    Our little house in Pacifica.
    Christie R.

    Hector and his team, initially run by David, were fantastic. During the initial discussion, Hector proved to have an excellent grasp of architecture, construction, and the costs associated with the various aspects of building an AUD. He was knowledgeable about local permits and the importance of informing our neighbors and the HOA about our plans. Everything ran very smoothly! And as Hector anticipated, the work took almost exactly 1 month to complete. Hector communicated with me regularly by email or text about work plans. There was only one 2 day delay (windows took a couple days longer to come in than expected). From what others have shared, that is minor in the scheme it things. Hector was great at asking about details over time, so he didn't overwhelm us. He confirmed as he systematically planned and ordered items - like paint colors and boarders, type of door, type of windows, outlet locations, wiring (we brought in an outside electrician for the house to house work), etc. What a change this finished little house has made in our lives! Our kids have more space, my husband is no longer working in a kids room, and we all have another spot to chill out when needed. I'm so in love with our little house. I highly recommend going with Best Shed Ever because you will end up with THE BEST SHED EVER!

    We love our new shed built by the Best Shed Ever team. Arles and his crew were awesome to work with! The project took just under a month to complete and we are so happy with how it turned out, as we use the shed as an office space every day. The quality of craftsmanship, the crew's attention to detail, and the level of communication were excellent. There were no change orders or surprises and Arles was proactive in reaching out to keep us updated on scheduling and timing. Couldn't recommend them more highly!

    The Best Shed Ever team was a pleasure to work with. Arles came by our house and put together a 12'x6' shed design that fit perfectly into a limited space area in our backyard. We worked out a fair price for the shed and the construction started about 2 weeks later. It only took the 2 carpenters a day and a half to build and paint the shed. The paint was a perfect match to our house. They workers were prompt, friendly and did meticulous work. I highly recommend Best Shed Ever to others.

    Original Chief Architect drawing

    I shopped for a shed company for about a year until I found Best Shed's website and went browsing through their ample gallery (go to their website to see the whole thing - there are hundreds of sheds to look at). There was a shed that stood out - entirely clad in real stone, and sporting wood beams. It had a VERY rustic look. I knew I had finally found my builder! I designed the look of the shed in Chief Architect software (not strictly necessary, but I've done eight renovations and now it's how I do things), and hired Hector and his team to figure out how to build it. Picture of the rendered concept-shed attached. Hector was VERY patient and indulged my weird passion for building a very small half-timber tavern (I'm in San Francisco and we're limited to 100 sqft). Truth be told, I'm not the hardest customer to deal with, I'm pretty easy going - but I did want A LOT of stuff. And he never gave up or tried to talk me out of all the bits I wanted. For that I'm grateful. :) My little shed/cabin/tavern includes custom stained glass windows (stainedglasswindows.com) the art for which was created from ai, reclaimed barnwood for the half-timber look, stucco for the plaster, chandelier and torch lighting from Romania and Ukraine, blacksmith made hardware from Indiana, and a barn door from Rustica.com. And the shed is a proper building. It is insulated, has full electricity, is fully finished inside and has glued in hardwood floors. It's like a real house (no plumbing, but that's more San Francisco Planning Dept's fault than Best Shed's). I will be honest... it took a while. But that's nothing new for coordinating a variety of trades coupled with trying to build something complicated outdoors over the rainy months. And of this writing it's 94% complete, only missing it's stone footing but I have every confidence that will be coming soon. And what you're asking - price. You aren't going to build what I did (because why would you? You will have your own dream) but I deal with contractors all the time and I thought Best Shed Ever's prices were lower than average for similar work. Simply put - if you have a simple shed or something heavy concept like mine, I wouldn't hesitate a moment to give Best Shed Ever a call.

    Finished product. High ceiling shed with custom paint job.

    We had an incredible experience working with Shed Mania from start to finish. We came into the…read moreproject with a pretty specific vision for turning an old backyard structure into a finished office and storage space, and the final product genuinely exceeded what we had imagined. What stood out most was the level of communication and attention to detail throughout the entire process. John, Song, and the team were incredibly responsive, moved quickly, and kept us informed at every stage. They took the time to understand not just what we wanted the space to look like, but how we planned to use it, and that thoughtfulness showed up in so many of the design and construction details. They were also extremely accommodating as the project evolved. Whenever we had a question, wanted to adjust something, or noticed a small detail we wanted refined, they were receptive and worked with us to get it right. There was never a sense that they were simply trying to finish the job and move on--they clearly cared about the quality of the finished space and went above and beyond to make sure we were happy with it. The craftsmanship is excellent, the process was remarkably smooth, and everything came together faster than we expected for a project of this size. What started as a dilapidated backyard structure is now a beautiful, thoughtfully designed office that feels like a true extension of our home. We couldn't be happier with the experience or the finished result. If you're considering a backyard studio, office, shed, or similar project, I would recommend Shed Mania without hesitation. They took our ideas seriously, sweated the details, and ultimately brought our vision to life better than we could have hoped.

Our build was a bigger project, 330sq ft with a bathroom we knew would be relatively tricky, but we trusted the team at Shed Mania. The team understood the vision and the finished product is what we wanted. It matches the style of our mid-century house and complements the property very nicely. The structure has given our family the space we needed to live and work comfortably for the forseeable future. And shoutout to the crews that worked on it, all were friendly and great to be around.

This WONDERFUL place has a HUGE assortment of pottery in so many colors, shapes, and sizes. I gotta add that our yards are beautiful thanks to being able to shop there. We get so many compliments from our neighbors and friends about the matching colors and sizes of the planted pottery in our backyard and front yard. I highly recommend you go and look around at the Plant and Pottery Outlet! You won't be disappointed, even my Honeyman enjoys going there, seriously. Also, we are older seniors, so we appreciate them loading our purchases in our SUV. And, when we buy HUGE pieces of pottery, we ask them about a delivery man that delivers. The guy delivery guy doesn't work for them, but they call him if you ask; and he's delivered to our home for a fee about four times through the years, which was well worth his price.
