"We had a great experience with Cer Custom Renovations. The work was completed about four months ago, but I waited to share a review until after we had lived in the space for a little while. Our remodeling project involved finishing half our basement to put in place a bedroom, full bathroom, and a rec room–and we are very pleased with the results. The folks at Cer Custom Renovations did a great job (no issues at all!), and they were very easy to work with. The scheduling was clear, and they were communicative throughout. Our main objective in moving forward with this project was to create a space that would allow us to better host guests, and we feel that we now have it. I would definitely recommend Cer Custom Renovations to others."

Ray arrived on time every day with a pleasant demeanor. He was willing to do any small things I found that needed attention, since this was not a new house. He worked quietly and meticulously and left his work area clean and neat every day. It was just a pleasure to have him around.

One anecdote: I had miscounted the amount of cash I gave him at the end, giving him $300 too much. He counted it and could have easily kept it-- I wouldn't have noticed. But instead he told me. I was so impressed...and grateful.

Florida Lifetime was terrific. They are extremely knowledgeable, professional and punctual. Anything we wanted to know about windows they knew. They did a beautiful job. The windows are well installed and because of this the temperature in our home is constant now. The county building inspector came by and was actually impressed with the work done, that we gave him the company's number. I would absolutely use them again.

"Very impressive. Dave was very patient and was able to immediately replace the washers thus stopping all leaking around the handles in the tub/shower but we knew it was going to be difficult finding the replacement parts. But Dave persevered and after several days of checking at different stores as he traversed the Tampa Bay area he located the matching parts in small store in Plant City."

"Three personnel worked over a period of 7-8 days. They worked leisurely and with a little more effort the work could have been completed in half the time. The payment agreement was that I would pay a flat labor fee to Robertson and I would pay for all materials. I was quoted a material cost of $500 and I ended up spending over $1500 which I had not planned in advance to pay. The shed looks like new except that it needs a 2nd coat of stain that I, a 70 yr old man will have to do myself. All personnel were very polite and easy to like with a good sense of humor. Yo man, they did good!!!!"

FAQs for shed, barn or playhouse building service projects in Auburndale, FL

Most sheds larger than six feet by eight feet require a foundation to remain level and dry. A compact tool shed might get by without one, but anything heavier should sit on at least a 4-inch-thick stone-and-gravel pad that extends two feet past the walls. The gravel protects wood skids and promotes drainage. If you want maximum stability—and your budget allows—a poured concrete slab is the strongest option.

Your ideal shed size hinges on purpose. A common 10-by-12-foot kit gives you 120 square feet—plenty for lawn tools and bikes. Need just a spot for a mower and a few rakes? A compact 4-by-7-foot model should work. If you’re envisioning a workshop or hobby room, look at 12-by-16 feet or larger.

A good rule is to raise the shed floor four to six inches above the surrounding soil. That clearance encourages water to drain away instead of pooling beneath the structure. The simple step is especially important for wood floors and skids, helping deter rot, mold, and insect damage while extending the life of your new outbuilding.

Choose the route that fits your goals. Prefab sheds arrive in standard layouts and go up fast—perfect for basic storage on a tight timeline. Custom builds cost more and take longer, but let you add windows, wiring, plumbing, and unique finishes. Balance budget, features, and timeframe before deciding which type of shed is best for your needs.
