Since 1989, over 14,000 sheds built in the San Francisco Bay Area
Real stories and pictures from our customers who've made life easier and more fun with a Shed Shop shed.
I have a small craft business making bells from re‐cycled air cylinders such as scuba tanks and fire extinguishers. After cutting them in various lengths I install clappers and exotic hangers.
My shop display room was getting overcrowded and I was thinking of converting one of the rooms in my house, but then I would lose living space. My friend Sally had a Shed Shop shed at her place; this looked perfect for my bells and she gave me the number. The Shed Shop was the answer, plus I didn't have to build it. After creating my bells, I hang them in my new shed to dry until I need them for my showroom. The shed is more spacious than I had thought; I can actually store about 100 bells.
My wife is a quilter and she was sharing a 10x10 room in our house for quilting, office, and a computer room. A room addition was too expensive and "TuffShed" didn't have a quality building of the size we were looking for.
My wife's 12x20 "Studio" from The Shed Shop is insulated, climate controlled, and completely finished on the inside. She has room for two workstations, a design wall, and lots of material storage. It has enough overall space to do king size quilts. The only problem is I don't see her for hours when she retreats to her studio, which she calls her "heavenly space".
I have one daughter and two sheds. My daughter knows I love her. She also knows I love my sheds. I had a leaky, rat infested garage that I replaced with two, 10x12 foot sheds from The Shed Shop. One shed is my "man" shed for working on house and garden products. The other is finished inside with track lighting, skylight, phone, and TV. It's great for reading and relaxing.
My daughter has left for college but she still calls to ask how I am doing, and more importantly, if I still love my sheds. The answer is always yes.
I collect "Dept. 56" villages, and every December I had to remove my dining room furniture to make room for my display. It take a lot of time to set up so I'm in no hurry to put it away. However we really need the dining room so away it must go.
I decided I wanted a place to permanently set up my villages. We looked at a "TuffShed" but we thought the Shed Shop product was better constructed.
At the end of June a big truck shows up in my driveway. From 7AM till almost 6, two Shed Shop employees construct my shed. I am still impressed with the quality when I compare it to my dad's (TuffShed).
This "shed" is my place to be. It is furnished with an armchair, skull stuff, my toolbox, workbench, futon, the ubiquitous beer fridge, stereo, and a really cool dartboard. My "man's shed" is the best place on earth.
"I loved the look of the sheds. They looked like little houses –
which I thought was perfect for what I wanted for my husband's bike."
Maria G., San Jose
"All the school stuff was taking over the home and garage. We were
going to do an addition but it was going to cost too much money."
Sarah M., San Ramon
"The "shed" frees up space in our garage and the "office" has worked
out well for computing and scrapbooking."
Beth W., Pleasant Hill
"I wasted valuable time at Home Depot and on the phone with Tuff
Shed. Fortunately I was referred to The Shed Shop."
Virginia S., Lafayette
"My wife Bernice's first love is art which she put aside 27 years
ago. Now that she's retiring, she can devote more time to her art."
Joe H., Oakland, CA
"Once we saw how great the shed looked in our shabby "back 40", we
embarked on a major landscaping project."
Lynda K., Los Altos
"It was a place we could have all to ourselves with no marauding
parents or raccoons climbing into our sleeping bags due to the shed's
sturdy walls."
Haley L., Orinda
"First it served us as valuable storage space during a remodel. Now I
have use of it for a lifetime for an art studio to do my paintings."
Mike P., San Jose
"We kept looking for a cheaper shed but we could not find any we
liked. Our Shed Shop shed is the same design as our home."
John L., Concord
