A List of Reasons You Haven't Thought Of For a Storage Shed

After a particularly snowy winter in parts of the northeast, adding out buildings to your property to avoid snow issues next winter may be on your summer agenda. Of course, that means finding the buildings that meet your needs and enhance your property value.

An Amish shed may be exactly what you are looking for. Maybe you have young children that you'd like to give a small bus stop shelter so that when the weather is rainy or cold, but school is still in session, your children are protected from the elements while they wait for the school bus.

Maybe you need a pool house with separate changing areas for male and female guests. Or, maybe you'd like a sun room that can convert into a guest room for when your other-in-law is in town.

Whatever your extra space needs, choosing an Amish shed means quality construction and a three-year warranty. More than that, it means you can customize the design of your new out building to enhance the value of your property and comply with home owners associations or the local township.

Many people hear the word shed and immediately think of a thin steel building with a wooden floor, but out buildings can be so much more! Whatever you need extra space for, from storing your tools to having a place to work on crafts, an out building lets you add more room without the hassle of remodeling or construction on your house.

Garden Sheds: She-Shed or Man Cave?

Almost every parent out there knows that sometimes the house can be a little too small to provide mom and dad with the getaway they need. Whether mom needs a "She-Shed" for her hobbies or dad needs a "man cave" to read or watch a ballgame, an Amish-built shed can be the perfect answer.

As the trend for small spaces is on the rise, using a storage shed as a getaway is becoming more an more popular.  Since additions can be costly, many people have chosen to forgo the traditional craft room or den, we have found that our "man caves" as they are called on the website, are becoming more an more of a hit. But these "man caves" aren't just for men. We have women use them for craft rooms, painting studios, or potting sheds, as well. 

A garden shed (turned hobby shed) is a quick and customizable solution if you're looking for a little extra space out back. No longer is the shed just an outbuilding intended for tool storage or housing the car. When you look at a custom-built shed, you can opt to create an unexpected getaway for you and a guest or two.

These wood frame structures are built to your specifications and then delivered to your prepared building site, ready to handle whatever your family needs. Your imagination is the limit to what you can do with one of our prefab sheds. These buildings can be designed to have electricity and plumbing added, making them more of a little cabin in the backyard.

Of course, you can still use your garden shed as a potting shed to start flowers and vegetables for the garden. You can even use it as shelter for your backyard chickens or your dog. But, really, why not use it for a little space of your own.

Storage Sheds: Plan for Storing Your Summer Fun

In early summer many people are not thinking about where they will put the lawn furniture, mower and grill when the summer is over, but it is the perfect time to plan ahead for the fall.

A shed, built on site or brought to you complete, offers a unique way to comply with whatever requirements your community or home owners' association has for out buildings. These custom-built storage sheds can be tailored to meet your specific lot requirements and your storage needs.

For many people,  keeping the lawn furniture and basic tools dry and accessible is the most basic requirement of their storage shed. But those with an eye to increasing the value of their property or keeping the neighbors happy also want something that looks good. Functional is nice. Functional and aesthetically pleasing is better.

With a custom-built storage shed, home owners can tailor the building to their design tastes and their needs. Maybe you need easy access to the lawn mower and snow blower, with overhead storage for your children's bikes, sleds and scooters. Maybe you'd prefer a shed that can double as a potting shed for spring vegetables. With a custom design, your shed can be created specifically with your family in mind.

Another advantage of these Amish-built sheds is that they are made of wood, not pre-fabricated metal sure to rust its first winter.  Your shed can be constructed on site if you have an off the beaten path spot intend for it or it can be delivered completed and ready to go.
