The Shed Installer Guys

Let me start off by saying thanks to Matt for an amazing job!! Less than 4hrs in total and Matt was able to squeeze me into his busy schedule (where he arrived on time!).

Matt truly is an expert on shed building. I bought this Lifetime shed on sale at Costco and with that purchase, I took the option to have the wooden foundation build by Costco's installation services. What a big mistake! Although Matt's price was ~$500 more to build the wooden base, I initially thought a base is a simple thing and went with Costco's cheaper option. Well, you get what you pay for (and worse!). The wooden foundation although it looked fine, once Matt commenced with the shed build you could see right away that the foundation was not perfectly level (not even close!) and although Matt had to perform a miracle to complete the shed build, Costco will need to return and try to do what they can to shim and fix the unlevel areas. Bottom line - if you are planning to build a shed, go all the way with Matt to let him look after the foundation as well. May cost a bit more but quality and materials will be far superior and he will then guarantee the finished product is build as you would expect with less time wasted. Who can disagree that time in the end if money saved...

I would highly recommend Matt as I believe he would be one (if not) the best out there doing this type of work. Don't take up using the installation services from Costco, Home Depot, Rona or Lowes as in the end, all they do is subcontract the work out at a premium to someone who probably doesn't have the same experience. Also, don't believe the contractor if he tells you that the shed has issues or manufacture defects. Although this is a possibility, I would say 99% of the time why shed doors don't close or have issues is because of the shed builder or the foundation not being built perfectly level. Through the process of seeing Matt build this shed, I now understand why you need to leave these kinds of jobs to the real experts here. Take my suggestion as I have learnt from my mistake here...
