FAQs

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.

We have some of the latest and greatest tools available when it comes to shed deliveries. Rather than taking a heavy truck and trailer into your backyard we have invested in “Mules” that can easily move your shed into place. They greatly reduce the possibility of ruts in your lawn and allows us to install the shed just where you need it. Check out the video of a typical delivery here.

Our driver and set up team will collect payment when your project is complete. Most of the delivery trucks have credit card processors on board and if you plan to pay cash or check the driver will pick that up upon completing your building.

Anchoring the shed is not necessary unless specified by your township. However, we can install an anchor kit for you for an additional fee. Or you can purchase the kit and install it yourself.

The Mule is a very agile machine and works well on sharp corners. If there are questions, please don’t hesitate to send us a picture or take a short video of the route of travel. It’s always better to answer those questions before we deliver your building!

No, we do not have the necessary equipment to lift a building over a house or fence. If you do not have adequate room to get a fully assembled building using our Mule, we would need to build on site.

If you do not have adequate access to get a fully assembled building into your backyard we are able to build on site. However, this can add a significant amount to the cost of your shed. We always recommend checking to see if it is possible to take down a section of the fence temporarily.

The answer can vary depending on the building type and overhangs. But in general, we need a space 2’ wider than the gable end of the shed. For example: We would need a 12’ wide opening to get a 10×16 shed through.

If we need to move the shed across terrain that is more than a 15 degree angle, we will ask you to send us a few pictures or a video of the route of travel. With the pictures and video, we can determine if the shed can be moved in with the Mule.

The delivery Mule has wide tires and there are an additional 4 tires on the dolly wheels that assist the Mule in moving the shed. With the combination of the 6 tires, the pounds per square inch is similar to the weight of a riding lawn mower. If your riding lawn mower is able to cross over the area without doing damage then the delivery mule should be able to do the same.

Our garages come standard without an opener, but they are definitely an option. Make sure to ask your sales rep to include one in your estimate and we will be happy to install it for you.

Standard garage doors are 9×7. We will install the standard garage door if the wall has the width and height for the 9×7 garage doors. On the 10′ wide garages, we install an 8′ wide garage door. On the Premier garages the garage door height is 6′ 6″.

Custom size garage doors (smaller, wider, and taller) are available. In most cases, to change to a larger door you will need to upgrade to higher walls and possibly taller beams over the wider garage doors.

Yes, modular means delivered in more than one piece. Our modular garages come in two halves which our crew will put together once on site. Our two story modular sheds also come in two halves- a top and a bottom which our crew puts together on site. The assembly of the two halves is included in the cost of the building.

Yes, assembly is included in the price. All the two car garages are brought out in pre-fabricated pieces, assembled on site and attached to the concrete floor/foundation. The exception is our Modular Double Wide Garage which comes with a wooden floor and is delivered in two halves.

Our single-car garages are available in various colors for both the siding and the trim. These colors include red, blue, brown, black, orange, green, tan, gray, and more. Explore our color options page to find the ideal color combination for your garage.

There is a vast selection of color options for your garage roof. You can choose between various colors of asphalt shingles, corrugated metal roofing, and standing seam metal roofing. Check out our color options page to see all the colors you can choose from.

The cost of a one-car garage will depend on the size, style, and features you choose to add. A 12×20 one-car garage can range from $6,370 to $14,653 or more if you add a second story. For a larger-sized one-car garage, like a 16×20, prices can vary from $13,880 to $23,646 or more if you add a second story.

Absolutely! Only if there is not enough space in the wall to fit the windows and/or doors will we need to recommend otherwise.

Yes, we have a limited number of interior pictures in the photo galleries. If you can’t find what you are looking then please contact our office. One of our sales reps will be happy to assist you!

We offer same day shed foundation installation if you would prefer your shed site to be professionally prepped rather than doing it yourself.  You can find more information on this page: https://shedsunlimited.net/content/how-to-prepare-your-gravel-shed-pad/ or you can print this pdf sheet: https://shedsunlimited.net/shed-garage-info/shedpadsheet.pdf. Follow the directions yourself or take advantage of our shed pad services.

Yes! We will just need to know the brand, style, and color.

Yes, we can! Just let us know what type of siding you are looking for and we can put together a custom quote.

Our standard shed floor comes with pressure treated runners (4×4’s) on the underside and boxing (the frame around the floor joists). This means that everything exposed to the elements is pressure treated. We do not believe that it is necessary, but if you prefer the floor joists and the floor plywood to be treated we offer that as an option.

Yes, we can paint both wooden and fiberglass doors. However, if you have requested steel doors, they are only available in white.

Yes, steel doors are available upon request.

All doors other than our wooden doors are made of fiberglass unless otherwise stated. We have found that the fiberglass doors hold up better over time and are less susceptible to scratches and dents. If you prefer steel doors, they are available upon request.

All portable garages have heavier floors with the floor joists 12″ on-center which is enough to support your motorcycle or a small car. If you prefer a more heavy duty floor it can be upgraded to 8″ on-center to give you a 33% stronger floor.

