Do you need a shed?
One that isn’t junk?
Then you’ve clicked the right “shed for sale” ad/listing/post thing.
My name is Wren.
I’m an Arizona shed geek.
I built this one from scratch.
It is a 4x8 with custom paint. (32 sq. ft.)
If you need one with a gable roof, or a different size (anything between 4x8 up to 12x20), just shoot me a quick message and let’s chat.
Here’s a few more details about the one the photos:
- It has a 4-foot-wide door.
- It has a modern lean-to roof design.
- It has a 2/12 pitch and lifetime (30yr +) algae resistant architectural roofing shingles up top.
- It’s got 25 year rated maintenance free door trim that won’t rot, crack, split, or warp… unlike the pine board trim many other builders use that require frequent painting to keep it from absorbing water, swelling up, drying out, getting brittle, and eventually falling apart.
Oh, and…
- The base of this shed is built out of 30-year ground contact rated pressure treated lumber… plus we set it up so it’s elevated off the ground on solid concrete blocks. That way you get a little airflow under there for moisture management… and because you floor joists aren’t in direct contact with the ground, they should last even longer.
- It has screened vents on both sides. Screened to keep the bugs out. Vented to let the rising hot air escape in the summer months, and to give you a little airflow so you don’t have moisture buildup or mold problems.
- Plus, the heavy ¾” flooring is super strong. That means you can park heavy equipment on there and it won’t warp, buckle, or fall apart. Handy if you want to park a lawnmower or side by side in there. It makes for a quiet, stiff floor. Many other builders use thinner non-treated plywood (can’t get it wet), or OSB (you REALLY can’t get it wet, or it immediately starts falling apart).
Also…
- This shed has 50 year rated exterior panels that are impregnated with waxes and resins and treated with zinc borate. That means they’ll never absorb water, won’t swell/warp or rot, and the zinc borate makes them insect and termite resistant.
Why is that important?
Many other builders use T1-11 siding on their sheds. If you don’t paint it every 2-3 years it will start to absorb water, swell up, dry out, and become brittle.
Repeat that cycle enough times and the panels start to fall apart.
I’m sure you’ve seen this before… new-ish sheds that look like they’re rotting from the ground up
Or the ones they sell at the big box stores with fancy galvanized metal bases… where the galvanized coating runs thin and eventually the base starts to rust.
Anyways…
I’m not here to bash what other people build, just to tell you how our sheds are built and why you’d want one.
1: It will store your stuff and keep it dry (or give you a place to work on things).
2: It comes with a locking door handle and a key to keep your stuff secure.
3: It’s built using only high-quality materials.
4: Everything is designed to last.
The only problem?
Because it’s not built cheaply, it’s a bit more of an investment up front.
It’s cheaper than building a cheap shed, watching it fall apart, then getting it demo’d, and rebuilding another cheap shed every few years… but still.
Like the old saying goes, you get what you pay for.
Chances are you’ll only need one or maybe two sheds in a lifetime… so it makes sense to buy right the first time, right?
I’m sure you’ve got questions, so feel free to shoot me a message.
I’m friendly and Happy to help.
I look forward to chatting with you soon.
Thanks!
