DELIVERY

Once you place your order, we are here to ensure the smooth and timely delivery of your Shed Village kit. Your shipment will receive the proper care and attention from the moment it leaves our workshop to the time it arrives at your door.

Southwestern Ontario (Toronto and GTA)

Destinations within three hours of the Greater Toronto Area will generally be serviced by one of our Shed Village delivery trucks. Your kit will be conveniently offloaded by our drivers or crane in your driveway. Shipments are generally delivered Monday to Friday from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM. You do not need to be home at the time of delivery. A Shed Village representative will be in touch with you a few days prior to the shipping date to co-ordinate the delivery with you.

 

Other Canadian and USA Destinations

Shipping to other Canadian destinations or to the USA is handled by one of our specialized freight partners. Shipments will generally be delivered between 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM, and we do require that someone is on hand to receive it. (See details below.) For USA shipments, border services do require that you provide either your social security or tax ID number. A Shed Village representative will be in touch with you a few days prior to the shipping date to co-ordinate the delivery with you.

 

Unloading Your Shed Village Kit

Our kits are conveniently packaged in such a way that they may be unloaded piece by piece (pre-cut kits) or section by section (pre-assembled kits). Depending on the size, style, number of options, and format (i.e. pre-cut or pre-assembled) of your building, the weight and dimensions of your shipment will vary.

 

Weight of Pieces/Sections

Pre-cut kit: The heaviest piece in our precut kit is generally a 4×8 sheet of plywood that weighs approximately 35 pounds.

Pre-assembled kit: The heaviest piece in a pre-assembled kit is a wall section, which can weigh up to 250 pounds (even more if it’s one of our cabins or garages). This is manageable by two people of average strength. If you are at all concerned, it never hurts to have a third person close by to assist with the walls.

 

 

Warranty

Shed Village Inc. warrants each unit for defects in manufacturing for a period of two years from the date of retail purchase. Please note that natural characteristics of the material (ie. knots, small surface cracks and water stains or movement) will not constitute defects. At its option, Shed Village Inc. will repair, replace, or pay for the affected part or unit exclusive of installation. If a cash refund is paid on the affected part it will be pro-rated from the date of purchase. All Installed Products by Shed Village crews are guaranteed to be of equal or greater quality than our display models.

Frequently Asked Questions

View All FAQ

Please check with your local bylaws for your minimum setbacks from the fence or property line. These are normally around 24 inches. This applies to the side of your property as well. In most municipalities you are not allowed to build in front of the main house—with some exceptions. The normal maximum floor area is 106 sq. ft., with overall peak heights varying noticeably from one municipality to another. In the event you wish to apply for zoning permission to build a larger structure, we can certainly help you with the application process and drawings. Extra fees may apply.

For a level, well-draining site,  patio stones can be placed on top of your grass under the wood floor pressure treated runners. We typically use between  6-9, depending on the shed size. The patio stones are included in our installation service when you order a wood floor.

For areas with poor drainage, we recommend removing 6-8 inches of topsoil and replacing it with a crushed gravel base to allow the water to flow. The patio stones can then be placed on top of the gravel.

Cement pads are typically the best foundation for all sheds. The pad has to be a minimum 4″ thick and sit approximately 2″ above the grass line. It should be squared in the edges – not curved , and flat with no drainage slope. To hide the cement pad make it the same size as the shed floor. In cases where there is a large grade, cement footings are a better option.

We guarantee our installed We guarantee our installed products will meet or exceed the quality of the items displayed in the showroom. For a safe installation experience, please make sure that the work area is clear of any objects. This includes pet waste as well as tripping or electrical hazards. Trees and branches are to be cleared a minimum of 18″ from the site as well as 24″ above the roof peak height. Our installers require a working 15-amp outlet. If one is not available, please let us know, and we can make arrangements to bring our generator. In the vast majority of installations, you do not need to be home, as our team will have reviewed all details prior to the start of the project. As a courtesy to our builders, please refrain from engaging in frequent conversation or asking them to make additions or alterations not previously agreed to.

Our installed products include standard 25-year asphalt shingles. Larger roofs (over 96 sq. ft.) automatically include a roof vent. Felt paper is only used for cedar shingle upgrade applications. Our soffit and fascia design enable water to flow freely from the roof. Therefore, drip edges are not required but can be added for a small fee. You can also upgrade to 35-year architectural shingles. Pre-cut and pre-fab kits do not include shingles. We will offer you one of our stock colours at a fair price. Custom colours are difficult to obtain because the typical minimum order is 25 bundles. We do not offer eavestrough installation at this time.

All of our installed products include delivery within a 15 km radius of our Milton location. Beyond that, a delivery fee will be applied according to the distance. Customers are responsible for providing a minimum 3 ft wide x 6 ft high entrance with an unobstructed pathway to the jobsite. The standard installation service includes a carry back from where we can park our truck to the site of up to 100 ft. Beyond that, extra charges will apply. A delivery fee applies to all pre-cut and pre-fab kits.
