In these days of declining house and real estate values it can sometimes be hard to do a major add-on to your home. It can be even tougher to sell and move elsewhere to accommodate your ever growing family's needs. Why move? Why not stay put and have get some enjoyment out of a new do-it-yourself building project by erecting a storage shed in the backyard? With a little research you may be amazed to find the size of shed that you can build in your garden or backyard without complex zoning permission. The starting point here is to go to your local Council offices to find out about the local zoning laws regarding the building of a garden shed on your property.
The exciting thing about building a shed is the fun of building it yourself, to the level of comfort that you need or want. Many store bought sheds are flimsy in construction, often made out of thin plastic, and only suitable for storing small garden tools. You however, can easily build something a whole lot better by yourself to suit your own needs. It's not as hard as you might think.
Building a shed to suit your own needs begins first with an plan that shows the structural design but also takes into consideration insulation, wiring, heating and finishes, whatever suits your personal needs. Take time at this stage to make your shed a place you can enjoy and want to spend more of your spare time, rather than a haven for spiders and other creepy insects!
Constructing a shed to be well built, moisture and draught-proof is well within the reach of most able DIY-ers, even if they don't think so. First thing is selecting a suitable spot in the garden which will complement your house. Have a look at a number of different ideas of what you are looking for and choose the one that best suits your scheme. It may match your house or it may contrast it. It may be rustic in appearance it may be ultra-modern. In the end it's all about what suits you best.
How you use this extra space will be different for each individual, but the most simple is a storage shed to free up storage space in the main house. Another common thought is a garden office which enables a division to be drawn between work and home - an important thing according to most experts. I could give different examples all day, the most extravagant I ever herd of was someone constructing a building in the garden to house a swimming pool, gym and solarium. Now thats what i call a pleasure shed if there ever was one.
In my opinion constructing a shed offers the best bargain for your buck. With just a little studying you can build a shed in your backyard or garden to the same standards as a house, for less cost than the real estate agent fees that would be incurred in moving elsewhere larger. Plus you will be adding value to your house that you can realise when it a better time to move elsewhere.
