NexGen worked closely with our insurance company ensuring we received all of the compensation we needed and were due.

FAQs for shed, barn or playhouse building service projects in Philadelphia, PA

When building a shed, you should hire a general contractor or a local shed-building specialist. The ideal professional will have experience constructing the type of shed you want and can provide a detailed estimate and timeline. Ensure they have proper licensing and insurance and can handle additional services like land clearing and material hauling.

The type of shed you need depends on your budget, intended use, and property specifics. If you want an affordable and quick solution, prefabricated sheds are cost-effective but offer limited customization. Custom-built sheds allow you to tailor features like wall height, square footage, workspace, and window placement to your exact needs. Consider materials, durability, and local zoning regulations when choosing between prefab and custom sheds to ensure the shed meets your requirements.

The average cost to build a barn varies widely based on size, style, and intended use. American barn-style sheds typically cost between $3,000 and $7,000, providing a rustic storage solution. Larger, commercial-style barns range from $25,000 to $80,000 and are suitable for housing livestock or large equipment. Depending on the barn's style, you can expect to pay $15 to $50 per square foot. Additional factors like materials, labor, and custom features like stalls or storage lofts will also influence the total cost.

Building a shed can take anywhere from a few hours to several days, depending on the type and complexity of the project. Prefabricated sheds can be assembled in 4 to 8 hours, providing a quick storage solution. On the other hand, custom-built sheds may take 2 to 5 days to construct on-site. Size, design features, and weather conditions can also affect the timeline.

Building a shed can enhance your property's functionality but may not significantly increase its market value. While a well-built shed provides extra storage or workspace that can appeal to potential buyers, it typically does not add to the home's appraised value. However, in areas with limited storage space, a high-quality shed might make your property more attractive on the market, potentially influencing buyer interest positively.
