When we bought our place it had a 10' X 10' plastic shed on it.
It was on a fir 4X4 foundation on piers.
The 4X4s were in very poor condition and have deteriorated badly since.
The shed is close to being called collapsing.
I am in the process of making a new pad to move it to, and will use a different foundation for it.
Plus, the pad will have enough space to erect another larger shed beside the old one.
So, my quandary:
I can purchase a larger shed for a lower cost if I get a galvanized sheet steel shed with a plasticized finish on it.
They do come with a 10 to 15 year warranty.
Yeah, I know, try to get warranty performance here in Paradise.
Intuitively, a plastic shed does sound like a better choice for our windward side climate.
But, experience seems to indicate that might be wrong as long as I don't drive the lawn tractor through the back wall.
Anyone that has experience with the sheet metal sheds:
Are they durable in our Puna Paradise climate?
Any other thoughts on plastic vs sheet metal?

Was a Democrat until gun control became a knee jerk, then a Republican until the crazies took over, back to being a nonpartisan again.
This time, I can no longer participate in the primary.
