12 X 24 Detached Garage/Shed

Highly recommend Shedman. Their communication from start to finish was fantastic. They always showed up when they said they would or advised if they wouldn’t be coming due to weather. The quality of workmanship is excellent.

Detached garage

I hired Shedman to build a detached garage for me (18' x 22'). They did an amazing job. Everything worked out perfectly every step of the way. The process could not have been simpler.
1. They will provide a very detailed quote so you know exactly what you are paying for. Then you can tweak whatever you want and they will readjust.
2. You get your own permit (You may not need one depending on what you are doing). In Ajax, getting the permit is not that big of deal. Just google how to get permits in what town you live in and get in touch with the town to find out all the rules and regulations.
3. Once you know all the rules you have to follow for sizing and location (and there are a lot of rules) you can go back to Shedman and get them to tweak the quote again.
4. The crew who builds the garages will come out at some point before you start spending any money to check your yard and make sure the spacing/grading etc is suitable for your build.
5. Shedman works with an Architect so she will prepare the drawings for your permit.
6. You submit your permit application (In Ajax this is not a big deal, all you have to do is fill out some basic paper work about what you are doing and scan this and the drawings over to the town and of course pay a small fee).
7. Shedman will let you know when they can start. Your work is now finished.

I was kept informed of everything that was happening-if the crew was coming over to work, if we were expecting an inspector to come over, if they were not coming due to rain, etc. Marika and Randi in the office have excellent communication.

Every person who was involved with this project was so great and easy to deal with. My contacts were Marika and Randi in the office, and Mike on the crew.

Everyday when the crew left, everything was cleaned up. You could not even tell that they were there, except for the major progress made.

Please note, Shedman only builds structures, if you want additional things such as electrical or an epoxied floor you make your own arrangements for that. They can refer you to companies who do this if that helps you. My price listed in my approximate cost is for the structure only.

In terms of pricing Shedman was the only quote I got, but I thought it was fairly priced. What really sold me on hiring Shedman was the fact that they are a one stop shop for the structure. What I did not want was to have to find my own architect, cement person, roofer, garage door installer, etc. I wanted one person/company to handle all of that for me which is exactly what you get with Shedman.

I am so glad I hired Shedman, I love my new garage so much!

Two car detached garage with breezeway

Starting in mid November they were able to take down the breezeway and garage, and the cement pads, take it all away, tidy up, and start the build. By mid January they had put down the new cement pads, built our splendid new garage, and finished the breezeway.
The crew was wonderful, skilled, pleasant to have around, and efficient, as well as tidying up the work site as they went along.
Highly recommend them, and they put us in touch with additional trades that were equally good, such as electrical crew.

Garage Replacement

My old garage was beyond repair. Each day they came, they made wonderful progress. Removed and disposed of old garage and cement floor in a day. Total construction was done rapidly and quietly (my neighbours had to use their eyes to tell if they were on site). I am completely satisfied. Thanks everyone.

Back Yard Shed

We hired Shedman last summer to build a shed in our backyard. The process was quick and easy from visiting their showroom to the final build. They worked with us every step of the way. Our shed looks fantastic!

Garage renovation

We have a garage that needed to be repaired as it was old and falling apart. We did the specs and quote with Randi over the phone. She was very helpful and knowledgeable. They also worked with us in getting our permit with the city. Shedman comes highly recommended. Mike and his crew were professional and very accommodating. The garage is well constructed and you really can't beat the price with anyone else in the city. A pleasure to deal with!

Shed

Experience was less than par
1) They never showed up when I was home--nor did they ever tell me exactly when they would be here. Saw them once by accident during the whole project. Had to email things to office to get anything done. Not ideal. I asked for them to come a number of times and meet to review things -- they told me one Friday they would be here and never showed -- no call or apology -- and I stayed home from work.
2) The work was a custom shed -- I told the office I want to be nice cedar shakes etc...I got cedar shingles -- cheap windows etc...effectively they have no ability to consult on a higher end job. These guys are on the low end. Build fast -- pre-fab ..pick from a catalogue -- if that's what you like...probably the place for you
3) I happen to have played hockey with the owner years ago-- and requested to speak with him again --- he finally showed--- but wait he sent someone else -- I don't think they new I knew the owner --- disappointed --- they just want to get in get out and get paid --- again a low end volume driven business

Customer service was well below par. To this day I have still not heard from him.

I could go on but I won't ---I would also like to say this is the very first review on anything that I have every written. I am not a complainer.

GARDEN STORAGE SHED

We had a 20 year old wood shed that needed to be replaced. We found Shedman listed on HomeStars and went to visit their showroom here in Pickering. We were please to find that they had many design options and styles to choose from. We spoke with Randi, who walked us through the different models. She is very knowledgeable and went over all aspects on the project with us. We wanted a total maintenance free shed and with her help we selected a vinyl shed with a shingled roof. We book an appointment, and other then a one day delay do to rain, they finished as scheduled. They removed our old shed and took everything on day one and day two our new shed was installed. All of their staff was very courteous and the install was efficient and very professional. We were impressed with the quality and workmanship and our new shed looks amazing. We would recommend Shedman without hesitation.

Cedar Shed

Shedman installed a beautiful cedar shed in our backyard. We loved working with them. They were professional, efficient and the quality of the workmanship was fantastic. They cleaned up the work site completely and compelted the job in a few hours. We really liked the fact that we could completely customize the shed to our needs.

Shed Supply and Install

I was fortunate enough to be gifted with a Shedman shed by a friend. I selected a 4 x 8 shed.
The installation time was booked with Shedman and the 2 man crew arrived at the appointed time. The installers were friendly and competent. The install took about 2 hours (I had previously placed pavers on which the shed sits).
I am very pleased with the shed. It is well constructed and looks great.
