An estimate from the live bill of materials — a planning guide, not a quote. Open the planner for the full breakdown, cut list and assembly guide.

How the estimate is calculated

01

Real geometry, not a rate

We build the timber frame, cladding layout and roof for your exact dimensions, then price each part — so the total reflects real quantities, not a flat price per square metre.

02

A full bill of materials

Every estimate breaks down into cladding, framing timber, roofing, fixings, foundation and finishing — the same categories you'd take to a merchant.

03

Honest, adjustable numbers

Figures are material estimates that vary with your choices and finish. Change any option in the 3D planner and the cost, cut list and weight update instantly.

Frequently asked questions

What does the shed material calculator work out?

It computes the key quantities for your size: cladding area, framing timber in linear metres (including waste), wall and roof areas, and an estimated material weight. The full planner expands this into an itemised bill of materials with every part and quantity.

Does it include a cutting list?

The calculator shows the headline quantities; the optimised cut list — how to cut your timber to minimise offcuts — is generated in the 3D planner, along with the full bill of materials and assembly guide.

Can I change materials?

Yes. This estimate uses a WPC-clad, timber-framed default. In the planner you can switch cladding, framing sections, roof and foundation, and the material list and quantities update live.
