Thinking Outside of The Box: Creating Custom Solutions

Custom Structure

At Hometown Sheds, we are more than sheds – much more. One of our recent projects shows how much we can truly customize storage to meet the needs of your home or in this case, business.

Getting Started. Recently the contractors for Averett University located in Danville, Virginia reached out to our Hometown Sheds Danville location about a custom project that they needed completed. The college was installing a very large evaporative air conditioning unit outside of one of their primary buildings. The contractors needed a structure to keep it covered from the elements and to keep it secured over time. After several meetings with Steve, our Hometown Sheds Danville manager, a plan was put into place.

Bringing It to Life. Once the measurements were taken and plans discussed, the construction began. However, there were a few unique features that needed to be accommodated. First, due to the nature of the system, the covering needed to include an air gap at the top all the way around for ventilation. Second, the framework needed to be constructed so that wires could be run and properly installed around the back of the unit. During several parts of the project plans were adjusted and “tweaked” to accommodate the new system. The steel structure was truly customized to fit the project.

The Finished Project. From the initial meeting to final inspection, the new structure was designed, installed, and finished in around three months. Upon completion, the covering measured 14 x 31 x 20 on one section and around 14x50x10 on another. Our customers were pleased with the final outcome and the new air conditioning unit will stay covered, safe, and secure for many years to come.

When you think of Hometown Sheds, think outside of the box. Of course, we’re here for all of your storage sheds, garages, and buildings, but we’re happy to work with you for all of your custom projects, too. If you have a dream, Hometown Sheds can help you bring it to life. Give us a call today to discuss your next project!

Give The Gift of Play

If you’re watching TV or the mailbox, then you’re likely already seeing holiday ads and toy wish books heading in your home. Instead of another toy, gadget or electronics, many families are choosing to gift experiences and activities. That’s why the playsets from Hometown Sheds are the perfect fit for kids of all ages.

Slide, Climb and Swing Into Fun. As the kids run out the door Christmas morning, they’ll find years’ worth of entertainment. As you custom design your set you’ll be able to choose from slide options, forts, playhouses, tubes, monkey bars, sandboxes, picnic benches, towers, chutes and so much more. Add a fireman’s pole for little Johnnie or lemonade stand for Susie. We’ll even create a custom plaque to add your family’s name, finishing off your investment. This year invest in your kids and invest in outdoor play!

Not Your Average Playset. The playsets that you’ll find at Hometown Sheds are NOT the same quality, materials and construction that you’ll see at many of the big box stores. They are quality crafted, with made in the USA construction and vinyl wrapped treated wood. That means no staining EVER, no warping or rotting from the sun and rain and no exposed wood on any part of the set. Even the brackets are powder coated, preventing peeling and rusting over time. You’ll find stainless steel bolts throughout the construction, and each swing comes with two ground anchors to keep your little ones safe and sound. The ladders include non-slip steps and safety rails and rubber coated swing chains keep little fingers from being pinched.  Canvas tent roofs are a thing of the past. All of the sets at Hometown Sheds include wind resistant poly-lumber roofing.

Delivery & Installation. You have enough to do around the holiday season. Instead of staying up all night Christmas Eve, Hometown Sheds is happy to do the hard work for you. Once we set a delivery date and time, our installation professionals will completely install your new set right down the very last swing, slide and ladder. And did we mention that delivery is free in most areas?

Don’t blink, the holidays will be here and gone in a matter of weeks. We make the holidays simple with pay over time financing, delivery and set up. “Swing” by our Danville location or call us today to get started creating the playset of your family’s dreams.

The Battle of the Steels

When you’re considering a new building, carport or garage, every detail matters. That’s what we make sure to educate our customers on the difference in the types of steel available and how that affects your investment.

Galvalume® Versus Galvanized Steel.

First, it’s important to know your options and recognize that all steel sheds are not created equal.

Both Galvalume® and galvanized steel are coated with a layer of zinc to provide protection against corrosion. This coating creates a barrier between the steel and the outside environment. Zinc is resistant to corrosion which means that it helps prevent rust and other types of corrosion.

Galvalume® is s a type of steel that has been coated with a combination of aluminum and zinc, providing enhanced corrosion resistance. It is applied by using a coating of 55% aluminum, 43.5% zinc, and 1.5% silicon to the steel substrate. The steel is dipped in zinc through a hot dip process, prior to the baked enamel process. This process offers greater heat resistance for your building as well with its reflective properties, allowing the interior of your building to stay cooler.

You’ll often find Galvalume® in areas with extreme high and low temperatures and hurricane zones. It’s more durable than traditional steel lasting up to double the lifetime. Many builders and contractors often prefer it as well because Galvalume® has a unique appearance with a silver-like metallic finish. This is often preferred for architectural and roofing applications.

