A versatile middle-sized shed
Ten by seven feet offers a useful compromise between a long store and a square workroom. Wooden, metal and plastic designs use apex roofs, so decide whether central headroom or low-profile placement matters more. Plan shelves along the walls and leave a clear approach to the door. The whole building needs a sound base. For more depth, compare 10 x 8 ft sheds.

Buying ready-made is about £1,445 cheaper than the materials to build it yourself. Factory-made buildings use lighter framing and thinner boards than a self-build, so building your own makes sense if you want it heavier-duty or a custom size.
The self-build figure uses our standard specification for this type of building, priced from a full materials list: framing, floor, cladding, roof, door and fixings. It excludes tools and your time.
Price a 10 x 7 ft shed in the builderThe base you will need
A 10 x 7 ft shed needs a firm, level base at least 10 x 7 ft. Most guarantees depend on it. A concrete slab or paving lasts longest. A plastic grid filled with gravel is quicker, drains well and needs no concrete.

Planning permission and Building Regulations
- Most garden buildings do not need planning permission in England and Wales if they are behind the front of the house and, with any other outbuildings, cover no more than half the garden.
- Within 2 m of a boundary the whole building, base included, must be no taller than 2.5 m. Further away, the limit is 4 m for an apex roof or 3 m for other roofs, and the eaves must stay under 2.5 m. Check the height on the product page before you order.
- At about 6.5 m², a shed this size is exempt from Building Regulations as long as nobody sleeps in it.
