Built on-site.
Built to last.

Custom sheds from Charlotte Shed Builders range from approximately $15,000 for a basic 8×10 gable to $40,000+ for a large finished studio or workshop. The main cost drivers are size, roof style, feature additions (lofts, extra doors, windows), and finish level (unfinished vs. insulated interior). We provide a detailed written estimate with professional drawings before any work begins — no surprises.

Our construction package always includes wall and roof framing, sheathing, weather-resistive barrier, siding, roofing material, doors and windows installed with flashing and trim, all construction-grade materials, hardware, crew labor, cleanup, professional 2D design drawings, and a 1-year workmanship warranty. Foundation, electrical, and HVAC work depend on project scope: smaller storage builds often roll skid/block foundation and basic finish into one package price, while larger or finished builds typically have you engage a separate licensed concrete contractor, electrician, and HVAC contractor — we provide builder-supplied estimates so you see the full project investment up front. Permit fees and HOA review fees are paid by the owner; we provide all required drawings and help navigate the process.

Our custom on-site sheds typically cost 10–30% more than a comparable prefab delivered to your property. But a custom build gives you exact-fit dimensions, matched exterior finishes, no delivery access constraints (no fence removal, no crane trucks), proper site-specific foundation, and construction-grade framing instead of factory-assembled panels. For homeowners who plan to keep their shed for 15+ years, custom on-site construction is the better investment.

We don't currently offer in-house financing. Payment terms are 30% deposit at contract signing, 30% at dry-in (framing, roof, sheathing, and WRB complete), 30% at interior finish (insulation and drywall complete on finished builds — or exterior closeout on unfinished storage builds), and 10% final upon punch-list sign-off. Many homeowners use home equity lines of credit (HELOC) or personal loans for shed projects.

Step 1: Free site visit and consultation — we see your property, discuss your needs, and take measurements. Step 2: We design your shed and deliver professional drawings with a detailed written estimate. Step 3: You approve the design and estimate, and we schedule your build. Step 4: We build your shed on-site — most builds take 6–14 build days (8–18 calendar days) depending on size. Step 5: Final walkthrough, cleanup, and you start using your shed.
