Three things to know before you buy

  • 1
    You'll need a level base. Gravel, slab or deck blocks — sized 12′5½″ × 9′1½″. Not included.
  • 2
    Roof boards are included; the top layer isn't. The 1/2:12 slope needs a membrane roof (EPDM, TPO/PVC or self-adhered 2-ply) or metal with every lap sealed — shingles and roll roofing are not rated this flat.*
  • 3
    It arrives as sanded, kiln-dried, untreated spruce. Bare wood has no weather protection, so stain or paint it within the first few weeks — you pick the color. See our Paint and Stain Guide.

* Lay a plywood layer under a stick-down product and seal every lap on screw-down metal. See our roofing guide.

In the box — and not

One pallet. Almost everything.

Every wood part is pre-cut to size. Three things are deliberately left to you, because climate and taste vary too much to ship one answer.

Included in the kit

  • Double tongue-&-groove wall panelsSustainably harvested Norway spruce, untreated
  • Roof boards, floor kit & joistsT&G spruce floor on pressure-treated joists
  • Glass double door, lock & keys4′3″ × 6′
  • 3 picture windows2′5″ × 1′6½″ each, double-pane.
  • All hardware, manual & blueprintPlus the full video library — build in 1–2 days

You'll add — and roughly what it costs

  • Foundation DIY $250–700 · pro slab $1,200–2,500Level, well-drained, 12′5½″ × 9′1½″. Built before the pallet arrives — size it in the foundation calculator.
  • Roofing material $280–840The 1/2:12 slope needs a membrane roof (EPDM, TPO/PVC or self-adhered 2-ply) or metal with every lap sealed — shingles and roll roofing are not rated this flat.*
  • Stain or paint $100–3001–2 gallons outside, about a gallon inside, and a quart for trims and floors. Try the colors on the 3D model before you buy a can. Which finish for your climate: Paint and Stain Guide.

* Lay a plywood layer under a stick-down product and seal every lap on screw-down metal. See our roofing guide.

Typical owner-built total: the kit price plus foundation, roofing and stain. Hiring out the base and the build adds roughly $2,700–$5,500.

From our warehouse to your curb

Your shed, step by step.

Step 1

Order — on your schedule

Order now, receive it later: tell us when you want delivery and we'll hold the kit until then. Free shipping to the lower 48.

Step 2

Arrives in 1–3 weeks

One flat-packed pallet, about 1,850 lbs, every board pre-cut to size.

Step 3

Curbside delivery

The carrier will arrange a delivery window with you. The pallet is too large for a liftgate, so for standard delivery, plan to have two people available to unload it by hand. It usually takes about an hour. Driver-assisted unloading and expedited delivery are available for an additional fee.

Step 4

Build it — 1–2 days

Check the pallet against the packing list in the first 30 days — anything damaged or missing ships free. Boards interlock tongue-and-groove; no framing skills needed. Manual, blueprint and video library included.

Tight street, steep drive, or an island address? Get in touch before ordering — we'll check the route with the carrier so there are no surprises on the day.

Great product and shipping rate

“The quality of the product is excellent and they don’t charge a shipping fee which is remarkable considering it arrives on a truck. Takes some work to assemble but it’s worth it to have a beautiful shed.”

Absolutely the best communication ever

“Absolutely the best communication ever. Igna at SolidBuildWood is nothing short of amazing. She has answered lots of questions in easy to follow detail. This gave me lots of confidence to buy from SolidBuildWood. After comparing several similar products, it was obvious that SolidBuildWood has the best offering. Also, communication was perfect, much appreciated.”

The best shed on the market

“After extensive research, I chose this modern cabin. My top priority was the ease of building and design. There are a lot of "wooden" sheds on the market that are post and beam with plywood and they all look rustic and generic. This little modern shed is really well made, was extremely easy to put together (customer support rep helped to sort some things out very promptly), and it looks really really good. I am using my shed for storing tools and yard equipment, the roof extension is perfect for wood storage. I ran electricity from the house, so can do some work in there too. Would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a good quality wooden shed, and not a cheap looking plywood crap that costs no less than this one! ”

Common questions

Frequently asked questions.

At 80 sq ft, Solana may not require a building permit in some locations, but requirements vary. Check with your local building department before you build. Every kit includes a blueprint you can provide if requested.
A level, well-drained base sized 12′5½″ × 9′1½″, flat within ¼″. A compacted gravel pad, deck blocks or a lumber frame all work; a concrete slab is the premium route but is not required. A simple DIY base usually takes an afternoon and costs around $250–$700 in materials. The foundation calculator gives you the shopping list and cut list.
The 1/2:12 slope needs a membrane roof (EPDM, TPO/PVC or self-adhered 2-ply) or metal with every lap sealed — shingles and roll roofing are not rated this flat. Budget $280–840 for 153 sq ft of roof area. Roof boards themselves are included in the kit. Lay a plywood layer under a stick-down product and seal every lap on screw-down metal. See our roofing guide.
Plan on about 1–2 days with basic tools — hammer, drill, level, ladder. The wall boards interlock tongue-and-groove, so no framing skills are needed. Manual, blueprint and video library are included, and our support line answers mid-build questions. A local handyman or an assembler would be one to hire.
Yes. The roof can be insulated above the tongue-and-groove boards, under the roofing layer, and the floor between the joists. The solid-wood walls are designed to expand and contract naturally, so they shouldn't be insulated like conventional framed walls. Depending on your climate, add a heater or mini-split for year-round use.
Yes. Power and lighting can be added using surface-mounted conduit, keeping the solid-wood walls intact and the wiring accessible. Plan the electrical route before the build, and use a licensed electrician for the installation. Electrical permit requirements vary by location, so check with your local building department.
Free curbside freight to the lower 48. One flat-packed pallet of about 1,850 lbs arrives 1–3 weeks after ordering. The carrier will arrange a delivery window with you. The pallet is too large for a liftgate, so for standard delivery, plan to have two people available to unload it by hand. It usually takes about an hour. Driver-assisted unloading and expedited delivery are available for an additional fee.
Solana includes three small picture windows. During assembly, the window trio can be positioned using the factory-verified layouts shown above. The double doors stay in their designed position.
Let us know within 30 days of delivery and we'll take care of it. Missing or damaged parts are replaced free of charge. Reach out or call 1-800-590-2508 ext. 1 and we'll help get it sorted. The 1-year limited warranty covers manufacturing and workmanship defects.
