Once you have determined how you will use your building, the next step is deciding its size and style. Though a small shed will be less expensive than large storage buildings, you do not want a building that you will grow out of in a short time. Pack Sheds offers many shed styles and sizes, from 8' x 8' up to larger 16' x 24'.
Style: We offer three styles available in any dimensions within our size range. Each style has three options with different roof pitches to maximize vertical storage. We also offer the option to choose between 7' and 8' side walls to ensure that each customer is satisfied with their space.
We build quality garden sheds and storage sheds on site in Raleigh, Cary, Garner, Apex, Willow Spring, Fuquay Varina, Holly Springs, Clayton, Angier, Wendell, Durham, Morrisville, Wake Forest, Knightdale, and other areas surrounding Raleigh, NC. We build quality storage sheds for a range of purposes, on-site in all the listed locations.
Backyard Sheds are great for:
We offer three different shed styles; The Organizer, The Manor, and Classic Barn style. Both the Organizer and The Manor offer three sub-options for changes in roof pitch.
The base level option has a 5/12 roof pitch. The Organizer Plus and Manor Plus have a 7/12 roof pitch. The Organizer Elite and Manor Elite have a 9/12 roof pitch. The Classic Barn comes with a Gambrel style roof.
Storage sheds are a significant investment. Ask yourself:
Why do I need a storage building?
Think about the purpose of your building to determine the size and style you need.
What size building do I need?
What will you be placing inside your storage building? Will there be room for it all, and will you have easy access to what you need?
Will my shed add value to my home?
An attractive building does increase your home’s appeal and selling value. Make sure your building adds to your home, instead of detracting from the appearance. Keeping your building well-maintained is also important.
Where should I place my building?
You need to adhere to municipal and HOA setback rules. You need to have it in a location that will be safe. You need easy access to go in and out. You want your building to line up nicely with your home.
Do I need permission to build a shed?
You need to check with your HOA and possibly complete an application with its architectural committee. You need to check with your municipality to see if you need a zoning or building permit.
Why should I choose having my shed built on-site vs. a big box store/prefab shed?
Big box store shed, at first glance, looks less expensive, but cheap often will cost you more. These sheds do not always meet permit guidelines. Often, corners are cut by not including tightly spaced joists, gripe-rite paper under shingles, or eaves to protect your siding. Frequently, you are limited to kits that may not have the design or placement of doors and windows you would like. They may not be built on-site, so you cannot bring them into your yard if you have narrow access or fencing.
At Pack Sheds, we welcome your custom designs for storage buildings and sheds, which our skilled builders can bring to life. Our portfolio includes a diverse range of structures such as she-sheds, guest cottages and outdoor offices, among others. You have the freedom to personalize every detail – from siding and doors to windows and overall styling – ensuring your outdoor building is uniquely tailored to your preferences.
If you can imagine it, we can build it.
Sometimes in order to offer a slightly lower price, shed dealers will charge separately for items they know are needed. With Pack Sheds, we include the basics required for a quality building. You don’t pay for what you don’t need, but have the option of adding anything you like to your building.

Options to consider and available:
Pack Sheds, LLC will be happy to help you with your shed permitting or take care of the process on your behalf. Since large buildings are our specialty, we work closely with local municipalities on a daily basis and will be more than happy to help you with this process.
Pack Sheds will assist you by providing you with pictures of your shed design showing materials and workmanship, along with front and side elevation. We are the preferred builder for many local subdivisions for this reason. They know we will build a quality building that meets all of their requirements. We even meet with developers to put together approved shed packages which are guaranteed approval!
Storage Sheds or utility buildings are an extension of your home, which will give you good use for many years. Think of them as an investment, not an expense. An attractive storage building also makes your home more attractive to prospective buyers.
Still, you may want to think of ways to reduce the initial cost for your outside building.
Build time has many outside factors aside from the actual project such as HOA requirements and approval, obtaining a permit, and weather conditions. At Pack Sheds we pride ourselves in not sacrificing quality for speed.
Our commitment starts by enlisting dependable and seasoned builders such as Joe, Joel, Robert, Tucker, and Dave. Each member of our dedicated shed-building team brings extensive experience and craftsmanship to the table.
