Many people lack the storage space they need to secure their valuables or a quiet place to work from home.  Trying to design additional space and finding an expert builder may seem overwhelming. 

We believe the process of designing and acquiring additional space should not be complicated, so we invested in a 3D Shed Configurator which allows you to easily design and visualize your shed before purchase. Our growing network of freelance builders allows you to hire expert craftsmen who follow our material and structural guidelines so you can easily and confidently invest in additional space and achieve the life of your dreams.

Foundation and site prep

For a shed to remain structurally sound over a long period of time it needs to have a solid base. This can be accomplished in a number of ways, but some of the most common are: cement blocks, installing a stone pad, or installing a concrete slab. ​

Cement Block Gridwork

Stone Pad (3/4" crushed stone 4 - 6 inch deep)

Concrete Pad (reinforced with rebar)

About Sustainability

Many trees are cut down every year to support the construction industry including the building of backyard sheds. Cutting down many trees can lead to deforestation which not only destroys whole ecosystems of plants and animals but can destroy the lives and economies that local villagers depend on. 

We believe every business should strive to create thriving, sustainable systems of operation in the world, because of this, we help fund Eden Reforestation Projects.
​
Eden Reforestation Projects restores not only forests but also reduces extreme poverty by employing local villagers to plant trees which restores local ecosystems and economies.
