"Excellent contractor! I went with LA Experts Builders on my kitchen and bathroom remodel and it was a great experience to work with them. Nir and his crew were always on time, did everything as they promised and as I requested. There were no issues and project was finished on time. I am completely satisfied with final product, in other words, my new kitchen and bathroom are brilliant!"

"Me and my husband had the best experience working with Progressive Builders. We had Ben in charge of our project and he always was so quick to respond to any question or concern we had. He is so creative and have great ideas. We are so happy with our new master bathroom, and will be doing more work with them. So happy thank you for being an honest and trustworthy company!"

"Progressive home remodeling did an above-average job on my bathroom remodeling project. The timeframe was set in stone from the very beginning. I appreciate their professionalism and willingness to accommodate my budget. My bathroom looks precisely how I envisioned it. I plan on hiring this company again for future projects because they remained consistent throughout the entire project. This is the kind of company you want inside your home. They also accommodate budgets and base the project on whatever yours is!"

"Perfect!!! We originally d to repaint the whole house. Since that was out of our budget, we asked Tony to touch up our walls. When he finished, it looked like we had brand-new walls!!! Although it's the same beige color we already had, they look spectacular!!! He did the whole house in about 6hrs."

"Cielo Construction has completed several projects in our house including the remodeling of our guest bathroom, master bathroom, kitchen and living room area. The design and remodeling was a custom European style/modern while the bathroom included a walk in tile shower, jet shower system, home automation and more… part of the design was to reposition the door opening for a much better use of space. Cielo construction staff helped us by selecting all of the finish materials including the tiles, upper and lower cabinets, accessories and more… including the color/style of the paint. Mike included also in his work the remodeling of the guest bathroom, drywall, type of texture, baseboards etc. He has excellent, professional craftsmanship and creativity skills. Cielo constructions approach and talent to meet our deadlines were fantastic and he was able to finish the remodeling project on time. We definitely recommend Cielo Construction and all the involved people that worked at our house for any type or style of construction or remodeling projects. We are very pleased with the completed project and we will hire them again for more upcoming projects. Thanks Cielo construction for a great job from a very happy customer."

FAQs for shed, barn or playhouse building service projects in Santa Ana, CA

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.