Details matter when you’re making an investment like a steel building, and so does the steel. The professionals at Hometown Sheds are here to answer any of your building questions. Call us or stop by today to see your options and get started creating the building of your dreams.

Built To Last

creating a building

We know that you have choices when it comes to where you purchase your shed or building. There are many companies and even now, several big box stores who advertise “Sheds For Sale”. So, what’s really the difference in the sheds at Hometown Sheds and other guys? To put it simply, our sheds are built to last.

Handcrafted With You In Mind. Unlike the cookie cutter sheds you’ll often see as you drive down the road, our sheds are custom created to our customer’s specifications. Each shed is handcrafted from the ground up with quality materials in our factory right down the road in Danville, Virginia. Our professionals discuss your needs, wants and wishes and we bring it to life, inch by inch, window by window and door by door. Whether your choose a model that’s on one of our lots or, you custom order your shed, you know with the Hometown Sheds name it will stand the test of time.

The Difference In The Details. As we discuss your many options available to you, you’ll likely hear us say “it’s all about the floors and the doors”. That’s because these are two components that are often created with cost cutting methods at our competitors lots. Our sheds are built locally using 3/4” tongue-in-groove floor decking and 2′ x 6′ floor joists for added support. There’s no need to worry about moisture either. Any part of the Hometown shed that will be in close proximity to the ground is pressure treated to prevent mold, mildew and rot. Our doors are steel framed to make sure there’s not sagging year after year. We even use engineered trusses, something you won’t find with many other companies – an important component considering these are the beams that hold up your roof.

Before you spend another day shopping around, stop by Hometown Sheds and let our local representatives show you the *real* difference and why ours sheds are built to last.

Limited Time Steel Discount

steel building discount

Just in time for the holidays, we are excited to announce a huge discount available on our steel buildings and structures. We want to help you wrap up that perfect holiday gift and through November 30th you can save big on our steel structures.

Reduced Surcharges. In recent years, as the cost of supplies has increased, additional surcharges have been added to many items in the building industry to cover these costs, including steel. If you’ve been researching buildings or building products you’re probably used to seeing these surcharges in the final price. However, for a limited time, through November 30th, we are reducing, and in some cases eliminating these surcharges on your purchase of steel buildings and structures. Any purchase under $10,000* has now been reduced to a 10% surcharge and for those over $10,000* the surcharge has been eliminated all together during this offer period.

Even More Discounts. In addition to reducing and possibly eliminating the normal surcharge on our steel buildings and structures, you can also take advantage of a not before seen discounted rate. Purchases $15,000 – $20,000* will be eligible for a 5% total discount, and those over $20,000 will receive a 10% total discount. That means thousands of dollars’ worth of savings just in time for the holiday season. Many of our buildings can be ordered and delivered in as little as 2-3 weeks as well so don’t delay, take advantage of these savings while you can.

There’s never been a better time to get the building you’ve been dreaming of or looking at all year. Reduced surcharges PLUS huge discounts means a win/win for you. But hurry, just like the Thanksgiving turkey, these savings will be gone by November 30th. Call us or stop in and talk to one of our trained professionals for more details and to get started.

*Pre-tax total. See sales representative for more details.

Santa’s Shopping at Hometown

We had a jolly old man with a fluffy white beard stop in the other day, and we’re pretty sure it was Santa! He had a long list, and was asking a lot of questions about…

Amish built quality playsets for business or home

Kids’ Playsets. Santa said that parents are really looking for screenless toys this year, wanting them to get outside, use their imagination, and stretch their large muscles. In other words, he wanted some gym sets! He loved all the options of slides, climbing bars, swings, picnic tables, towers, and bridges. He asked about accessible options, which we have. And then he wanted to know about safety. We showed him how the Amish built playsets come with vinyl wrapped wood to protect little fingers, but also to eliminate staining, rotting, and warping.

holiday shed

Grownup Gifts. Age isn’t a factor when it comes to believing, which is why Santa Claus has She Sheds and Man Caves on his list. We showed him what garages and carports to get to cover and protect all those grown up toys. He’s even got the perfect gift for work-a-holics – buildings that can be custom made for office and gym space.

Before he left, Santa asked about a custom building. It needed to be really big, rated for snow loads and wind zones, and have a heating package. We’re pretty sure it’s for his workshop. Smart guy, that Santa.

Take a page from Santa’s gook. Invest in storage and fun, and a happy Christmas this year, and many years to come. But hurry, many of our playsets and buildings take around 6-8 weeks to custom order, so call us today to ensure delivery and set up in time for Santa’s arrival!
