Shedding
Truth to tell, the garden shed has given me its all. It wasn’t in terribly good condition when I bought the house, and that was over six years ago. It’s badly sited; the roof doesn’t get enough sun to keep the moss from growing, on account of a large tree nearby. Furthermore, the shed is directly in the path of water that runs into the drainage ditch behind the house. Consequently, the floor really ought to be up on risers, but isn’t.
It’s not hard to see, then, why I wasn’t terribly surprised that there’s a hole in the roof. Housemate assured me that it wouldn’t be too difficult to fix…all it needs is some plywood and shingles. So, while I was home for lunch this afternoon, I looked out and saw what looked as though it might’ve been a sheet of plywood lying on the ground by the shed.
Except it wasn’t.
One of the doors had fallen off. Housemate is fairly certain he can fix that, too, but he also pointed out that it ought to be on risers, and both of us had enough questions about its structural integrity before the door fell off that I don’t know if it’s a good idea to even try. Personally, I think that Murphy is rarely so kind as to give that much advanced, crystal-clear warning of an imminent disaster, and I ought to just replace—and resite—the shed.
So…any advice on shed replacement from the Reading Public?