All of our buildings are built with the same high quality materials. The difference is appearance and detail. If you look at the Standard buildings you’ll see narrower overhangs, a basic trim package, and a low roof pitch.The Classic buildings have nicer trim along with a steeper roof and wider overhangs. Then the Premier buildings feature a sharper design with a steepest roof pitch possible, additional windows, and trim around the windows.

There are two easily overlooked things that we like to recommend.

• A ramp is a wise idea if you plan on rolling anything into your shed like a lawn mower.
• We also recommend venting. We offer 3 different styles: Standard Gable Vents, Classic Gable Vents, and a Ridge Vent.

You can find out more about these options as well as others we have to offer of our options page here.

If you have custom ideas in mind, make sure you share it with our sales staff. Most likely we can supply you with exactly what you have in mind!

Your two car garage includes custom shop drawings. Our other buildings do not come standard with drawings, but you can find many pictures of similar buildings in our photo galleries. Or you can view many buildings in our 3D Shed Builder.

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.

At this time we are not able to do interior finish work. However, you can certainly hire a contractor or finish the interior yourself once the building is in place.

We offer a large range of standard sizes on all of our buildings and can even do custom sizes.
Choosing a building size can be a challenge. To get an idea of how much space you need park your car or items you plan to store on your driveway or lawn and space them in a way that you think would work best in your building. Then measure the space. If you’re still unsure about what size you need, we always recommend going larger. We’ve never had anyone say they got too big of a building!

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.

Of course! We can’t imagine selling a shed or garage without a roof! All of our buildings are sold complete with a roof. Architectural shingles are our standard roofing, but we can use metal roofing or a custom roofing of your choice as an option.

Our sheds, single car garages, and modular designs come standard with a wooden floor. If you purchase a two car garage or larger garage (considered a permanent structure) a concrete pad or foundation is required and will act as the floor of the building.

Our stock siding options include: LP Smart panel siding, a 4” dutch lap vinyl siding (standard on many houses), and the LP Smart Clapboard with 5″ exposure.
If you are looking for a specific siding we are happy to provide you with a custom quote as well!

Yes we do! For a small fee we can get a custom paint match of whatever color you desire. All we will need is a color chip.

Yes. Just let us know what you are looking for and we can put together a quote for you!

We can match almost any house siding. We’ll need to know the manufacturer, brand, and the size of the siding, then we’ll research and provide a quote to match your siding.

LP Smart Siding has the same appearance of T-111 and DuraTemp with vertical grooves 8” on-center. But how it’s made is more like OSB and every wood layer gets a antifungal treatment before they are pressed and glued together. This treatment helps prevent against rot and decay.

DuraTemp is a standard Douglas Fir plywood panel with a composite veneer on the face and vertical grooves 8” on-center much like T-111. It has been a very common shed and garage siding for a number of years.

Yes, our standard windows do open and have screens. Our slider windows are single hung and the bottom half slides up and down.
Transom, octagon shaped, or other specialty windows do not open and are meant for aesthetics and allowing light to enter the building.

Yes! We can add as many windows and doors as you want. We can also take them out if you prefer.

Standard windows sizes are: 18×27 and 24×36. Transom windows are: 10×18, 10×23, 10×29, and 10×35.
We have many custom sizes as well, just let us know what you have in mind.

Our warranty only applies to buildings which the Sheds Unlimited team assembles. We always want satisfied customers, so be sure to contact us if you have any questions or trouble.

DIY shed kits are the same cost as a fully assembled shed. It takes the same amount of time and materials for us to prepare/package a kit as it does for us to fully assemble the same shed.

Each kit is carefully put together with quality building materials and will outlast almost any metal or plastic shed. Our kit manufacturing process allows us to test the fit of every single kit before it’s shipped. This quality control standard ensures that there are no surprises when you receive your shed kit. As a small, family-owned company, we take immense pride in every shed and shed kit we produce!

While we do offer two-story sheds and garages, we do not offer them as DIY kits. These buildings require a high degree of construction experience to assemble and would be difficult to build safely in without specialized tools and equipment. Our two-story buildings can be delivered in a modular design or built on-site by one of our crews.

Each of our shed kits comes with detailed print and video instructions. However, if you have any questions or problems while assembling your building, you can always contact our office. One of our team will be happy to assist you!

We recommend a minimum of 2 people to assemble our shed kits, particularly when handling heavy components such as walls and floors. For larger buildings, it can be nice to have as many as 3-4 people.

Our shed kits include all main building components. You will supply the fasteners, sealants (caulk), and tools required for assembly.

Each kit includes a detailed list of the exact tools and materials needed. In most cases, the list will be similar to this:

Assembling a shed kit should take one to three days depending on the size of the building and your construction expertise.

To finalize an order you will need to call in and speak with one of our sales reps. At that point we will go over all of the building details with you including colors and the placement of the doors and windows.

Your deposit is a confirmation of your order. We request that you sign your sales order and return a copy to Sheds Unlimited for our records at the time of your deposit.

In the case that it is necessary for you to cancel your order, we can refund your deposit minus a 5% fee for office costs, if we have not constructed the building or ordered materials. In the case that we have already begun manufacturing, additional costs will be incurred.

