rmaynard 15,428 #28 Posted November 7, 2020 I'd recommend a nice pole building like mine, but since I signed the contract last November (2019), the price of lumber around here has more than doubled. I don't think steel has gone up as much, so a building like @Zeek has might be less expensive. In any case, my $169.00 "garage-in-box" has served me well since it went up in 2015, but after a couple of wind storms with branches poking holes in it, it's coming down this week. Not to mention, it looks like crap now. You were lucky to avoid damage to your contents. My biggest problem was water damage due to condensation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I built mine on a 12x20 platform so it was dry inside, no moisture from the ground. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rjg854 11,350 #31 Posted November 8, 2020 Looks like you might get few more years out of that, tarps are somewhat inexpensive I bet that bent section could be reenforced . I had a boss once that stressed cheap is beautiful! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
