So you need a storage shed to keep your outdoor items properly protected. You have shopped around to see what's available, but you just can't find one that suits your needs. Well, that's no problem. You can build one yourself ,even if you're not a carpenter. All that is required is ,for you to follow some quick and easy step by step plans, and you will have it built in no time.
Step One
Is to determine where you want to build it. You need to have a designated area planned out before you begin. What space you have available will determine the maximum size you can build it.
Step two
Once you know your exact size it's a good idea to rough sketch what you want. There are many home improvement stores that you can take your sketch to. They will draft up your storage shed plans for you, according to the specs you provide them with. They will also supply you with a list of materials that you will require. So now you have your plans. In addition they will provide you with a guide on how to perform each step.
Step Three
Purchase the materials you will need as outlined in your plan. it's a good idea to have everything at hand so you don't have to keep running out for supplies once you start construction.
Step Four
Now you are ready to start. Level your ground and prepare to lay the foundation. You would have already decided whether you are going to have a wood plank floor or concrete slab type.
Step Five
Next comes the side walls. Put your materials aside that you are going to use for this. It is better to construct the walls on the ground then lift them into position once they are together. Just follow your guide for the how to instructions.
Step Six
Now its time to start the roof. You will need to build your trusses. So construct one and then use it as a template for the rest. Once again follow your guide on how to build the trusses.
Step Seven
Your storage shed should now be taking on some shape. Its time to build the end walls. How you do this will depend on what you have chosen in your plans. Be sure to stay with your original plans.
Step Eight
Now you are getting down to the final steps. The trim is just as important as the rest of your structure. Its what gives it that finished look so don't scrimp here.
Step Nine
Your last two steps are applying the shingles for the roof then treating the wood. The wood must have some type of protective coating on it to protect it from the elements and rotting. This can be varnish, stains or paints whatever is your preference.
Step Ten
You're done! All that's left is to sit back and admire your completed storage shed. If you hadn't built it yourself you would think it was a professional store bought model.
