Build Extra Storage Space

Historically, most homes have garages that have been built with little or no planned Garage Storage Space. Lack of storage space has forced many homeowners to find and pay for storage space in other locations.

Finding Extra Storage Space gives the homeowner a place to store items that won't safely fit, or are not safe to store in their garage storage space.

Whether you need Extra Storage Space for dangerous items, flammable materials, hazardous substances, or just need more storage space for sports gear, bikes, gardening tools or equipment, Building Extra Storage Buildings are a sensible outdoor storage solution.

Storage Buildings are known by many names. Everything from Backyard Storage Barns and Storage Sheds to Tool Sheds and Garden Sheds.

To keep it simple, we call all outdoor buildings used for storage of your stuff, Outdoor Storage Buildings.

Build Extra Storage Space - Outdoor Buildings

Two often overlooked details that can create a lot of problems are building/zoning codes and restrictive covenants.

Before you decide on any Storage Building, check with your local building department for their building and zoning codes. Every building department has different requirements. Some require a permit while others may not.

Also, Before you decide on any Storage Building, check the Title of your property for any restrictive Conditions, Covenants and Restrictions (CC&R's).

If there are any, you are best advised to first get approval from the governing authority or homeowners association before starting any construction.

Build Extra Storage Space - Preparation

Preparation and Placement are two of the most important steps for any construction project. Carefully select the placement of your Outdoor Storage Building and make sure you:

* Consider setback from property lines and other buildings

* Consider appearance and visibility

* Install drainage that ensures you all weather access

* Lay down cinder blocks, concrete piers, a concrete slab or at least crushed stone before you start your building.

* Make sure the supports underlying the floor are made of pressure-treated wood.
