"David was the right choice from the beginning. He saved me a lot of time and money by not wasting materials. David and his crew used every bit of the materials they could. They used pieces and pieced parts of my house together to save me as much money as he could on materials. My DREAM HOME became reality thanks to David. He built me a second smaller home for my daughter and grandchildren next door. I would highly recommend David to everyone that needs a house, barn, garage, or work shop built. I can't thank David enough for what he did for me and my family. He took our dreams and made them reality."

I am someone who loves working with my hands. I have built everything from tables and chairs to pergolas and fully functional wood shops. No matter the size of scope of the project I work to ensure that every job is completed with quality. I love to work with all of my clients, whether I am solving an issue they have or bringing their vision to life. You can be as involved or hands off as you would like. My goal is to make sure you are happy when I am finished.

"Very well! I entered my info on Angi and less than 2 minutes later, I got their call. An hour or so later, the workmen showed up to access the repairs needed. They called the info into their office and a couple of minutes later, I got a call with the estimate. After my acceptance, work began. The owners came and checked on the work while it was being done. They were gracious, knowledgeable, and showed attention to detail. I’m had less than stellar dealings with fence companies in the past and expected much the same this time. This company proved me wrong! If you’re looking for fence repair, search no more!!"

FAQs for shed, barn or playhouse building service projects in Ennis, TX

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.
