Sheds With Porches
Sheds with Porches: The Perfect Backyard Upgrade
A garden shed is a versatile space to nurture your passion for gardening. Keep your tools, pots, and supplies neatly organized while creating a functional workspace for planting, potting, and pruning. A well-designed garden shed keeps everything you need within reach, whether planting seeds and nurturing new growth in the spring and summer, or harvesting crops and protecting perennials during the fall and winter. With features like built-in shelving, windows for natural light, and ample room for your gardening essentials, a garden shed enhances both efficiency and enjoyment. Some gardeners even add a porch or workbench for extra convenience. See how Sheds Unlimited customers are transforming their backyards with beautiful, garden-friendly sheds.

FAQs About Sheds with Porches
Can I customize my shed?
Of course! We offer a selection of unique customization options to meet all your needs. You can add extra windows for natural light, shelves for organizing, doors or ramps for easier access, and even electrical wiring for lighting or power tools. Customization can also extend to the exterior, including choosing the style of the roof, siding materials, and paint colors. Whether you need a simple storage shed or a fully functional workspace, you can tailor it to your specifications.
What materials are best for a shed?
The best materials for a shed depend on your budget and maintenance preferences. Wood provides a traditional, rustic look and can be customized, but it requires regular maintenance to prevent weathering and rot. Metal sheds are low-maintenance, highly durable, and offer great protection from the elements, but they can lack the aesthetic appeal of wood. Vinyl sheds are also an option, offering low maintenance and weather resistance, but at a higher initial cost. Choose the material that suits your needs, budget, and the local climate.
Do I have to put it together myself? Will Sheds Unlimited put it together in my backyard?
In most cases, our buildings are delivered fully assembled.
If a building cannot be delivered fully assembled, we can build on-site for an additional charge. This option is typically used only in situations where site access is limited or the building is too large to be transported fully assembled.
If you prefer to assemble the building yourself, some of our sheds are available as shed kits.
Can I match the shingles I have on my house?
Yes! We will just need to know the brand, style, and color.
Can I Add A Porch To My Shed?
At Sheds Unlimited, we have many customization options for your shed! Contact us so we can discuss what you have in mind for your specific shed project.
Do I need a permit for my shed or garage?
Every town has different regulations about adding an accessory structure. Contact your town or township to learn what the regulations are in your area. You will be responsible for obtaining any required permits and the fees associated with them.
If you are purchasing a portable structure (one with a wooden floor), make sure the town understands the building is not a permanent structure. In most of cases, property taxes will not be affected if the building is not permanent and the pad is permeable.*
At Sheds Unlimited, we handle the entire permitting process for a fee of $1,300. Our services encompass managing and facilitating all necessary permits required for your project. However, please note that our permitting services are exclusively available in the following states: Delaware (DE), Pennsylvania (PA), Massachusetts (MA), Connecticut (CT), Maryland (MD), Rhode Island (RI), Virginia (VA), New Jersey (NJ)
How many days will it take to build the shed or garage on my property?
That depends on the type of building as well as the added options. In most cases, we can assemble a shed in 6-12 hrs. The standard 2 car garages will be assembled within 1 day, but the 2 story and 3 or 4 car garages can take up to 3 days to assemble.
Can I live in the shed?
Like your house, a shed is framed with wood and then a structural panel is added on the outside of the framing. To make the shed livable as a Tiny House, Man cave, or She Shed you will need a few modifications: upgrade to the insulated windows and doors, add insulation, and install electric (and plumbing if desired).
Keep in mind that if the shed will be used for a permanent living space, your town may have requirements and restrictions on how the structure is designed or finished. Living in a structure brings it under the international building code and that does require more approvals.

Our Sheds Unlimited experience began on their informative website. We used their on-line design tool to create our shed, and the project flowed smoothly from design to delivery. Our site is very steep, and I truly doubted they would be able to deliver our 12’ X 14’ shed. They committed to delivery after reviewing pictures of our narrow street and steep hillside yard. Nate is a master equipment operator. He had our shed sitting perfectly level on our pad about 30 minutes after arrival. I was amazed by what he could with their specialized equipment. Fantastic work Sheds Unlimited!!

What can I say about Sheds Unlimited that hasn’t been said? The process to design what I wanted could not have been easier, the delivery was spot on time and the installation crew (Gideon, Joshua and Leroy) was awesome! I could not say enough good things about Sheds Unlimited, I highly recommend them!

I started this process of building a garage 2-3 years ago. I called local builders. Two of them never returned my calls, and one guy chewed me out for finding his number on the web and calling him without being referred by someone. I’m not kidding, this is how the building contractor experience is right now in New England. My web searches always turned up Sheds Unlimited and I saw that they had stories from folks in New England who had used them to build garages even though they are in Pennsylvania. I decided to go through the quote process. There was a similar shed & garage company closer to my home in New England so I got quotes from both of them for similar garages. The New England company quoted me a number that was 2 1/2 times higher than Sheds Unlimited quote. I decided to go with Sheds Unlimited. I worked with Sergey in sales over many emails on exactly what I wanted. There was never a moment when he seemed bothered or impatient by my questions and my changes. Everything was possible and everything had a clear dollar amount, the sale never felt rushed. I finally decided on a design and paid the deposit. The local permit process went smoothly with the plans I purchased from Sheds Unlimited. The process of getting a foundation and pad from a local contractor was probably the most difficult part of the process. Contractors that do concrete work, are used to working with builders, not private homeowners. But I found a guy and gave him the plan and I eventually got a nice pad and foundation. I told Michael from Sheds Unlimited the pad was ready and I expected to wait 10+ weeks since it was now summertime. I got the call only 5 weeks later from Gideon the project manager that they were ready. On the scheduled day Nathan and his crew of 3 young, hard working Amish carpenters arrived and discovered that my driveway was the worst-case scenario. They could not get their very long and heavy trailer up our driveway due to the tightness of the turn and narrowness of the driveway. So they had to unload everything from the trailer at the road to my build site which is about 900 feet from the public road. They dealt with local vehicle traffic, and unhelpful local police. The young crew had to run back and forth the 900 feet to walk alongside the forklift to make sure the preconstructed structural members did not swing into trees. Not once did they show any frustration or anger. Nathan was still positive and smiling when I talked with him about it later. So after all this arrival difficulty, when they finally starting constructing the garage, it went up incredibly fast. Every worker knew their part. There was no question about what they should be doing. They practically got the whole 2-story 2 car garage up in one day even after the delay from the driveway issues. They only stopped for the day when torrential rain finally started. They showed up at 5:30 AM the next day and finished the job. I can’t say enough great things about what I witnessed with this construction crew. Like I said, I have never seen anything like them in 26 years of hiring various contractors for home projects.

Our experience with ShedsUnlimited was the best experience we have ever had with a construction contractor. From the initial estimate through the final product, they were great to work with and went above and beyond on several things. When our local county had questions on the design for permitting, ShedsUnlimited worked directly with them, answering all their questions and moving the project forward. When the county decided (after the fact) that one window needed safety film added, ShedsUnlimited took care of that as well at no cost to us. The overall process went exactly as the website describes, and our 54×24 building was exactly as promised, with the efficient, friendly team completing the assembly in just 2 days! The materials and construction quality were excellent. A large, well-constructed building for significantly less money than a local contractor would charge! I highly recommend ShedsUnlimited for any size building project.
