The garden shed can have many functions: playhouse, storage room, shelter to store bicycles, firewood, gardener shed and gardening tools, DIY workshop,... whatever the use you have, the garden shed must be secure and well equipped.

Maintaining your garden shed is essential

It must perfectly protect your belongings from cold, moisture, weather. Choose the model of shelter according to your budget (wood, metal, pvc) but also according to the place and the general aesthetics of your garden and home.


Remember to regularly maintain this small additional room in your garden: like any room, the garden shed must be emptied and cleaned every year. Check the roof cover, remove any clumps of dead leaves that could cause mold and attack the structure. Remove the mosses or mushrooms from a high pressure karcher blow for example.


If the roof has infiltrations, consider installing a waterproof and resistant roofing cover.

Replace your garden shed roof with a tarp

The PVC tarpaulin offers an ideal and accessible solution to replace a garden shed roof. Thanks to metal eyelets, the tarpaulin easily and durably attaches to the existing structure of your shelter. Bâches-direct offers a wide choice of sizes and colours: choose the right tarpaulin model for your storage space and effectively protect all family belongings stored inside.


It is advisable to install a tarpaulin roof on a garden structure whose roof is not completely flat: prefer a triangular or sloping roof shape to optimize the flow of rainwater. In case of flat and horizontal roof, the water stagnates and forms a pocket on the roof that can weaken the structure in case of heavy rain.