Upon placing the order for sheds or single car garages, we ask for a 30% deposit if the cost of the building is under $8,000.00 and 50% if the order is over $8,000.00. In addition, any building being delivered to New York City or Long Island, NY, requires a 50% deposit. The balance is due on delivery.
For two and three car garages, payments are as follows: 30% when the order is placed, 30% prior to beginning construction in our shop, then the final 40% when the building is assembled.
We accept cash, check, debit cards, and most credit cards.
All checks should be sent to:

Our lead time varies depending on the time of year and order volume. January, February, and March are typically our least busy months and when our lead time will usually be around the 2-4 week mark. As we get into the summer and fall months our lead time can stretch out to 10 weeks. Call us to get more exact lead times – we do our best to get you your building as soon as possible!
PS. Often we have a supply of in-stock and discounted buildings that are ready for an earlier shipment.

Once you have used our website to decide on a style, size, and siding you can call us or submit an estimate request online. One of our sales staff will answer any additional questions that you might have and walk you through the order process. Our sales staff will make sure that the windows and doors are positioned at the right location to best meet your needs. They will also ask you for your color choices for the siding, trim, roofing, etc. Once you are ready to place the order we will need your deposit to finalize the order.

The permit cost you are seeing is a permit for transporting an oversize load in the state. Every state has different fees and requirements for hauling.

Drawings for two car garages (and larger) are included in the purchase price. However, we do ask for a deposit of $500 to supply you with the drawings. The $500 will be credited back to when you purchase that garage. Here are some sample drawings.

Sheds and Single Car Garages work a little bit differently. In most cases your township will be satisfied with our standard spec sheet and a catalog or pictures of a similar building. If you do need drawings specific to your shed the $500 deposit is the same. You will be credited back $250 when you purchase the shed. We always recommend double checking with your township to see what they require.

We do not recommend using concrete blocks under your building. Spacing and leveling blocks can be extremely difficult and they do not provide even support. Over time an unlevel pad can cause the building to settle which can cause doors and windows to bind.

Shed pad costs can vary between different contractors. You can anticipate between $9.00 to $13.00 per square ft for the smaller shed pads, however, the cost could drop to around $5.00 per square ft for the larger pads. Keep in mind that if you have a lot of slope, the price will change to reflect the cost for grading to level the site.

For buildings with a wooden floor we recommend installing a gravel pad. For buildings without a wooden floor a concrete pad is required. You can find more information about what we recommend here.

As the customer, you are responsible for site preparation. If you prefer to prep the site yourself, make sure you follow our recommendations and guidelines.

• Gravel Pad Preparation
• Concrete Foundation Preparation

If you prefer to have your site prepared professionally, we offer same-day shed foundation site preparations. We will take care of all the measuring, detailing, and labour in exact accordance to our quality site preparation standards.

We are committed to meeting your needs and will do everything we can to answer any questions you have. From our years of experience we have become very good at communicating through emails, pictures, and phone conversations. If you feel you need to speak with someone on site then we can provide that for you for a fee.

We deliver sheds and single-car garages up to 300 miles and two-car+ garages up to 600 miles from our location in Morgantown, PA. Our service area covers most of the Mid-Atlantic United States, including all or parts of the following states: CT, DE, MA, MD, NJ, NY, PA, RI, VA, and WV. On occasion, we deliver to ME, NC, NH, OH, SC, and VT. For a specific delivery/installation quote, request a free estimate or submit a design from our 3D shed builder.

We do not offer rent-to-own because we do not believe it is in the best interest of our customers. If you put the purchase on your credit card and make payments that way, you’ll often pay less than you would by using a rent-to-own option! Buying a shed via rent-to-own will typically cost you an extra 25% to 100%+ (more in this article). While renting a storage shed may seem to be a good option (based on the low monthly payments), we highly encourage you to consider what the shed will cost you in the long run.

All of our prices can be found on our website. However, if you would rather speak to someone in person, feel free to give us a call! Or you can fill out our online estimate request form here.

Yes, we offer several types of shed and garage financing. Call us at 717-442-3281 to see if one of them is right for you!

Our prices are factory direct prices and we do our best to keep them as low as possible.

Most of the time we have stock buildings at a discounted price because they are already built and not customizable, so make sure you check out our deals page to see what we have in stock.

Also, January and February are our slow months and Sheds Unlimited has given discounts during the off season in the past. You can check our website from time to time to see if there are any discounts available, or sign up with your email address at the top of the page.

Our shop is set up and equipped so that our team can build each building in the most efficient way possible. While our onsite crews are experienced and sent with all the appropriate equipment, it will still take them more time to assemble the building then it would in the conditions of our shop. Traveling time is also a factor in the build on site charge as well.

Our shipping cost is a mileage charged based off of the size and style of the building plus any shipping permits necessary. To get an estimated delivery cost, you can contact our office via phone or email. You can also submit an estimate request here.

Each of our shed and garage lines has its own specifications based on construction style, design, etc. To find details about a specific building, start at one of our top-level pages:
