The Solid Start Your Shed Needs

Every long-lasting shed begins with an solid foundation and expertly crafted frame. At DG Custom Builders, we specialize in providing the essential structural elements that ensure your shed will stand the test of time, resisting settling, shifting, and moisture damage. As your dedicated Yorkville shed builder, we take immense pride in our precision work, laying the groundwork for a successful and lasting project. Don’t compromise on the most critical phase of shed construction—trust our experienced team to deliver structural integrity.

Our Shed Foundation & Framing Process

Building a sturdy shed involves much more than just pouring concrete; it is critical to assess what will work best for your shed and your property. Our shed foundation and framing process is carefully planned and executed to your needs.

First, we conduct a detailed site assessment, determining the best foundation type for your specific soil conditions and shed size.
Next, we prepare the site, ensuring proper grading and drainage. We then pour your chosen foundation—whether it’s a concrete slab, concrete footings, or a pressure-treated skid foundation—always adhering strictly to local codes.
Finally, we move to the shed framing, precisely cutting and assembling the walls, roof, and floor joists to create a sturdy shed skeleton ready for the exterior finish.

Shed Foundation & Framing Options

We understand that different sheds have different requirements. Our custom options for your shed foundation and framing ensure your structure is perfectly matched to its intended use.

Foundation Choices:
You can select from various foundation types: a concrete slab foundation offers maximum durability and a perfect floor for heavy equipment or a workshop; concrete block footings provide excellent ventilation and are ideal for sloped terrain; or a skid foundation (pressure-treated runners) offers portability for smaller sheds.
Flooring & Load Capacity:
If you plan on storing vehicles or heavy machinery, we will customize the floor joist spacing and framing to handle the exact load you need.
Framing Customization:
Beyond the standard structure, we offer specialized framing for features like lofts, multiple windows, unique door placements, or additional load-bearing walls required for heavier shelving and storage.
