I would estimate €8-10k based on direct labour build and my own recent build. Concrete and blocks surprisingly expensive. I paid by day for a reliable guy and he finished it in 33 working days. Plastering and electric plus roller door added cost. Mine was about 4m x 7m.

I had a 14'x17' shed erected in half a day by Kelly Sheds.

As long as you have a concrete base (or they can do this for you).

They arrive in the truck, go at it, hop back on the truck and are gone. Result, a perfect concrete shed, dashed outside.

I think the cost was €5k, about 3 years ago.

The shed is great. It consists of 6'x2' pre-dashed concrete panels that are bolted together, and a corrugated onduline roof.

Much cheaper than building one myself, and better than a metal or wooden one imho.

The only things I had to do was seal the base, where the panels meet the floor. If I had put in a lip around the base when I was having it pored, I would not have had do to this. And put in guttering.
