Our Process

Working With The Old Order Amish

INTERNET & CELL PHONES NOT INCLUDED!

You won't see table saws, chop saws, or other electrically operated tools on the traditional Old Order Amish job site. These true craftsmen follow cultural traditions to build every Fred's Shed structure using chain saws, hammer and nails, and tools powered with gas sources.

So what does this mean for you?

Since we work directly with our local Old Order Amish team to build your custom structure, Fred cannot communicate your structure specs through the convenience of emails or phone calls. Once Fred finalizes your order, he personally drives the paperwork several miles to the builders so he can discuss your specs with them. Only then can they proceed to build your custom structure exactly as you've asked. Have changes? Yep, he'll drive back out again to communicate updates.

Your Process

Determine What Type Of Structure You Need

How Will Your Structure Be Used?

There are endless possibilities for your structure so be sure to think about your current and future needs. Perhaps you need a place to store your lawn and garden tools now, but later you'd like to convert your structure into a playhouse, studio, or work shop. Don't forget about your animals too!

Plan ahead and you'll be happy you did!

Size Matters!

Try to plan for any items you may need to add to your structure in the future. Somehow, we always seem to need more space than what we have!*

Also, think about whether you'd like to repurpose your structure later and what that might look like. Would it have a porch or loft space, for example? Adding such items now is easier and less expensive than adding them later.

*Note: Be sure to evaluate the space you have on your property and any obstacles that may be in the path of delivery. Permits, if required, are the responsibility of the customer.
