Are all of your buildings available
for Rent-to-Own?
All of the standard buildings are available for rent-to-own. Special orders may
require a cash purchase. If the customer intends to alter the building with
construction or painting it will need to be a cash purchase.
How long will I have to wait to get my
building?
A building purchased from a dealer (in stock on the dealer's lot) will take 7-10
days to deliver. If the building purchased has to be manufactured it will be
14-21 days. Weather conditions and the demand of the season can alter delivery
times.
Does the building need to sit on
gravel or concrete?
The only requirement is a level location. Our buildings are designed to rest
directly on their skids. In order to level the building we use treated wood
blocks. If you would like to have your building on concrete blocks, we only
require that you provide the blocks.
How much space should be allowed to
deliver a building?
A vertical space of 14', measured from the ground to the top of the building
when it is on the trailer, is required. Be sure to take any tree branches and
utility wires into account. The driver will still need a minimum of 2' of space
to maneuver the truck. That is, a building 12' wide will require a 14 foot wide
space. Please take tight turns into account when considering a location.
What sizes are your buildings
available in?
We can build any size building between 8x12 and 12x32 as long as it is in
increments of 2'. Therefore, sizes that are not listed on your dealer's price
list can be built. Some hauling restrictions may apply on larger sizes.
Why is my 12' wide building only about
11'6" wall to wall?
We are limited by hauling regulations as to how wide a building we can deliver.
The current regulation is 12'. For this reason, 12- wide buildings are measured
from eave to eave. Our 8' and 10' wide buildings are measured from wall to wall.
What kinds of maintenance will be
required on my building?
You should enjoy many years of maintenance free storage. All of our treated
buildings are stained at no extra charge.
Do I need to have permits or other
paperwork?
You are responsible for contacting your local city and county agencies in regard
to zoning, permits, setbacks, and covenants. Also, it is recommended that you
contact your Home Owners Association (if applicable) to determine what
neighborhood rules and regulations may be apply.
What is the warranty on a building?
We guarantee our buildings to be free from defects in materials and workmanship
for a period of five years. Metal roofs and shingles have 30 years warranties.
Our pressure LP Smartside® siding has a lifetime manufacture warranty against
termites and fungal decay .
