"Jorge was wonderful!! Prompt response to my inquiry for a quote. Came out the next day from Auburn (we live in Edmonds) provided the quote and did the work all in the same day! Amazing! Also provided many photos showing the work he did. Besides cleaning the roof, he applied moss control. Cleaned and repaired our gutters!! I would totally recommend this company! Very easy to work with and work completed in a timely manner!"

"We had Plantrex do a deck resurfaced. After it was in, there was a tenant caused deck fire. Plantrex did an outstanding job on both the original resurface and on the deck repair and restoration after the fire. Cleanup, everything was great."

"If your'e looking for trustworthy and stress free remodel, these are your guys. My wife and I were away for almost the entire project. Sean managed it wonderfully. He updated us every step of the way. Crew was great and respectful towards our home and neighbors. They did our master bathroom and hopefully we can start working on ideas for our guest bathroom. Excellent job BZR if i could give more than a 5 star I would."

Worked closely with us on design suggestions and gave good feedback on materials and colors we were thinking and balanced our ideas with theirs. The work was very precise. They take great in the smallest detail and the work is of the highest quality!"

FAQs for shed, barn or playhouse building service projects in Tacoma, WA

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.
