    Argos have a wide range of sheds of various types -- see on http://www.argos.ie

    Not sure how they compare in price with other suppliers though.

    Swan Garden Sheds in Ardfinnan, Tipperary. 10 years since I got a shed from them. At my request they insulated the under floor for me (put a double floor in) and installed doubleglazed door and window - which cost about the same as the shed. I drylined and insulated it myself. It has had a computer set up in there for 9 or 10 years, and it still starts up no problem on the odd occasion I use it.

    My partner and I own an apartment and space can be tight but once we dealt with Kelly's (above link) this was sorted and found them VERY friendly indeed.

    OP, if you're looking at low cost, then a wooden shed is not for you. The floor is not strong enough to take the constant pounding of the treadmill.

    You'll need something with a stronger floor. The Clane sheds have a steel subframe with I think 30mm think plywood floor. Very little movement

    Argos sheds(metal ones) are utter rubbish.

    They take forever to put together and dont fit well,oh and they leak,even though the purpose of a shed is to keep out water and keep stuff dry.

    well i was thinkin of actually constructiong a concrete floor then fixing batons to the floor then fixing a wooden shed to that, without the floor supplied by the shed company of course.

    Martron - Take a spin up to Jones's garden center (Donabate turn-off at the Lissenhall junction).

    You could also take a look at www.abwood.ie for styles & prices.
