Default Shed building costs

The "shed", which had been extended randomly, has finally given up with the roof falling in and a couple of walls falling over.

I'm looking for an approximate costing for a 10m x 4m block built and rendered agricultural shed with screeded concrete floor, concrete beamed roof (for later addition of solar water) to be built on a cleared site, any ideas?

Hi, my brother-in-law is a builder, so he could give you a quote. Would you like me to ask him for you? Where do you live. He is based in Tavira.

Yes please. We don't need a formal quote just an estimated cost to work out where best to spend our limited funds. It's near Pombal quite far from Tavira.

Door(s), windows, power, drainage, water supply, roof type, internal finish, external finish, insulation, prefix for solar etc

The blocks and concrete are easy to calculate, just ask your local builders merchants for local prices. All of the above factors will vary the cost so it's impossible to even guess final cost without more info other than to say it's between 3500 and 20,000 depending on spec.

It's a shed to replace a shed which has collapsed due to wood worm in the roof beams and of the same dimensions so no permission needed. two spaces for doorways, no windows, no power, no water, no drainage rendered block walls internal and external finish. No wood anywhere, Roof of concrete beams using the old tiles

Does anyone know what's the maximum area of a shed type structure you can construct without needing planning permission? I've 4m x 4m structure in mind. If anyone has experience in building a conical/circular type roof, I'd love to hear from you.
