16x8 Sheds UK
Garden Buildings Direct is a leading manufacturer of garden sheds, including our 16x8 shed range. With a number of features and design styles to choose from, we’re sure to offer a 16x8 garden shed that's perfect for you.
Choose between apex or pent roofs, with an apex roof offering a traditional aesthetic and extra internal headroom, while a pent roof highlights a more modern, stylish look with a gently sloping incline.
Choose between windowed or windowless 16x8 sheds, with a windowed shed offering additional natural sunlight - excellent to improve visibility when performing DIY tasks. Meanwhile, the windowless shed alternative offers additional security and privacy for your valuables stored within.

Choosing the Right Type of Shed for You
Here are some of our most popular shed styles
All of our sheds are patio-friendly, perfect for placement on concrete, brick, or slabbed patio areas. As long as your patio is large enough for your chosen size of shed (we have some very large ones), you should be fine to commence with building.
Please bear in mind that if your patio is not completely level, an extra base may be required to give the shed a flat surface to stand on.
If you have wooden decking rather than a patio, check out this guide: Can I Put a Shed on Decking?
Need storage on a tighter budget? This range focuses on the essentials — practical space, sensible specs, and strong value. Even our lowest-priced wooden sheds still come with our 10-year guarantee, so you don’t have to compromise on peace of mind.
If you need to budget carefully, our selection of cheap sheds is where you want to look.
FAQs
Since 2020, we no longer have a physical showroom and all trade is conducted online. Our website shows previews of every size of building with precise measurements to make it easy for you to make an informed buying decision.
When you visit a product page, changing between sizes will immediately show you what the exact size looks like.
We don’t currently offer a shed installation service. Our garden sheds are supplied for self-assembly and include full fitting instructions.
Delivery is available within Great Britain. Delivery charges can apply depending on your postcode zone — please see our delivery information page for full details.
Usually, no. Most UK properties are allowed sheds as 'permitted developments' with no planning permission required, provided they are not placed in a front garden or exceed height limits. If you live in a listed property, a conservation area, or are unsure about boundary rules, please read our quick guide to shed planning permission to double-check before ordering.
When we say a 'base', we mean a surface that is:
- Flat (check with a spirit level)
- Solid (bricks, slabs, concrete, or a base kit. NOT soil, grass or loose gravel)
- With drainage (it doesn't have to be raised, but rainwater has to be able to leave the area.)
So yes, all sheds require a base.
It is important that a shed stands in a location where it will be able to easily remain upright without undue stress on the structure, and where it won't be absorbing water. Our wooden sheds all come with pressure treated floor bearers which raise the floor slightly above the ground, so you can place yours straight onto a level patio or reinforced decking without issue.
If your designated shed location is currently soft, you could level this out and use our Ecobase product to save you the work of landscaping.
The size of your shed depends on how you plan to use it. Whether you need space for tools, a workshop, or even a garden office, we offer sheds in a range of sizes to fit your space. Use our shed size guide to find the perfect match for your garden.
16x8 Wooden Sheds
Our 16 x 8 wooden sheds are designed to last for years to come. Choose between tongue and groove or overlap cladding - both of which offer a high level of weather resistance and waterproofing. Our 16x8 sheds are also incredibly versatile and can be applied to a number of uses. From workshops to tall stores, there's bound to be a style for you.
Choice Of Roof Designs
Our wood sheds also come in three distinct roof shapes: pent, apex, and reverse apex. For a modern style, a pent roof offers a contemporary silhouette whereas, the alternatives tend to look more traditional. However, the innovative design allows for excellent runoff no matter which one you choose.
Quality Timber Products
Our range of garden storage options come in either overlap or tongue and groove cladding types to suit your budget. All models, however, utilise robust framing and excellent materials carefully pre-assembled by our skilled craftsmen. Simply follow the final assembly instructions to construct your purchase upon delivery.

With wide-opening double doors, our 16 x 8 wooden garden sheds often find use as potting sheds, somewhere to keep bikes secure, a space for garden equipment and even garden furniture, and workshops. But the possibilities are endless. Suit yours to your garden setting then customise it with internal shelving and gorgeous paint colours available as customisable extras.
