Build it yourself, Chris. You'll build it how you want and it's very satisfying.
I built the new side of the loft, and I'm 70, with bad lungs and half a hand missing. A bit of help on the heavy lifting and you can do all sorts of things. :D

Plenty of time Chris - your not gonna make racing this year, so you got until next year. Get your house done first mate - keep the other half happy, then everyone's happy!

It's the same here, mate. The price of building materials has gone through the roof. But it's hard to build a shed out of thin air.
But I'm a believer in do it once, do it properly and it is cheaper in the long run. :D
