SquareShed was excellent to work with from start to finish. Excellent communication and very professional. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking to have a storage shed built.

Huge thank you to SquareShed for coming on a very short notice and building the perfect storage shed for us! If you’re looking for a shed look no further because you won’t find another with this quality.

Beau was fabulous and professional. Shed exceeds our expectations. Build was one day only! He asked all the questions to ensure we were aware and on board with all aspects Look, size, windows, placements, avoidance of lawn sprinklers, height, trees surrounding, everything was taken into thoughtful consideration. 10/10 recom.

I highly recommend SquareShed. Doing business with them was easy and seamless, just a few emails, a video call and my new shed appeared as if by magic in one day. The shed isn't just a place to store my bikes, but a beautiful addition to my garden. If I ever need another shed, SquareShed will definitely be the folks I call.

Beau did an outstanding job building my shed on site. Despite the challenge of working in a fenced-in yard, they completed the project quickly and efficiently, all in just one day! They were extremely transparent and honest throughout the entire process, making it a stress free experience. Their pricing is very reasonable, and they’re incredibly easy to work with. If you need a shed built, don’t hesitate and hire Square Shed! Highly recommend!

Wow! Had a 10x12 installed today and could not be happier! Every step of the way, from quoting to install, was handled quickly and professionally. Beau stayed in constant contact during the quoting and scheduling phase, answering all of our questions and concerns. The install team took less than a full day to complete the work and left the site cleaner than they found it. Would highly recommend this company to anyone needing a shed built on their property. Will use again.

Working with Beau at Square Shed was an absolute joy. Easy to work with along the way. Everyone was punctual, polite and the finished product exceeded my expectations. If you’re considering purchasing a shed I highly recommend contacting Square Shed for an estimate. You won’t be disappointed. Thank you, Beau!

My husband and I both agree this little "she" shed has exceeded our expectations. Beau was so nice to work with did such a great job. Now my only problem is keeping it as a "she" shed and not a "he" shed.

Square Shed built exactly what I wanted. Great communication via text and email explaining the process and the different sheds that were available. I went back and forth with the design of my build and they sent over several detailed drawings until I decided on what I wanted. My shed had to be built on a slab and they accommodated my needs and deducted a fair amount for the wood flooring. The build only took 2 days onsite and the guys were great to work with and very polite. I highly recommend Square Shed for a great shed with a great price. Rick G

The young man was very kind and respectful. We had seen a finished shed he had done for our SIL and was impressed with the quality of his work. He told us when to expect the delivery of the wood and it was on time. He showed up when he said he would. He worked hard all day and it showed in the quality of his work. The finished shed was awesome and definitely 100% better than if we had tried to do it. His price was very reasonable and he could have definitely charged more because the quality was exceptional. I would recommend him to anyone who wants a quality shed built.

My husband and I are exceptionally pleased with our new shed. Square Shed went out of their way to give us exactly what we wanted. The builders were nice and went out of their way to make sure we got what we wanted! We are very proud of Square Shed's honesty and willing to please it's customers We would recommend The Square Shed Company to anyone who is looking for the best of the best!!! Sincerely, James and Judy Campbell

I couldn’t be happier with my new shed! The team came out and built everything right on site — quick, professional, and super polite. They also cleaned up everything before they left. The craftsmanship is excellent — solid construction, level foundation, and all the trim work looks great. You can tell they take pride in their work. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a sturdy, well-built shed!

Levi, Jordan and Landon did a fantastic job. They had to deal with the cold and rain in the beginning and with heat and humidity during most of the day. Very friendly and listened to what and where we wanted the shed. We really appreciate what they did, all in one day!!! Would recommend Square Shed to everyone!!

6 months ago Beau and his team built an 18x24 shed in our backyard to be half “man-cave” and half garage. I can’t say enough great things about Beau and his team. From helping tear down the existing structure, to making changes on the fly, it turned out amazing. Would highly recommend using SquareShed vs the pre-built options around the Carolinas. Wish I had more room to build another one!

Beau and his his crew were great to work with! Beau was very responsive and had great communication. The crew showed up on time and worked thru the rain. The guys were very friendly and asked my preferences on a couple of unexpected changes that had to be made. Definitely recommended Square Shed and will use them again!!

We are very happy with our new shed. It was made to the exact specs that were discussed and quoted, no surprises!! The workmanship was top notch . All walls, floor, and roof are plumb and square. All workers were very courteous, professional , and hard working. They took less than one day to complete the build. All wrappings, trash, and left over material was picked up and taken away. We would not hesitate to recommend Square Shed.

