Hello,
the garden shed I ordered will be arriving soon. I have designated an area in the garden for it, where there are leftover building materials (curbstones, small concrete debris, and similar items). Gravel will be added on top of this and then compacted to create a stable base for the garden shed.
The garden shed comes with its own floor made of OSB3 panels and will be delivered with an underlying timber frame.
Now, I am thinking of placing the existing paving stones on the gravel, and then installing the timber frame on top of them. Or should something be placed between the paving stones and the timber frame?
Thanks for your feedback!

However, "Sweden red" is actually mineral-based, or even particularly mineral-based. I don’t know the original color by heart. I would check the composition of the paint. If "Sweden red" was only used as a color name, I would say to coat the inside just like with any other paint. The manufacturer of the small house should be able to provide that information.

A quick question because I’m about to build my garden shed soon.
The base is a paved area. My plan is to skip a substructure and floor inside the shed so that the paving acts as the shed’s floor.
I was thinking of placing rubber pads under the lowest log boards.
Is there any reason not to do this? I usually only see sheds with a substructure and wooden floor in pictures. Has no one had experience with something like this or seen it before?
The reasons are not only moisture drainage but also an almost barrier-free access.
