Is that paste board  (shavings glued together ) you have on the sides ? if it is that will just disintegrate when it starts to get wet

roof = translucent panels from WICKS.....on offer at the moment ( £4.50 for an 8 x 2 sheet)....

 

The floor = Crazy paved floor with old trampoline cover and bark.........the timber is sat on bricks with a membrane

It is Sterling board with green wood preserve on it and 2 coates of external wood varnish.

 

I have another shed I built like this for my canaries.............and its been stood in all weather for over 7 years    ;).............  

 

 

left untreated.........you are quite right......it would just rot  :)
