What Does “Custom” Mean When Building a Shed?

When it comes to building a shed at Hometown Sheds you have a large variety of customization options. But what does that really mean when it comes to building a shed?

The Shed’s Exterior.

When choosing an exterior for your shed you can select between LP Smart siding which prevents rot, mildew and is resistant to wood boring insects, vinyl, or a steel exterior. All three are great choices, each with its own set of benefits. We are also happy wo work within your HOA’s guidelines to ensure that the exterior meets their standards. You’ll be able to choose from standard steel roofing or upgrade to shingles.

A Variety of Sizes.

From a small value line shed perfect for storing tools, all the way to a 12X36, the choice is yours. We recommend measuring the largest item that you need to store, like a lawn mower, then allowing room for future growth when deciding.

Windows & Doors.

Choose from no windows, a single window, or two or more depending on your needs. Consider how you’ll use your shed on a daily basis when selecting the doors: double doors with a ramp are perfect for pulling in yard equipment, a single swing door for everyday entry, or a roll up door makes it fast and convenient for loading and unloading.

Porches.

Kick back and enjoy the fresh air with three porch options. An end porch goes across the full width of the building, a wrap around porch wraps around the side, and a side porch is ideal for a smaller covered entry area.

Color Options for Your Shed.

The wooden sheds at Hometown are available with either exterior stain options or almost endless color options with painted siding (available at no extra charge). Metal sheds are available in a variety of select colors for both your exterior and trim, or ask us about vinyl siding choices.

Interior Shed Customization.

Depending on the use for your shed, we offer floor to ceiling shelving for extra storage, pegboard ideal for hanging tools, a workbench, protective flooring to park heavy equipment, and even an optional electrical package to light up the night and help with power tools.

Financing Options.

Your shed isn’t the only thing that can be customized, so can your payments. We offer several types of financing including rent to own; no credit check is required. Some of our options include only a small up-front payment or easy monthly payments over time.

The options and combinations really are endless with your new shed from Hometown Sheds. That’s because as the manufacturer of your new shed, we build it from the ground up paying attention to each detail. Shop online or stop by today to get started creating your custom storage building!
