How a Tiger Shed Kept Colin Coming Back Again
Published: 07/07/2021
Many of our satisfied customers come back to purchase new or additional Tiger buildings – and Colin Brown and his wife are no exception. Back in March 2020, Colin bought a Tiger Shiplap Pent for general use. But he was so impressed by the quality of his storage shed that he wanted more…
Colin knows a thing or two about gardening (and sheds)
Colin and his wife are a retired couple who love gardening. “In fact, I had my own gardening business before I retired,” Colin says. “Having been a professional gardener for many years, I like to think I know a thing or two about sheds.”
This is where Colin’s Tiger story begins…
“When we needed to replace our old shed, I wasn’t going to settle for any old thing – even if we only needed it to store garden tools and machinery. “We looked online for ideas and we came across Tiger Sheds. They looked really good value for the money, so we ordered the Shiplap Pent."
And this is how it continues…
“Fast forward a year later to the start of 2021 and we decided we would like another Tiger building! “We ordered the Tiger Penthouse – and we chose to turn it into a cabin we could sit in at any time of the day.”
Why did Colin choose not to paint his Penthouse?
“We both liked the ‘Burnt Orange’ colour the shed was painted in. “For this reason, we decided to use antique pine wood stain to ensure the original colour was much the same, even though it was now protected from the elements.”
How do Colin and his wife use the Penthouse?
Colin says, “We love to sit and look out into the garden so we can see our flowers and what birds come into the garden. “Plus, one of our dogs has her own bed in the cabin as she loves it so much.”
Were the shed and Penthouse easy to put together?
“It took us about a day to put both the Tiger Shiplap Pent and the Penthouse together. It was surprisingly quick and easy in both cases. “We love Tiger Sheds so we’d definitely recommend them to our friends.”
