Outdoor Living
Sheds
A storage building on a foundation, not a box set on dirt.
What it covers
Pad or pier foundation, framed walls, siding and trim matched to the house, roofing, doors and hardware, electrical rough-in coordination.
The detail
How it's built.
The building is straightforward. The ground under it is not, and that's where the money should go.
Clay soil across this region expands and contracts through the year. Anything set directly on it rides that movement — which is fine for a plastic tub and ruinous for a framed building with doors that need to stay square.
Matching the house matters more than people expect. Siding, trim, and roof that echo the main structure make a shed read as part of the property. A mismatched kit building reads as clutter forever.
A shed on dirt is a shed with an expiration date.
What goes wrong
Blackland clay moves. It swells wet and shrinks dry, every year. A building with no foundation moves with it, and by the second wet season the doors stop closing.
Questions
- Do I need a permit for a shed?
- It depends on size and on your city, and sometimes on the HOA as well. We check all three before quoting.
- Can you run power to it?
- We coordinate the rough-in so it's ready. That's much simpler done during the build than trenched in afterward.
