Shed Advice - Tuftonboro
I'd like to have a standard 8x12 shed built this year at our mainland cottage in Tuftonboro. I'm taking a year off from major construction projects, so I'd like to minimize my labor and just pay to have it done.
I haven't called around yet, but I noticed one ad in the Granite State News from ABC Shed. There's also a NH company called Post Woodworking. I've checked out the town building code on sheds, and I'm all set there. Any recommendations on shed builders and costs? Thanks... -Alan |

Is it done? Are you happy?
Chocophile-
How did you make out? I'm hoping that you will share what you learned. I too am in Tuftonboro and have been thinking about adding a shed perhaps larger than what you were describing. Any wisdom you'd care to share re: permits, contractors, etc? Thanks |

8x12 Shed
Go to Superior Fence on Rte 3 in Tilton. I just bought one from them After a lot of research and a lot of driving, I found theirs to be the best built around....things like 16" on center 2x4's.....3/4" flooring.....pressure treated 4x4's underneath. Pricing is about the same as the others but I feel I got more value because of the better quality construction.

post woodworking is in danville, nh. their sheds are prefabricated so you may be charged extra travel time. from what i have heard though their quality is very good. the type of siding, windows, and doors you choose will have a big impact on the final cost of your shed. with that in mind their least expensive 8X12 is approx. $2200. and you would still need to paint or stain it.

Shed Built
We bought a shed from ABC Sheds in Tamworth (Rt. 16). The owner of the business, Henry, is quite a colorful guy! He takes a lot of pride in his work. It was 8x12, single 4' wide opening on the long side (two doors). It cost $1800. He built it about 3 weeks after we ordered it; construction took 2 days. He does not paint or stain the shed.
The quality is very good, and we were pleased with the service. Our neighbors liked it so much they ordered a shed from him while he was building ours. The town code for Tuftonboro is that you may build an outbuilding of less than 100 sq. ft. without a building permit as long as it complies with required set-backs (I believe that's 20 feet). I wanted to find someone local in case I had a problem or wanted something a little different. |
