I would strongly recommend your company to anyone looking for a shed. With your guidance, bringing the shed into Canada turned out to be no problem at all. I am impressed with quality of materials and design of the shed and I estimate that it took about 100 man-hours (for three of us) to construct the kit including all roofing and painting.
I'm a teacher with summers off, so I tackled this project over about six weekends with help from my brother-in-law. Best Barns really delivered on the "guided process" promise. The permitting checklist kept me organized, the instructions were clear enough that we didn't waste time backtracking, and when we hit a snag with the door header, their support team got back to me same-day with photos showing exactly what to do. The precut components saved us so much time, no measuring twice and cutting once, just assemble. The LP Smart Side looks great primed, and I painted it to match my house trim. Now I've got my car under cover and a whole bay for storage and projects. Worth every bit of effort.
What I love about this kit is that I only paid for what I needed. The core structure is top-notch - those prebuilt trusses and LP Smart Side panels are legit - but I got to pick my own garage doors, windows, and roofing to match my house and stay within budget. A pre-built garage would've cost me $18K+. This? Way less, and I got exactly what I wanted. The video instructions were clutch for someone like me who's handy but not a pro. My neighbors thought I hired someone until they saw me out there working on weekends. Two bays is perfect - one for the truck, one for all my gear and a workbench. Super glad I went this route.
I've wanted to add a garage for years but was intimidated by the idea of building one myself. The Tailored Titan changed that. Everything arrived organized and labeled—no dumping a truckload of lumber in my driveway and wishing me luck. The permitting templates were a lifesaver when I went to the building department, and the foundation guide meant I knew exactly what to prep before delivery day. I'm not gonna lie, there were moments I had questions, but their support team actually picked up the phone and walked me through it. Used one bay for parking and turned the other into a woodworking shop. Couldn't be happier with how solid this thing is. It's a real garage, not some flimsy shed pretending to be one.
After researching what would best suit my needs, I settled on the Crafted Colossal 32 x 16 building. I decided however that I wanted the barn doors on the side, not in the front, and that I’d rather have a regular mandoor in the front. The customization was simple. This is a huge benefit when purchasing a Best Barns DIY kit-extreme flexibility and customization. I work in I.T. and generally tell folks that a product is only as good as the support you receive. This product is great because the customer support was very responsive, patient, and helpful. I’m very pleased with the results.
I’ve built other shed kits before and they were a nightmare of loose parts and vague instructions. RapidShed was the complete opposite. Fewer pieces, everything labeled clearly, and the animation video plus printed instructions made it easy to follow. The LP SmartSide siding and gable roof give it a really clean look, and our neighbors have already asked where we got it. I’d absolutely buy another one.
I was honestly skeptical about the ‘build it in about an hour’ claim, but my husband and I had the RapidShed up in just over an hour and a half, taking our time. The preassembled wall panels made everything so straightforward, and using the pallet as part of the floor was genius. It feels solid, the 2x4 framing is no joke, and the transom windows make it look more like a tiny studio than a typical shed.
It turned out great and I got it painted just in time for snow. Thank you for your help. I’m recommending your company to everyone I know.
Skepticism crushed. I must say that I was a bit skeptical about buying a ‘pre-fabbed’ shed, but after taking one look at this kit, I jumped at it. As a “one-man” project, this kit went together fast and easy (took me about two full work days to complete) and overall I’d give this kit a 9.0 out of 10. I wholeheartedly recommend Best Barns and their products without reservation. Go with them, you won’t be disappointed!
"I couldn't be happier with my new Overhang Oasis shed! The unique front overhang not only gives it a stylish, finished look but also provides extra protection from the elements—perfect for keeping my workbench dry on rainy days. The overhead split loft design is a game-changer for storage, allowing me to neatly organize seasonal gear and tools without taking up valuable floor space. The step-by-step instructions made assembly a breeze, even for someone like me with minimal building experience. This shed is both functional and visually appealing—highly recommend!"
Very spacious and appealing look. Excellent kit and the support provided by the Best Barns Team was excellent. Delivery of kit was flawless and timely. I would recommend this kit to anyone.
Refreshingly surprised with ease of assembly. Instructions are well documented.
