hay Handyman’s rebuild brief
The Hay Handyman was commissioned to rebuild two field shelters that had been caught by the wind and badly damaged. After working out a plan as to how best reduce the cost, it was concluded that as much of the original shelters were to be reused whilst also making them bigger, stronger and secure.
If you have a project or would like more information on our services you can contact us or view our past property services and property maintenance works completed by The Hay Handyman using the links below.
On consult with the client the decision was to make the two shelters into one larger store, secure it in place and add a metal roof that will ensure it gets the maximum usage and lifespan. Blocking off one of the doors would reduce cost and add considerable strength by having what would have been an opening now a solid wall.
The frame went up to form the structural shape and strength allowing us to us the existing panels that were not too badly damaged. These could be used to infill and create the shed form. The frame was fixed to the ground at the corners to make it secure and reduced the risk of the wind lifting the shed again. Once the form was created the metal roof was ordered and then installed. Unfortunately the day we chose to install was one of the wettest of the week.
