All of our standard buildings are supplied externally treated to provide initial protection during delivery and installation.
To maintain the longevity of your building, it is essential that you apply a high-quality timber treatment immediately after installation, and then re-treat annually.
Regular treatment helps protect against moisture ingress, fungal decay, and weathering — ensuring your building stays strong and looks its best for years to come.
Our standard coated buildings come with a 10-year anti-rot guarantee as standard, giving you complete peace of mind that your investment is protected.
To keep your guarantee valid, you must:
This simple maintenance routine prevents fungal attack and decay, helping your building perform and look great throughout its life.
For even greater protection, our tanalised (pressure-treated) buildings come with a 15-year anti-rot guarantee.
This enhanced longevity is achieved through a deep pressure treatment process, which forces preservative chemicals into the timber for long-lasting protection against rot, mould, and insect attack — even in harsh weather conditions.
While no annual brush-on treatment is required for rot protection, we still recommend applying a water-repellent wood oil or treatment periodically to maintain the colour and finish of your building.

If you're unsure whether access is suitable, our friendly team will be happy to advise before you place your order.
A strong, level base is essential for a successful installation. We recommend one of the following options:
Your base must be level, firm, and completed before installation. An uneven or poorly prepared base can affect the alignment, operation, and long-term performance of your building. If you need advice on preparing your base, our team will be happy to help before delivery.

Our story dates back to 1945, when our great-grandfather began producing sectional timber buildings known for their durability and quality. Building on that tradition, the next generation took things further — in 1965, our father established his own company, dealing in second-hand poultry houses. These structures quickly became sought after as robust, affordable garden buildings, loved for their strength and value.
As demand grew, he recognised the need to manufacture new timber buildings, marking a bold step forward in the business. By the late 1970s, the company was supplying a wide range of sectional buildings across the UK, including those used as site huts and work shelters. Over time, our reputation for dependable construction and practical design became firmly established, earning the trust of customers nationwide.
When portable buildings began to dominate the market in the mid-1980s, we evolved again — expanding our range to include garden sheds, garages, field shelters, and stables, continuing our reputation for quality and reliability. Each new product reflected our commitment to combining traditional craftsmanship with modern techniques and materials.
Today, that same pioneering spirit drives Direct Sectional Buildings. Even after the passing of our father in 2022, his legacy of hard work, honesty, and attention to detail remains at the heart of everything we do. The business is now proudly run by his sons, who have been involved from the time they could walk — growing up around the workshop, learning the trade from the ground up, and understanding every aspect of the business inside out. Their lifelong experience ensures the same family values and craftsmanship continue to guide every building we create.
With over 75 years of experience and four generations of family craftsmanship, we’re proud to deliver strong, reliable, and beautifully built timber buildings — made in Britain and built to last.
If you have a particular design or layout in mind, we’d love to hear from you. Simply fill in the contact form with your requirements, and a member of our friendly team will get back to you with expert advice and a free, no-obligation quote.