I'm super happy with my new shed! There was transparency throughout the decision making process followed up with excellent communication. When it came time to build the shed, SquareShed showed up on time and built exactly what I wanted. My 8x12 was built all in one day! I had an excellent experience and would recommend SquareShed to anyone.

Gus S.

Beau was great to work with from the initial request through the build process. Built exactly what I wanted and didnt try to up sell to anything I didnt need. The shed was built in one day (7 hours) and is affordable, quality designed, and constructed. Would 100% recommend to anyone needing a shed built. (Note: I added the ramp myself after the shed was built, no doubt a ramp built by Square Shed would have been much better quality and style).

I highly recommend SquareShed. Beau was consistently attentive to my emails and calls, offering the best options for my needs. The crew was amazing—respectful, professional, and efficient. They delivered the materials one day, and by the next, our shed was built! No hidden costs, just top-quality work.

Mary L.

Crew showed up on a timely basis and was very personable . They answered any questions that I had. This was a high quality build and construction took less than one day. Would highly recommend SquareShed to anyone looking to add a shed to their property.

Beau and his team were extremely knowledgeable, friendly and patient with our somewhat complicated build. Their attention to detail was second to none, and this is high praise coming from a very picky and detailed oriented client! I would highly recommend and wouldn’t hesitate to use their services again for future projects!

If you’re sitting on the fence whether or not to buy a shed from Beau at Squareshed let me put your mind at ease. Beau and his team are true professionals. They showed up when they said they would and finished the project exactly when they said they would. They made the design, planning, and constructing of the project as easy as it possibly could be. The proof is in the pudding as they like to say. Just look at the photos. I can’t believe they got all this done in just one day.

This is a 12 X 12 with tall walls. This was a great experience and working with Beau was great! He was professional and worked with me to ensure I was getting exactly what I needed in the size as well as how to place the shed in my yard. Our only hiccup was the weather and we could not control that. LOL! Beau and his team completed it on one day. Thanks Beau for a job well done.

Beau was great to work with! Very communicative, built us a great product, kept a tidy work area and was altogether pleasant. Glad he was able to get us a shed built quickly and that we were able to give him the business. 10/10 would recommend.

Andi B.

The shed SquareShed built for me is perfect! Beau is great at communicating throughout the process, which I really appreciated. More importantly though, he built a sturdy, high-quality shed with close attention to detail at a very reasonable cost. Plus, he did it all in one day! I hope he expands his business and adds decks or stairs to his offerings. I'd be very happy to his business again.

Just a note to say I would have this company build again and again for me. I was notified if any changes always on time and workmanship was excellent. If you need a shed built on site the only way to go. Thank you so much. Sharon n

Beau stood behind everything he promised. He worked hard to get us what we wanted. We went to work Thursday morning and return home to a beautiful well built shed. I can't thank them enough. If you need a shed SquareShed is the way to go 💯

I highly recommend SquareShed. Beau always responded quickly to my questions, the demolition and build were scheduled promptly, everyone was punctual and professional, and the site was thoroughly cleaned up. They re-used my existing ramp to lower the cost a little, and I appreciate that. The new shed looks great. I'm very happy with the shed and with SquareShed.

Andrew E.

I highly recommend these guys! They built me a 12x16 shed that I'll be using for a woodworking shop in my backyard. Even upgrading to 8' sidewalls, they were a better price than the prebuilt shed I was originally going to get. All around great experience, and I'm really happy with the build quality.

The process of working with Square Shed was professional, efficient and highly recommended. There was no impact to my property and it was amazing to see how they created a semi-prefabricated building and installation process with such great results.

SquareShed is excellent company with amazing integrity. Five star for many reasons: timely communication, custom design, quality materials, professional and yet customer friendly. Our shed turned out better than expected and is a great addition to our yard. You will not be disappointed! Contact them today to get started!

Beau and his crew arrived on time and completed the 10x16 shed in a total of 6 hours. Quality build and materials. The best part is that I didn't have to do anything myself. They even got the foundation ready.

Beau and his team were phenomenal to work with while I was looking to tear down my current shed and build a brand new one. From phone call #1, Beau was attentive, asked the right questions and listened to what I needed. He was extremely responsive during the entire process and shared plenty of details and photos on their build technique so I knew what I was signing up for. They were very knowledgeable about building sheds, even on uneven spaces (mine was partially on the flat ground and partially on a concrete slab). Compared to other shed companies in Charlotte, they are the most cost effective for their services and products. 10/10 would recommend to anyone that is looking for a reliable, high-quality company. I love my new shed!

I received outstanding customer service from Beau with SquareShed Charlotte. The quality of the construction of the shed is outstanding, and I am extremely pleased with the quality of the shed. I highly recommend SquareShed Charlotte.
