Buying a shed is a big investment, and you want to make sure that it is a lasting one. In this post, we will talk about the different products, services, and other offers we bring to the table. We strive for long-lasting products that will shine in your yard to have the best-fit sheds for your needs.
Not sure how to go about researching, selecting, or purchasing a storage building? Which is the best one for you and your needs? Don't worry; we can help!
Our free Ultimate Storage Building Buying Guide will walk you through the entire buying process and will lead you through all the steps necessary to prepare for the arrival of your building. With this guide, you will know what to expect during each phase of the buying process. How to find and configure your storage building along with the different aspects we offer.
Once you have decided to start looking for a storage building, there are two ways to go about looking with us, you can,
1. Find Your Storage Building. If you have an idea of how you are going to use your storage building, browse our package options.
2. Design Your Own. If you like to make all the decisions, then create your building from scratch and choose from our wide variety of options. Learn about the styles and features that we have to choose from.
Custom building styles most often refer to the architectural design of the roof. For instance, our Ranch style storage buildings are A-framed and our High Barn style and Low Barn styles have two slopes on each side of the ridge creating a steeper slope. Other roof styles exist—but don't get too hung up on this particular detail. Your most important decisions are choosing the size, siding type, and roof material.
Features are standard items that come with the building. For instance, every building comes with at least one set of double doors, one window, flooring, and roofing. The question to ask is: which features are non-negotiable and which come with upgrade options? At Dakota we have many high-quality standard features—here are a few.
Ask yourself: "Which standard features are good for the purpose of my storage buildings, and which should I upgrade?"
Storage buildings should be built to last year after year, and we put a lot of care into the building process. Floor joists, insulation, siding, roofing, doors, and every other aspect of our storage buildings are put together with the best products and expert construction. Read more about how our buildings are constructed here to help with your process of buying a storage building.
After you've settled on features and upgrades, it's time to think about add-ons—items that don't come with your building but could be added to improve the beauty, convenience, or utility. We offer several add-on options, but we listed a few popular ones here.
As we shift away from what we have to offer from styles and materials, let's focus on how our installation process works once purchased.
Is there enough room from the road to your backyard for a full-sized shed to be delivered? Is there enough space on your property for a garage to be brought in and placed? If not, you'll want to purchase from companies that offer a build-on-site option.
All of our storage buildings can be built on-site or delivered to your property. When you choose an on-site building, we prefabricate the building in our factory, transport the sections to your property, and complete the project on-site. When you choose delivery, we partner with Dakota Shed Haulers to provide you with a safe and efficient shed delivery experience.
From the sales call to delivery, we make an effort to go above and beyond for our customers. Some customers have a lot of questions that need to be answered and others know exactly what they are looking for, and either way, we are here to make the buying experience an enjoyable one. We genuinely enjoy getting to work with our customers, and we hope that that shines through in every interaction.
After farming for over 40 years, I appreciate the quality of something well-built. I added the plywood floor and 12" spacing for the floor joists. After looking at competitive brands, yours stands out as not only the best quality but also the most favorable price. Give my regards to all of your workers, including the delivery guy, on a job well done!! It all shows attention to detail.
One important step in the buying process is knowing in advance of your purchase which payment options are available to you. If you're using a credit card, be sure that's a possible option before getting wrapped up in the shed selection and customization process. At Dakota, we offer three payment options: buy outright, financing, and rent-to-own.
