"I've worked with many contractors over the years and JJB is the best I've worked with for residential remodeling. That's no small statement. JJB is responsive, communicative, on-time and on-schedule, does not cut corners, always willing to tackle new issues or problems that arise during construction, respectful of neighbors / other tenants, and very fairly priced for the quality of work that they provide. We even had some city permitting issues from prior construction that JJB was able to take on and get cleared up. I can't express how much headache this saved me! On top of being great contractors, Joe and Jeff and their team are also just great people - very personable, easy to communicate with, and a pleasure to be around. They really desire to make their customers happy and to do good work. You won't find any cheap shortcuts or shoddy work with this team. When the time comes for another construction job in the area, they will be my first call. I really can't give much of a higher recommendation than that!"

"Doors look great and they did s good job installing. There was a minor misunderstanding in regards to pricing out the right doors. The doors I really wanted were a lot more money, but glad I went with them as they are perfect."

"We couldn't be happier with the work that Construct Boss did for us. We had an idea of what we wanted, and with the suggestions they gave, or basement turned out better than we hoped for. The entire basement was done on time and on budget."

"258 Renovations was great to work with. We needed a bathroom added to our basement, but didn't have walls, plumbing, or anything. The crew worked quickly and Mitch made sure to pull all the proper permits. Further, if there was any sort of issue, Mitch made sure to correct it immediately. 258 Renovations was great to work with and I would hire them again."

"My mother lives with and cares for my elderly grandparents in Glendale, Wisconsin. I'm a California Angie's List member who did add-a-city to help them find services in their area. I made a list, sent it to Mom and she called a few companies for estimates. J & B were great from the first contact. This house needed a lot of work and J & B were incredibly helpful and kind. We knew what the problems were but weren't even certain where to begin or what kind of service we needed. They explained everything in detail to my mother and really earned her trust on the jobs performed. Their work teams were polite and friendly. There were frequent, friendly phone calls to update the status of each job and set times for the next task to be done. My mother's exact quote is "Everything turned out perfect". My mom was so overwhelmed by what had to be done, she was hesitant to even get started, but once J&B were on the job, she was pleased and excited to see the project coming together in such capable hands. She was thrilled to find this company and would recommend them to anyone. She is not online so I'm filing the report for her. It took a while to get all the info from her, but she wanted to be sure she gave them a great recommendation on Angie's list. I have been back to Wisconsin since the work was finished and can verify that the work done on the house looks wonderful."

FAQs for shed, barn or playhouse building service projects in Milwaukee, WI

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.
