🤔So you have the lofts on each side but you got like one inch of clearance for headroom walking under there ,
What brand are these sheds? How do you order?
These are Premier Portable Buildings. Great sheds. What state you located in?
we are in such an economic crisis that people are getting sheds repossessed. 😢
seems good for short people but you barely missing the rafters
I need one
lol
Rumor is they are beginning to liquidate them. No amount of illegals can absorb all the financial failures from clueless American consumers. Abundance ahead?
Roof ventilation isn’t dependent only on insulation type. You still need to vent roofs in most regions. How are you venting the roof with spray foam?
Vow! It looks very cool.
Thank you so much! It is pretty cool I must admit :)
How tall are the sidewalls? It looked like you had to duck when walking under the loft area. If not 7', you will have trouble putting doors anywhere under there, like bathroom doors.
They are a little below 7’. You bring up a great point! That’s the wonderful thing about going small. It allows for creativity, problem solving, and hard work. With those three things, anything is possible. If someone is not up for those three though, doing a shed to house may not be the right step for them.
Another con of spray foam is that its gonna be really difficult to remove. Difficult to track down roof leaks.
Thanks for the additional information!
Keep in mind that you'll need to move it whole 😮😮😮
The good news is this price included delivery and set up! That is one question to ask the shed company, so thanks for the comment. “Does this price include set up and delivery?”
i refuse to use fiberglass insulation on anythig... it burns , gets destroyed by water, and pest destroy it and make beds... complete worthless...spray foam is good but i suggest you hire it out.the only insulation i will use is rockwall , its fire resistant , water resistant and rodent resistant, mice hate it cause its made from lava rock. will not fail through the years and does a great job insulating and sound deadening...
Thanks for the additional tips!
Insulate the house on the outside and keep it painted. You will never have that problem.
Your frame doesn't even remotely have enough space fro insulation in my area.The vault obvious no snow load, super weak design.cellose is a number on in the R 50 60 range.
What do you think about using 2-3 inches of closed cell spray foam on my ceiling and adding Rockwool under the closed cell spray foam on my ceiling for extra/added insulation???
That is a good question. I have not heard of this method yet, so I wouldn't be able to answer that. I'm sorry. Hopefully someone on this channel will see this comment and be able to provide you with some advice.
Just use the foam at 3 inches and youll be good to go
Where did you purchase this from?
There is a local shed company here in Texas that I bought it from!
Thats crazy cheap. Thats over 200ft² in those lofts ❤
Agreed! It’s quite a bit.
Critter proof your shed, cabin, or home with reflectix across the floor joists and up the walls about two feet, unless it’s a mobile home then go up all the way.
Thanks for the tip!
@@UrbanToAcresHi! I'm thinking about putting reflexive in my garage from the bottom frame to the top of frame then drywall over that to have my garage fully insulated. No foam spray, no batting, just the radiant barrier. I live in Phoenix, Arizona. Have you any experience or knowledge of this is a good idea? Why or why not please.
@@jonesy5722 Thanks for reaching out. Unfortunately, I don't have any experience using what you are referring to, nor the climate area. I'm sorry. Hopefully someone will see this on this channel and be able to help you. Best wishes!
The diagonal beams are strictly reinforcement for the moving process.
Yes that’s correct!
And the 4 x 8 sheets
Yeah I would live in it.
if you look for options, usually you'll discover good deals
Thanks for sharing!
I am hoping to do this in a about 2 years
Awesome! We will be cheering you on!
Maybe enclose entry into mud room
That’s actually a great thought! Thanks for the post.
So the big question is, which one are you going with? Ours gets delivered next week! I think we are going with the closed cell spray foam
Woohoo! Congratulations! I will be doing closed cell spray foam on my ceiling for sure. I am still debating whether fiber glass or spray foam in walls. Send pics! We’d love to see updates!
@@UrbanToAcres We are doing it on the ceiling and underneath for sure. We will mostly go with the cheaper option for the walls. I have enjoyed all your helpful tips!
@ that sounds like a plan! Thanks for the kind words!
@@UrbanToAcresyou could also cut and glue foam boards to fit into your stud cavities.
@@UrbanToAcres if you are in a country area prone to rodents that could be another insulation consideration. (Rockwool has virtues in that regard.)
You lost me at putting stackable washer/dryer on front porch. Why would you block that window??? Not to mention how tacky that makes the curb appeal….🤷🏼♀️
I’m glad you feel the freedom to share your opinion here. That’s what this channel is all about. Balancing aesthetics and function is always the challenge in small spaces.😊
I would imagine they would be enclosed rather than sitting out in the open. It would just look like a storage area w/ a door.
@@kathyleighton9091 Yes! That would be the idea.
