Sheds, storage buildings and waste shelters
A shed or waste shelter is a small building, but you see it every day. We build them properly: the right footings, a durable frame and cladding that suits the house. For housing companies we build waste shelters and bike stores.
Slatted-timber waste shelters have been popular with housing companies: they ventilate, look good and take daily use. We size the shelter by the number of bins and the emptying route.
For a garden shed it pays to plan electrics, lighting and shelving at the same time so it serves for years.
Common questions
Does a shed need a permit?
It depends on size and municipality. In Helsinki small outbuildings often need at least a notification.
How quickly is a shed finished?
A small shed usually takes a few days once the foundation is in.
Can a waste shelter be sized for specific bins?
Yes. We size it by the number of bins and the emptying route.
Can a shed have electricity?
Yes, done by our electrical partner.
What cladding can I choose?
Slatted or board cladding, for example. We match the look to the house.
General questions
How much will it cost?
It always depends on the job, so we do not quote blind. We come and look and give you a quote. Asking for a quote does not commit you to anything.
Who makes the decisions?
You do. We explain the options and give recommendations from long experience, but the final choices are always yours.
Does the household tax deduction apply?
For private individuals, usually on the labour share when the work is done in your own home or holiday home.
Where do you work?
Helsinki, Espoo, Vantaa, Kauniainen, Kirkkonummi and Sipoo. For larger jobs, elsewhere in Uusimaa too.
Can I deal with you in English?
Yes. Jason and the crew work in English.
Are your contractor’s obligations in order?
Yes. We are a Tilaajavastuu.fi Luotettava Kumppani, so tax, pension insurance and other records are verifiable.
