Shire Garden Buildings

I am new here so I hope I am posting this in the correct Forum.
Has anyone purchased a shed/workshop manufactured by Shire Garden Buildings? I purchased mine through Elbec.
It has been a nightmare experience from the beginning. They didn't even provide sufficient glass.
The reason I am asking if anyone has actually purchased a shed from Shire is because I am not happy with the roof design and I am being fobbed-off with the excuse that all Shire sheds are designed this way.
It is a little difficult to explain without a photograph but in simple terms the apex roof does not meet at the ridge. I am left with a V between the roof panels and Elbec are saying that the shed will be waterproof after I've laid felt over 'it'. The IT being a gap!! Surely all apex roofs should meet at the ridge? The slightest hole in the roofing felt and rain would enter the shed.
Thoughts anyone?
Thanks,
Ken