I went to your page to see if you had all of these (with this specific shed) in a folder so they could easily be gone through. However, I don't see that. I just see them all over the place. So, can you at least rename the titles slightly? Just put "#1" and "#2", #3, etc. at the beginning of the title so we can watch them in proper order. Thank you.
Lol think
Hi, your video is so nice but you need video SEO for increase more views and like . I am a SEO expert if you need contact me.
You can get them Built On Site if you are unable to Maneuver one into Place. You can also get them Custom Built so you can get True 8ft Tall Walls inside.
Thanks for sharing! Very good information.
@@UrbanToAcres Just got done talking to two in town. They even say if payments are only 350, That If I make them 500, a 15,000 Shed will still cost Around 23,000 by the time it's Paid Off because they Only Accept CASH or Rent To Own.. and Smarter to PAY CASH! One willing to Build On Site, the Other Not.
Companies HATE it when you talk about how to save SAVE 1/2 -3/4 of the Price by paying the CASH Price All at One Time and NOT Make Payments on the Rent to Own ones.. EXAMPLE ONLY! A 15,000 Shed If You PAY CASH is 16,050 After Tax.. If you are Dumb Enough to make Payments, If Costs AROUND 28,000 and 34,000 ... Check For Yourselves, Look at the Rent To Own Payments Per Month and do the Math Yourselves.. I Get Blocked and Comments Removed when I Post this on Listings, and even here on the Tube they get removed. This one just might also.. So PAY CASH! Plus You can NOT Do Anything To Them Until they are Paid Off. Because if you stick money into them and it gets Repo'ed, You Loose All that money you stuck into it.
the shed isnt worth $8000
In my area they are $7,000-12,000. I have been looking for a year.
I love that you actually reply to your audience. So, let’s say I want to buy a shed. How do I go about finding someone to turn it into a livable tiny house? My friend is looking for me a piece of land.
You’re welcome! Great question. I have found that people find success in getting someone to help them finish out their shed through personal friendships, Facebook marketplace, Angie’s List, and the like. I would start with personal friendships that may know people, then Angie’s list, then FB marketplace. Hope that helps.
I got a 16x40 Derksen repo that had been built out with electric, loft bedroom, bath, washer dryer hookup, hot water heater, window unit, and electric panel for $12,750. This included delivery and setup as well as repairs for bent shingles.
What a fantastic deal! Repos can be the way to go for sure. Thanks for sharing.
But u gotta have the 12,340 to buy it upfront not everyone can j wish I could
@SHARONKEEF_FkR_justice4john Derksen offered financing.
I got this set 2 years ago for 399 hd still in use today same 5ah batteries doing home remodeling work extent tools for around the home no commercial no commercial i use fuel commercial and they are not much more in cost goodnluck
❤
😊
Couple of questions: 1. Those 4 diagonal beams seem like they might be a structural necessity. Be curious how you design around that and make it livable. 2. I’d be curious if it was possible to double your square footage by putting these side by side and using most if not all to re-design the roofline to make for more loft space. Seems like you could get a taller loft space and create a good sized Master bedroom and and one or two small loft rooms on the other side with waist height closets on the sides… If that were possible this would be a huge winner for me as a more then tiny less then normal sized home…. With good storage and livability
Leonard's tried to charge me 16 grand for a 10× 12. Needless to say, I called them to pick bit up after paying 5 grand. That was 4 months ago. It's still sitting empty in my backyard.
Oh goodness. I’m sorry that happened to you.
you can go to the magistrate. t costs like $300 to file but don't let them get away with wrecking your credit.
Wow nice building. It would be great to have a washer dryer for the people renting it from you. Great idea. ❤
Thank you so much! Agreed!
Great video!
Thank you so much!
Not a Black Friday deal. It's an everyday deal...
Even better for our viewers that is an everyday deal now! Awesome!
I just got a repo'd shed at 20% discount. I got a 10x16 + loft for $3000.
@@chyldstudios Nice! That’s great to hear!
Where? Repos in North Fl that size are double that.
Thank you
Where did you buy it? Congratulations 👏 💣 💯 🎊 💐 🥳 🤑
Thank you! A shed company in Texas!
Just upped the price its not worth 8gs
The price for material on that shed is about 3800. Labor about 2 grand. You are correct! They still made money.
Sticks n osb.Even 3800 too much for that.I bought a 1 year old $15k 34 foot car hauler for $2250 at auction.Yes I just pinched myself lol
Me too
Thank you so much!
Za basement sealing seal
Other than the high torque all of these products are brushed and at least 3 generations old ...u might have overpaid bud
Love the vid! Milwaukee is great
@@HeritageRC thank you! Agreed
Funny. I just bought the exact same kit. Great deal
Very cool! Agreed…great deal!
