Will a building fit through my backyard gate?

Send us a photo and a gate measurement before you order. Our buildings arrive finished, so the access opening — not the yard — is usually the limiting dimension.

Is delivery to Ann Arbor free?

Ann Arbor is inside our 50-mile delivery area, so delivery is included in the building price for a standard, site-accessible drop. If your site needs special equipment or a crane, we'll tell you what that costs before you order.

What kinds of buildings do Ann Arbor customers usually buy?

Studio backyard offices and studios are disproportionately popular here, along with garden and Gable storage sheds sized to clear a gate. Larger parcels toward Scio, Dexter and Pittsfield also support garages and lofted buildings.

Can buildings be customized?

Yes. Size, siding and roof color, door style, windows, lofts, ramps, shelving, insulation and wiring-ready framing are all selectable. Every building is made to order unless you're buying one already finished on the lot.

Can I visit the lot before buying?

Yes, and most Ann Arbor customers do. The Clinton lot is about 35 minutes away and has finished buildings you can walk through. Call (517) 514-8205 first so we have current pricing and availability ready.

Which communities around Ann Arbor do you serve?

We deliver throughout Washtenaw County, including Ypsilanti, Saline, Dexter, Pittsfield Township and Scio Township, plus nearby Chelsea and Manchester.

Do I need a permit for a shed in Ann Arbor?

It depends on the size of the building and your specific address, and city rules differ from surrounding townships. Check with City of Ann Arbor Planning & Development or your township before ordering — we can build to a size that keeps your project simple once you know the threshold.

What we see on Ann Arbor properties

In the older neighborhoods near campus and on the west side, the constraint is almost always access and setbacks rather than budget. Getting a finished building into a fenced backyard takes planning, and sometimes it means choosing a size that clears a gate rather than the size someone first imagined.

Studio buildings are disproportionately popular here — insulated, wired-ready, with real windows and a house-like door — because remote work never fully receded in Ann Arbor.

Ann Arbor is roughly 35 minutes from our Clinton lot, inside the 50-mile included-delivery radius. We deliver throughout the city and Washtenaw County; we do not keep a lot or inventory in Ann Arbor.

How delivery to Ann Arbor works

Ann Arbor sits inside our 50-mile delivery area, so delivery is included in the price of your building on a standard, site-accessible drop — about 25 miles from the lot, about 35 minutes.

1
Your building is finished before it leaves Clinton and arrives on a purpose-built trailer, then gets set with a shed mule or winched into position. Most standard Ann Arbor deliveries are done on site in under an hour.
2
The limiting dimension in Ann Arbor is almost never the yard — it's the opening into it. Measure your gate, side-yard pinch point or driveway width before you settle on a size, and send us a photo of the approach along with it.
3
Mature tree canopy and overhead service drops are common in the older neighborhoods, so we ask about height clearance along the route as well as at the pad.
4
If access truly won't allow a finished building, say so early — we'd rather redesign the size with you than discover it on delivery day.

Permits and setbacks in Ann Arbor

We build and deliver buildings — we don’t issue permits, and the rules change by address, parcel and building size. Rather than guess on your behalf, here’s what generally matters and who can give you a real answer.

Most jurisdictions have a size threshold under which no permit is needed — ask before you assume you need one, or that you don't.
Setbacks are measured from your property line, not from the fence, hedge or driveway edge.
If you're in an HOA or a platted subdivision, that approval is separate from the city or township's.
Call 811 before anything gets dug or anchored. It's free, and it's the one call we never want skipped.
