The Benefits of a Vinyl Storage Shed over Wood

Pros

  • maintenance free- no painting no staining,
  • Match the exterior of your home siding
  • All the soffit and facia is wrapped in aluminium, no wood showing
  • Never have to stain, seal and treat
  • Much smoother exterior No splinters!
  • easy to clean, either a hose it or power wash it down
  • The Vinyl material itself comes with a lifetime warrantee

But Consider This

  • Doesn’t give the choice of colors like wood does
  • Upon a closer look, you can tell it’s not wood
  • Slightly higher material cost (but you will probably break-even as you’ll have no expense with maintenance.)
