Which is cheaper and easier to build and cheaper 10′x12′ storage shed or a 10′x12′ building?

wood storage shed Add comments

I’m planning in putting in a 10′x12′ wood storage shed. I plan on having it bricked in at a later time to save money. What should the foundation be for the shed initially and how much should each part cost (storage shed, bicked in (with labor), concrete slab (if needed)). The other option is to have a 10′x12′ building built instead. How much would that cost and which is easier to build and less costly.

Thank You for your help


cost depends on area…. But yes if you plan on bricking it the best solution is installing a slab with footings and a brick ledge so that your brick will not settle and crack. at this point I would put in doors windows skylights so that you are please with it since it will cost a good little bit of money. think abou a steep pitch roof so that you can have storage in the attic.

    sounds like you need to get a hold of a contractor, for estimates,
