SKILLION ROOF SHEDS
Simple. Modern. Built for real life.
A skillion roof shed gives you a clean, modern look that suits the Fleurieu perfectly.
The single-pitch fall creates a sleek profile, excellent water run-off, and the height you need
for caravans, boats, machinery and everything else you want out of the weather.
With ShedEx Fleurieu, your project is handled from start to finish by one experienced local builder –
design, engineering, council approvals, slab and construction. No juggling trades. No guesswork.

Custom options for your skillion roof shed
Every shed is designed to suit your block, your vehicles and your lifestyle.
- Wall heights up to 5m (subject to council approval)
- Single, double and multi-bay layouts
- Roller doors up to 5m x 5m
- Personal access (PA) doors and windows
- Insulation and internal lining options
- Mezzanine floors and storage platforms
- Internal walls and layout tweaks to suit your setup
- Lean-to awnings and extensions
- Full COLORBOND® colour selection for roof and walls
- Roof pitches tailored to your property and solar plans
We don’t use steel sliding doors – they don’t hold up in our coastal conditions.
Instead, we use roller doors that are more secure, reliable and easier to operate over the long term.

What affects the cost of a skillion shed?
Every property is different, so we price each shed individually. The main things that affect cost are:
- Overall size and wall height
- Number and size of roller doors
- Slab thickness, edge beams and footings
- Soil conditions and site access
- Council requirements and engineering
- Windows, insulation and internal fit-out options
Our quotes clearly outline what’s included, and cover design, engineering, approvals, slab and construction. That means fewer surprises and a clearer picture of your total project cost from the start.

Will a skillion roof suit my block?
Here’s a quick checklist to help:
- Your block slopes mostly in one direction
- You want a modern, simple look rather than a traditional style
- You need extra height for a caravan, boat or truck
- You’d like a roof that works well with solar panels
- You prefer a clean, low-maintenance roofline
Not sure if a skillion or gable roof is best? We’ll talk you through the pros and cons for your site and plans.

Skillion vs gable – which suits you?
Skillion roof sheds
- Clean, modern profile
- Simple structure and water run-off
- Excellent for extra height on one side
- Great for solar when oriented well
- Ideal for coastal and contemporary homes
Gable roof sheds
- More traditional look
- Extra headroom in the centre
- Good cross-ventilation options
- Works well for large, general-purpose sheds
- Often favoured on farms and rural properties
You don’t need to decide alone. In your design meeting we’ll look at your block, your home and your vehicles, then recommend the roof style that makes the most sense for you.

Common mistakes to avoid
Some of the biggest shed regrets we hear about could have been avoided with better advice up front.
- Buying a kit, then discovering the slab and footings cost more than expected
- Choosing a shed that is not tall enough for the caravan or boat
- Underestimating the impact of coastal conditions on cheaper materials
- Organising trades separately and getting caught in delays and finger-pointing
- Not allowing for future use – like extra storage, hobbies or family events
Our job is to help you avoid these headaches. We’ll talk through how you want to use the shed now and in the future, so you get it right the first time.

Your 5-step skillion shed process
1. Quick chat and site visit
We start with a friendly phone call, then a site visit where practical.
We listen to what you want, look at the block and talk through initial ideas.
2. Design and costing
We draw your shed in our design software, confirm sizes and layout,
and prepare a clear, written quote that covers the full build scope.
3. Council approval
We organise the site plan, engineering, documentation and lodgement.
You stay informed, but you don’t have to wrestle the paperwork.
4. Slab and construction
Our concreters prepare and pour the slab. Once cured, our team erects the shed, fits doors and flashings, and completes the main construction.
5. Handover
We walk you through the finished shed, answer any questions, and make sure you’re happy with the result. Then it’s over to you to start enjoying the space.
