About this building
A fantastic alternative to traditional slate, slate-effect tiles are a lightweight, affordable option for those wanting to achieve the appearance of a slate roof. The tiles are easy to install, come in a range of colour options and are much easier to maintain. Our slate-effect tiles are the ideal solution when seeking an attractive, hassle-free roofing choice for your garden room. As versatile as mono-pitched garden rooms are, it always excites us when we get to explore buildings that have an apex roofline. The pitched roof enhances the character and feel of this particular garden room.

The Second Number is the Gable Wall
If a shed is listed as 8×6, the 6ft side is the gable. If it is 6×8, the 8ft side is the gable.
Pent Sheds: The second measurement tells you which side slopes from high to low.
Apex Sheds: The second measurement tells you which side comes to a triangular peak.
The second measurement is always the gable end.
In Detail
Pitched roofs are a fantastic choice for those seeking to create a more traditional look and can be coordinated stylishly with classic bespoke homes. All our buildings are fitted by expert craftspeople and are extremely long lasting due to the high quality weather resistant treatment and robust build. Thanks to the sloped design of the pitched roof, rainwater drains away easily. Slate-effect felt tiles are easily installed, lightweight (3mm thickness, approx. 10kg/sq m) and available in Black, Grey, Green and Red.

Pressure Treated Timber
The external cladding for our garden rooms is tanalised pressure treated timber. The wood is placed in preservative and then put into a vacuum, forcing the preservative deep inside so it gets completely saturated — protecting against damp and insects.
After pressure treatment, our timber goes through a controlled drying process where each piece is latted to allow air flow until it reaches a moisture content of 9–12%. This prevents shrinking and cracking.
All Vista buildings are treated with a microporous oil treatment sealant that allows the timber to breathe but doesn't allow water penetration. This needs reapplying once or twice a year — before winter and before summer — for best results.
10 Year Warranty
All our buildings come with a 10 year warranty for your complete peace of mind. Please see our Terms and Conditions for full details.
