Planning considerations
What we think through before the build starts.
Use case first
A bunkie, a workshop, and a storage shed are not built the same. We start by understanding how the space will be used so the layout, openings, and finishes match the real workflow.
Foundation and access
Site grade, drainage, and access dictate how we set the base. We assess what makes sense — pad, piers, blocks, or proper footings — based on the structure and ground conditions.
Code and permits
Many small structures cross size thresholds that require permits. We plan with that in mind and build to a standard that holds up beyond the inspection.
Long-term durability
Roof slope, flashing, fastener selection, and ventilation matter more on small buildings than people expect. We don't skip those details.

Common questions
Frequently asked
We focus on accessory structures up to small garage size. Anything larger or that crosses into custom-home territory is referred or quoted on a case-by-case basis.
It depends on size, height, and setback. Sheds above certain footprints typically require permits. We help confirm requirements before the build starts.
Yes — we coordinate rough-in and work with licensed electricians for the final hookup so you have a properly inspected installation.
Absolutely. Insulation, vapour control, drywall or panel, lighting, and shelving can be built in. We plan it during framing so it integrates cleanly.
