Northern Garden Sheds Ltd

In Blaydon, west of Newcastle, Northern Garden Sheds Ltd makes timber sheds, summerhouses, and other garden buildings. The family-run company was established in 2011 and combines its own workshop with a display area where customers can view units on Saturdays. Its range spans sheds in different styles, corner buildings, custom options, and summerhouse models.

Timber and construction methods are central to the company’s offering. According to its specifications, buildings are made with slow-grown, pressure-treated timber and are available with 19- or 22-millimeter tongue-and-groove walls or a 28-millimeter loglap finish. The company also lists a standard 3-by-2-inch timber frame and an optional upgrade to a 4-by-2-inch roof frame.

A 19-millimeter tongue-and-groove floor is standard, along with timber roof boards and mineral felt roofing. Northern says it does not use OSB, plywood, or chipboard in its buildings. That gives buyers a specific point to compare with other models before choosing dimensions, wall thickness, windows, and finishes.

The range is not limited to a rectangular shed. The company’s site organizes options with apex and pent roofs, corner buildings, and summerhouses, as well as timber buildings and PVC and aluminum lines. It also publishes optional extras and requirements for the base and garden access. Site preparation matters: the company calls for a level base and enough clearance to carry panels in and work around the building.

Northern Garden Sheds offers delivery and installation. Installation is included within 50 miles of the workshop for orders placed directly with the company; delivery and installation can be arranged up to 220 miles for an additional charge, and nationwide delivery-only options are also available. Terms depend on the order and location, so confirm the service area before choosing a model.

The company also publishes a 12-month guarantee for its sheds and summerhouses, including the felt roofing. Pressure-treated timber arrives wet and needs time to dry after installation; Northern recommends leaving doors and windows open to encourage airflow and waiting before using or insulating the building. These first-use instructions explain how the material changes during its early weeks outdoors.

The workshop and display area are at Unit 3, Blaydon Park Industrial Estate, Chain Bridge Road, Blaydon-on-Tyne, NE21 5ST. The contact page distinguishes Saturday display hours from office hours, and the company asks visitors to call ahead because staff may be out making deliveries. From this base in northeast England, it ships to other parts of the UK, with availability and cost determined by distance and order type.