They excel in their work and offer valuable guidance on shed options, ideal locations, and various styles. Their on-site construction approach mirrors that of building a house, ensuring meticulous attention to detail, quality and the opportunity to ensure you're happy with our product every step of the way. At our company, we highly value each builder's expertise and dedication to delivering exceptional results.
Yes, Pack Sheds does build on-site. Using a standard pickup and utility trailer we will transport all materials to the build site. You choose the size, style, and options you want for your backyard building, and tell us where you want them. We help you put the shed where you would like it based on where you are allowed to have it, following guidelines for easements and sewer repair areas.
Fences, small gates, creeks, and septic systems are not an issue. If we can get within 50 ft of the spot, there is no charge; otherwise, there is a nominal carry charge, which goes in full to your shed builder for his time and trouble.
We prefer that you be at home when we arrive to construct your building. We can discuss the area where you want the building and make sure that your storage building is oriented the way you want in regards to your home and yard.
You do not, however, have to remain at home while we finish your building. Once it is laid out as you desire, you can go about your daily activities. Once we have completed your building, you can inspect it and make sure that everything is to your specifications.
We offer four different types of siding. These include Vinyl, LP Smartsiding, Fiber Cement, and Board & Batten. Siding may depend on any HOA requirements and/or customer preference. For more siding information please check out our Features and Add-Ons drop down.
You do not, however, have to remain at home while we finish your building. Once it is laid out as you desire, you can go about your daily activities. Once we have completed your building, you can inspect it and make sure that everything is to your specifications.
It is up to you how much preparation you put into your yard before getting a shed. If you are getting a concrete pad, we can help you find a contractor who will do a good job.
Make sure there are no large stumps in the yard where you want the storage shed to be located. There is no reason to kill the vegetation since the lack of sun under the shed will kill it off. If you are concerned, you can put down a moisture barrier or gravel for a base.
If your lot is unlevel, we will use blocking to level it. You also have the option of leveling the spot before we arrive. Your shed will still be stable and level, even if the ground is not. There are different skirting materials that can be used to hide the blocks that can be discussed further.
For safety and quality purposes please make sure that all children and pets stay clear of the build-site.
Pack Sheds uses T-Lock & keys as standard for sheds, and also offer steel doors, or metal doors, roll up doors with padlocks, residential doors with deadbolt locks for more shed security. We also can install decorative octagonal or transom windows to give light while still maintaining privacy. Transom windows can be place on the wall, above doors and in the doors of storage sheds.
Pack Sheds will offer the addition of lofts, shelving, pegboards, hooks, etc, in your storage shed to make organizing your belongings easy. We can reinforce your floor to support heavy tools and cabinets. For exceptionally heavy items, consider requesting extra floor joists, larger floor joists, or mobile home pier pads.
It is highly recommended that you caulk and paint storage sheds within the first 6 months as they are completed. An acrylic Latex Exterior house paint is the best choice. As with any exterior painting, two coats are better than one. A better quality of paint will give better coverage and will last longer. Exterior Latex Semi-Gloss house paint will endure severe weather conditions better and will repel dirt and stains far better than a flat finish. ALWAYS PAINT THE TOP, BOTTOM, AND INSIDE OF STORAGE SHED DOORS to prevent warping and give sheds extra protection from damaging weather elements. All exterior trim will need to be primed before painting. Prior to any painting, please be sure to caulk with a paintable caulk. Butyl and silicone caulks repel paint and are NOT RECOMMENDED. Caulking should be done on all seams, including door trim, eaves, and corner trim. For vinyl sheds, make sure to routinely power-wash your storage shed to keep the colors clean and bright.
Make sure that you maintain airflow around storage buildings. Leaves, and other debris can accumulate around sheds and block the air flow beneath the building.
Our 25-30 year shingles come standard with a grip-rite paper underlay. Our storage sheds come with a warranty on workmanship and against settling issues, as well as a limited life-time service warranty. We can recommend an experienced local shed painter, who will assist you with matching colors, painting and caulking.
Hopefully, this guide has helped you to focus on what type of storage buildings are best for your needs. Once you are ready to purchase a shed, we would appreciate your giving us the opportunity to earn your business. Let’s build together!!
