We custom-build sheds for:

- Custom Builds – Chicken coops, lined sheds, unique roof pitches and more
Need a skillion roof? Extra clearance? Custom cladding or flooring? We’ll build it to your exact spec.
Designed for Durability and Newcastle's Weather
Every shed we supply is built to last, using high-grade, Australian-made steel from trusted brands like Metromax and Absco Sheds. We also offer:
- Colorbond finishes in over 20 colours
- Skillion or gable roof profiles
- Timber flooring or concrete-ready bases
- Insulation, skylights, and cyclone-rated framing
- Roller doors, sliding doors, windows, and vents

The benefits of a Shed for your home
A custom shed can offer a lot of benefits to your home, such as:
Increase Property Value
A well-designed, custom-built shed adds usable space and functionality to your home or property, something buyers love. From added storage to a powered workspace, it’s a value-adding upgrade that’s easy to justify.
Purpose-Built to Fit Your Life
Unlike off-the-shelf kits, custom sheds are tailored to fit your exact needs, whether it’s a three-bay garage with roller doors, a hobby shed with skylights, or a lined shed that doubles as a studio. It’s your space, your way.
Made for Local Conditions
Newcastle’s weather can be harsh, hot sun, coastal air, storms. Our custom sheds are engineered for local conditions with durable Colorbond steel, insulation options, and cyclone-rated framing when needed.
Save Time & Money Long-Term
A properly built shed lasts for decades and requires little maintenance. You’ll avoid costly repairs, replacement headaches, and the limitations of cheaper kits. It’s peace of mind and durability in one.
