Three things to know before you buy

  • 1
    Plan a level base. A gravel pad, slab or deck blocks sized 9′1½″ × 9′1½″ — the foundation is not part of the kit.
  • 2
    The roof boards come with it; the roofing layer does not. The 4:12 pitch takes shingles, metal or PVC — match the house.*
  • 3
    Protect the wood in the first weeks. The spruce arrives sanded, kiln-dried and untreated — stain or paint it soon after the build, in the color you pick. See our Paint and Stain Guide.

* Right at the 4:12 line: shingles go on with the standard single felt layer; an ice-and-water shield underneath gives the best protection. See our roofing guide.

Common questions

Before you order.

Yes — free curbside freight to the lower 48 states. The kit ships flat-packed on one pallet of about 1,825 lbs. The carrier will arrange a delivery window with you; the delivery line above the price is the current estimate. 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.
At 80 sq ft, Whales 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 9′1½″ × 9′1½″, flat within ¼″. A compacted gravel pad, deck blocks or a lumber frame all work; a concrete slab is the premium route, not a requirement. A simple DIY base usually takes an afternoon and costs around $250–$700 in materials. The foundation calculator gives the shopping list and cut list.
The 4:12 pitch takes shingles, metal or PVC — match the house. Budget $250–910 for 138 sq ft of roof area. The roof boards themselves are in the kit. Right at the 4:12 line: shingles go on with the standard single felt layer; an ice-and-water shield underneath gives the best protection. 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. The manual, the blueprint and the video library come with the kit, and our support line answers mid-build questions. A local handyman or an assembler would be one to hire.
The included French doors and a single front window can be swapped places, and the double side window can be placed on the right or the left wall during assembly. If you want additional windows elsewhere, the add-on double window ($495) offers flexible placement and can be installed during assembly or added later. The layouts are pictured on the Whales model page.
Yes — the Whales model page has the paint studio (a 3D model you can stain or paint on screen), a true-size AR preview for your phone, the layout options and the size drawings. It is the same kit.
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.
