Do I need a concrete slab for a shed or a garage?
FOR SHEDS: No in most cases. The steel joist system has more than adequate strength to support your shed on almost any type of soil, gravel, or lawn. Only when your shed is to be located in an area that is below the grade of the rest of your yard shall a concrete pad be considered for extra height and drainage. If your intended use for the building requires a concrete floor due to the weight or type of materials to be stored in it, a concrete pad may be ordered through us.
FOR GARAGES: Yes in most cases. The point of a garage is more than just storage, but an area to work and park. A concrete pad is a good idea.
Are there any assembly costs?
All prices include installation. A delivery charge may apply to buildings built or delivered further than 30 miles from our location.
What about accessories?
A-SHED offers multiple accessories that can accommodate most customers specifications. (i.e. Multple types of doors, windows, vents, shelving etc.)
What kind of siding do you use?
Engineered to Perform - A-SHED storage buildings feature LP Smart Side siding. LP Smart Side is a high quality treated engineered wood panel designed to out perform traditional plywood siding. This panel is pretreated with smart guard process, which protects against fungal decay an wood destroying insects and is factory primed and ready to be painted.

We then wrap this with a product designed specifically for exterior trim. LP Smart Side Trim comes factory primed to resists moisture and delamination. Manufacturer's warranty 50 years.
We also have many other siding options such as vinyl, lap, stucco, brick, rock, etc...
What kind of roof will I get on my shed?
Our standard roof is Owens Corning 30 year architectural shingles. These are twice as thick and last longer than the 20 year 3-tab shingles used by others.
