Same thing happened when my parents bought their house - all the electrics fused when a light switch was flicked as they had just cut all the wires. The owners tried to take the ceiling high Welsh dresser until it was pointed out that it was a fixture as it is fixed to the wall. They did take the wrought iron gates from the driveway and side of the house, even though they were included in the sale. Most bizarrely the last load they took from the house was an entire estate car full of boxes of unripe apples, plums and hazelnuts.0 -
Thanks for everyone's answers and advice - had a good chuckle too!
Rang the company up - great fella I spoke to. Had a good laugh (think he might just have been asked the same question before) then explained how to get the damned thing apart and where the installers would have been taught to fire in the nails... So although it will be a much bigger job than taking apart a shed erected with bolts, it's possible to do and we shall grab the tools kindly linked to us in the thread.
Won't be buying another shed for a few years hopefully but if we do we shall ask for one that's easy to take down - can't be doing with all the added malarkey we've had from this one.
Great well built shed, yes, until you want to move the damned thing... Hence rubbish shed!!!!
Thanks again all... And thanks for reminding me about wallpaper. And other house moving aggro

I'm hoping after reading some of the replies on here, you're not still of that viewpoint.
You're effectively judging the shed as rubbish all because its less convenient to do something thats not really in the purpose/functionality of a shed. Its like saying your office shoes are rubbish because they're not comfortable to hike in iyswim?You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means - Inigo Montoya, The Princess Bride0 -

I thought a shed was classed as a non-permanent structure. Anyway, I am now educated on the degree of permanence belonging to a desirable shed amongst the most knowledgable and least argumentative forumites at mse, and thank you for shedding some light on my apparent sheddy knowledge about shed construction and function. Much obliged kind sir! Consider me educated and the shed as a permanent construction.... Tongue and groove. We are still taking the damned thing with us mind.
My thread has almost become Shedgate scandal lmao....0 -

A permanent construction is something that is fixed to the ground (like a house). A temporary structure is something that is not fixed into the ground.
It has SFA to do with how easy something is to dismantle.You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means - Inigo Montoya, The Princess Bride0
