Shed

I had bought a shed at lowes about 3 months ago, but with everything going on with my back and my dad, I never had time to put it up. The directions say that it should take 90 minutes to put up. Dont believe everything you read. Only if somone has built a few of these sheds b4 should it only take 90 minutes. It took us 30 minnutes to take everythig out of the box.

It took myself and 2 friends about 6 to 8 hours to put it up over 2 days. The walls and floor werent as bad as putting up the roof.

The shed is vinyl, and it is 8X12.5. I paid around $1100 for it, and I wish it came installed. If you ever have to put up a shed, pay someone to do it. What a PITA.

The roof was a nightmare. We did the whole roof right and there is still one section that doesnt line up right ugh...

I cant wait to put stuff into it. I hate not having a basement. We can finally unpack the storage room and make it into a guest bedroom....

Its a nice shed - Built really well. It has two huge doors, 2 windows with plexi glass, and 5 skylights on top. It comes with a floor, and it comes with shelves for the inside.

I will post pics soon

Re: Shed

My DH and I put up our shed and the hardest thing about it was the roof. We really needed another guy to help because the roof panels were a little too heavy for me.
