“The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.” – Benjamin Franklin
At Shed Village, we live by this idea every single day.
Building a backyard structure—whether it’s a cozy office, a sleek storage shed, or a garden retreat—is more than just a project. It’s an investment in your home, lifestyle, and long-term peace of mind. That’s why quality materials aren’t optional—they’re essential.
Let’s break down what goes into a Shed Village structure, and why our material choices make all the difference.
Strong from the Start: Durable Lumber Framing
Every solid shed starts with a solid frame. We use kiln-dried #2 or better spruce for wall studs and roof rafters. It’s stable, reliable, and perfect for Canada’s ever-changing seasons.
Depending on your design:
Our CanExel siding models are framed with 2x4s at 16″ on centre
Our Chalet siding models use 24″ on centre spacing
Larger structures like pavilions or cabanas may require 2×6 or even larger framing
Our team designs each structure to meet or exceed Ontario’s building codes, ensuring the integrity of your shed from day one.
Exterior Options That Withstand Ontario Weather
From summer heat to winter blizzards, your shed needs to hold up—and look good doing it.
We offer:
Maibec CanExel Engineered Wood Siding: Low-maintenance, fade-resistant, and rot-proof. This is our most popular choice for a reason. It’s sustainable, stunning, and stands the test of time.
35-Year Architectural Asphalt Shingles: A classic roofing choice that balances performance and aesthetics.
Metal Roofing: For clients who want maximum longevity with a modern edge. It’s tough, sleek, and built to last decades.
These materials aren’t just functional—they elevate your shed’s look and curb appeal.
A Floor That Can Handle Anything
No concrete pad? No problem.
We build your floor on a raised pressure-treated wood frame, topped with solid 5/8” plywood sheathing. This system:
Keeps the structure off the ground
Prevents water damage
Supports heavy equipment without sagging
Whether you’re storing tools or working from your shed daily, the floor will stay level and dry.
Sustainable Materials, Smarter Choices
Eco-conscious homeowners love that our materials aren’t just durable—they’re responsibly sourced.
Our engineered wood siding is produced with renewable materials
We partner with green-focused suppliers to reduce environmental impact
We offer solar panel-ready roofing options for energy-conscious clients
Great design doesn’t have to compromise on sustainability. With Shed Village, you get both.
Custom Finishes That Last
Your shed should match your taste—and your home. We offer:
Natural wood and maintenance-free trim options
Custom paint and stain finishes
Weather-resistant coatings for long-lasting beauty
These aren’t afterthoughts—they’re part of our commitment to high-quality craftsmanship. We work with you to bring your vision to life while ensuring every detail holds up through rain, snow, and sun.
Why Quality Shed Materials Matter
Low-quality sheds may save you a few dollars up front—but they’ll cost you in repairs, maintenance, and disappointment. Our clients don’t settle for that.
At Shed Village, we focus on one thing: building sheds that last.
No shortcuts
No cheap parts
Just smart, reliable construction using the best shed materials in Ontario
