What to do before my Shed arrives?

Become familiar with this assembly manual and determine if you can•

complete the project yourself or will require a professional contractor.

Clear the construcon area and ensure a clear pathway for delivery when•

the freight company arrives. Remove all debris: roots, grass, rocks, etc.

Excavate the site. Contact your local ulies company to ensure there are•

no gas or electric lines buried in the area before digging.

Decide on the type of foundaon you will be using:•

 Concrete slab, or

 46 inches of crushed gravel with paver stones or 4x4 stringers.

You can ﬁnd the footprint for your shed on Page 3 of your Assembly Manual.

If doing the assembly yourself, have all the necessary tools ready to go and in•

working condion. A list of required tools can be found aer the parts list.

One helper is recommended to assist in construcng your shed.•

It generally takes two people over two days to assemble a shed. If you’re

hiring a contractor, their rate should be in line with that duraon of work.

Regular Maintenance & Tips to prolong the life of your shed.

Before/During Assembly:

1.) Paint each face and edge of your plywood floor with a latex exterior paint.

2.) Caulk wall seams if gaps appear.

3.) Caulk around window framing.

4.) Caulk perimeter between floor plywood and bottom wall plate.

5.) Caulk channels in lap siding at the top of your door above the trim, just a drop in each channel.

6.) Caulk edge of door threshold.

7.) Optional: Install a Sill Gasket between floor runners and foundation.

8.) Optional: Install an 8” strip of roofing paper below Cedar Ridge Caps for Cedar Roof Sheds.

Routine Maintenance:

- Routinely check all fasteners are tight (ex. Door Hinges, Nails)

- Brush off dirt from walls.

- Brush off snow from roof regularly.

- Routinely remove needles and leaves from roof.

Painting/Staining

- Your cedar shed, if left untreated, will weather to a silvery grey colour.

- Painting or staining your structure is highly recommended and will prolong the life of your shed.

- You do not need to wait to paint or stain your shed, the wood in your kit has been dried and can be

—stained or painted immediately.

- Consult your local paint store for the best paint or stain for cedar.

- Optional: stain the inside of your shed. (Note: this will remove the fresh cedar smell.)
