Backyard Sheds: Three Great Reasons to Build it Yourself

Backyard sheds are a way of life these days

Backyard sheds are a way of life these days. Everywhere you turn, there's a shed in every backyard. And the uses for these sheds can be as varied as there are styles.

If you're thinking about getting a backyard shed, let me challenge you to think about building your own. Why? Well, first of all, the satisfaction of building a structure with your own hands and seeing the final result is extremely fulfilling. You'll never get that by getting a shed from the local hardware supply store. If you have a little skill at woodworking, you'll do fine building your own shed. There are many resources available to help you learn all of the ins and outs of building and of using the proper tools and techniques.

Secondly, you can save a lot of money by building your own shed. By choosing your lumber, foundation type, and roofing specific to your needs, you can save money while maximizing the usefulness of your shed. For example, a lot of kits or contractor-built sheds contain mostly construction grade lumber. That's great for all building components that will be shielded from moisture. It's not good for surfaces that will be exposed to moisture. Those surfaces really need pressure treated lumber. If you're building your own backyard shed, then you can make those choices depending on your needs.

Thirdly, if you're building your own shed, you can choose a shed plan from an almost limitless number of choices. You can choose a style of shed that compliments your existing home as well as your intended use. For example, if your home has wooden shingles, then you can use wooden shingles on your shed. If you are wanting to use your shed as a potting shed, you can choose a plan that has lots of windows so that plenty of natural light is available to grow your seedlings.
