Have questions about your shed?
We have answers!
Here's How We Build It
- Your shed is built right on your property. No delivery, no dropping a box in your yard.
- We hand-carry all materials and tools from our trailer directly to the build site.
- We start by marking out the exact placement so it sits right where you want it.
- A pressure-treated floor joist system is built and leveled on-site as the foundation.
- Once everything is level and square, we install 3/4" subfloor decking.
- Walls are pre-built in our shop for precision, then moved into place on-site using a wall dolly.
- Roof trusses go up next, followed by OSB sheathing.
- The roof is finished with synthetic underlayment, drip edge, and architectural shingles.
- PVC trim is applied to all corners, windows, and door openings.
- Finally, we install door hardware and any add-ons you selected... ramps, shelving, whatever you ordered.
We have two main styles of sheds!
Both are good options, depending on what you need for your shed.
Here's the rewrite:
Not Much!
Once your shed design is locked in, all you need to do is be home the morning of your build to show us exactly where you want it placed.
Make sure any required permits or HOA approvals are taken care of before your scheduled date.
We also ask that the build area is cleared of debris beforehand... and yes, that includes the dog messes.
It will vary depending on the size of your shed... but typically it takes 1-3 days.
Weather is also a factor. We always do our best to build on the scheduled date if possible.
Our reviews are the real deal.
Every shed we build gets our full effort... the goal is always a 5-star experience. Does it go perfectly every single time? Honestly, no. But the overwhelming majority of our customers walk away happy, and many of them take the time to share that with others.
Reviews matter. They help future customers feel confident choosing us, and we're genuinely grateful for every single one we receive.
Yes!

We hand pick all of our materials so we can be sure they are the best quality.
- TuffBlocks foundations
Pressure treated 2x6 lumber floor joists
2x4 studs for all framing
3/4" thick Advantech for subfloors
1/2" thick OSB for roof sheathing
LP SmartSide Panels
GAF Timberline HDZ Shingles
PVC Trim
White single hung windows
The standard wall height is 6.5' tall.
If you'd like taller walls, we can upgrade to 7' and 8' tall walls for Classic Series Sheds.
Elite Series Sheds come standard with 8' tall sidewalls.
All of our base model sheds come standard with LP SmartSide panels, factory primed in tan. LP recommends painting the panels for long-term protection... and we make that easy.
Custom paint is available as an upgrade. We apply two coats of Sherwin Williams Emerald Rain Refresh... one of the best exterior paints on the market.
Absolutely! If you already have a slab, we can build directly on it as long as it matches the outer dimensions of your shed and is reasonably flat and level.
We don't pour concrete ourselves, but we work with trusted concrete pros who can handle that if you need a new slab installed.
Not sure which way to go? In most cases our standard treated wood floor system is the simpler and more affordable option... and it works great.
No! Since every shed is built on-site at your property, there are no delivery fees to worry about.*
For builds within the Fargo/Moorhead metro area, there are no mileage charges either. We show up with everything we need and get to work.
A mileage charge applies for locations 25+ miles outside of Fargo.
Full pricing details can be found here.
In Fargo and West Fargo, permits are required for any shed larger than 120 square feet.
In Moorhead, permits are required for any shed larger than 200 square feet.
Permitting is the responsibility of the homeowner and must be completed prior to your install date. We can help you through it though!
The team was professional and efficient in building our new shed. The final product was beyond our expectations. It looks fantastic. The key chain and thank you note was a nice professional touch.
The young man was very kind and respectful. We had seen a finished shed he had done for our SIL and was impressed with the quality of his work. He told us when to expect the delivery of the wood and it was on time. He showed up when he said he would. He worked hard all day and it showed in the quality of his work. The finished shed was awesome and definitely 100% better than if we had tried to do it. His price was very reasonable and he could have definitely charged more because the quality was exceptional. I would recommend him to anyone who wants a quality shed built.
What a wonderful experience! The shed is exactly as expected and all my questions were answered promptly and professionally. The yard was cleaned up with nothing for me to do but enjoy my shed! Thank you Square Shed!
Great communication and awesome build. Pricing was great and install went very fast. Highly recommend.
Square Shed did a fantastic job installing a shed in my yard. They arrived exactly when they said they would, were very respectful and friendly throughout the process, and finished it exactly on time and for the price agreed upon. If you need a reasonably priced shed built in your yard, Square Shed is absolutely the people to contact.
The process of working with Square Shed was professional, efficient and highly recommended. There was no impact to my property and it was amazing to see how they created a semi-prefabricated building and installation process with such great results.
Willing to answer all my questions. Great to work with. Crew is very professional and efficient! Great experience
Great experience. Shed is awesome. Professional work, good people skills, timely, and super job.
The Square Shed crew was top notch from start to finish. They were great on the build design, answering questions, and worked with me on any special requests. The whole process was on time and the clean up was so good, you wouldn't even know they were there. I highly recommend Square Shed for anyone.
I highly recommend these guys! They built me a 12x16 shed that I'll be using for a woodworking shop in my backyard. Even upgrading to 8' sidewalls, they were a better price than the prebuilt shed I was originally going to get. All around great experience, and I'm really happy with the build quality.
I have an 8x12 shed it was put up in one day . The workmanship is great. I could not have bought a more solid shed. The crew showed up and went to work working like fine team.
