Thinking about investing in a aluminum shed for the backyard. Does anyone have any background on eagle sheds or another brand?
Thanks

I have a 20 x 35 Carolina Carport. Simply for boat, atv, tool and utility storage. I did power and outlets myself then had it sprayfoam insulated.

For my needs a Mueller or similar building wasnt worth 2x the cost. If I ever build one with more amenities I'd go that route.

I've had it a year and no issues. Insulating was worth every penny.

Did you pour a slab? I’m thinking about doing the same for storing boat, atv, and tools as well. I have a gravel area that I was thinking about getting it installed on?

I have a 18x35 Carolina same as sea pickle,

I added electrical And shelves, stores my boat and other stuff. I plan on doing spray insulation.

With the slab, building and electrical I’m under 10k. For a budget building they are great

They are not aluminum.
They are very cheap and very cheaply put together but they do the trick. I have two at my house- 1 is a barn and the other is enclosed shop- and they work well enough.

I have a 20X30 on a slab for boat storage and tools. It's been fantastic so far.

Can any of you guys post a pic of what your shelves look like? I would like to add some as well, but I am trying to figure out the best way to do that.

You can kinda see the shelves i built, in adding one across the whole back to store cooking stuff and other random shite.

Wiring the building was easy as well. I still have to add my fans and get it sprayed

i did the same as this but instead of the support braces, i hung a chain from each of the roof ribs (about every 4ft) to support it. i wanted full walking access under the shelves so they are 7ft off the floor. dont have plans for anything super heavy so i just used double loop 250 lbs strength chain

Sea pickle, what did that cost you before and after insulation? I already have a 20x30 slab poured.

The building was roughly $8300. I have 11' walls and higher wind rating (140mph) than what is standard. I needed the higher walls for the 10T x 12W roll up door. Prices may be higher with the tariffs. All of the company prices are pretty much the same. Go online and use their price sheet. You can get exactly what it will cost per building size
Insulation was $3200 (About $1.83 per SF of coverage)but all other vendors were $2/2.20/SF

8300 was for building only. Slab was a separate charge
