Welcome to Cahaba Shed Crafters, the premier on-site shed builder serving the greater Birmingham area. We don’t sell pre-built sheds, we craft your shed, designed to match your unique style and needs. With many customization options, on-site construction, and transparent pricing, we bring your dream space to life. So what makes us different from the other shed builders?
1. Build Your Shed, Your WayHave you ever spotted those roadside shed lots and wished for a custom option tailored just for you? Why settle for a one-size-fits-all shed? At Cahaba Shed Crafters, we specialize in creating beautiful, personalized sheds that reflect your taste both inside and out. Choose from a wide range of options to make your shed uniquely yours; whether it’s for storage, a workshop, or a backyard retreat.
2. Hassle-Free On-Site ConstructionDo you have a narrow gate that makes delivery of a pre-built shed impossible? Are you concerned about heavy equipment tearing up your yard? Give us a call. Our team hand-carries materials to your site and builds your shed from the ground up, ensuring minimal impact on your property. No need to remove fences or stress about ruined landscaping; our process is designed to keep your yard pristine.
3. Transparent Pricing, No SurprisesIt seems like everything we buy these days has hidden costs. Whether it is doc fees, dealer fees, installation fees, warranty fees or even taxes, these hidden costs can turn your dream project into a budget nightmare. At Cahaba Shed Crafters we reject these bait and switch tactics. The prices you see on our site are the prices you pay when we build your shed. We even include all taxes in our pricing so there will be no surprises. We want you to be able to plan your dream space confidently, knowing there are no surprises waiting.

There are many reasons to build on-site vs moving in a pre-built shed. If you have a fenced backyard it can be a hassle, not to mention an extra expense, to have part of the fence removed and then replaced after moving in a shed. Building on-site does not tear up your yard as is done when you have heavy machinery driving over it to bring in a shed. Loading and unloading these pre-built sheds puts a lot of stress on them cutting their usable lifespan. Our sheds are built on-site by our professional builders so that you get to enjoy your new shed for many more years to come.
Our high quality starts in the floor. We set our sheds on solid cinder blocks to eliminate wood to ground contact. We frame the floor with treated 2X6 lumber rather than the industry standard 2X4s. Our 3/4 plywood floor decking gives a more solid floor than the 5/8 plywood used by many builders.
The quality continues into the wall and roof framing which is always 16 inches on center. I do not know of another shed builder in the area that frames this way. They all frame it 24 inches on center. This means we have an extra stud and roof truss for every four foot of your wall and roof which makes a stiffer and more secure wall and a stronger roof.
Our sheds are sided with LP Smart Siding - a manufactured wood siding which carries a 50 year manufacturer warranty. Although this is a pretty popular siding choice for shed builders, there are certain manufacturer requirements that must be followed or the warranty is void. 1. It must be installed on framing that is 16 inches on center and 2. It must be painted. We include both of these elements standard on our sheds. Most other builders will not include both of these elements in their standard pricing and will then offer it as an upgrade if you happen to ask about it. Our customers can rest easy that we have done our research on all the products that we use and that we follow best practices to give you a long lasting shed without you having to ask and without surprising you with extra charges.
We custom paint the exterior of every shed using Sherwin Williams' Super Paint which carries a lifetime warranty. You can choose up to three colors included in our standard pricing.
The roof decking we install has a built-in radiant barrier to help keep your shed from getting as hot in the summer. We install 30 year architectural shingles on our sheds which is what is used on most new homes today. Many of our competitors use the 15 year 3-tab shingles.
Our sheds come standard with fresh air vents in the gable ends. This helps clear moisture out of the shed so that you don't get mildew growth inside.
Cahaba Shed Crafters is proud to offer high quality products and great value. We have an impressive selection of options to add your personal touch to your shed. Whether you are looking for storage or hobby space, home office or tiny house, we have the options to personalize your shed to fit your needs. Browse through our options below to get a better idea of what we offer and feel free to get in touch with us about any questions. We will be more than happy to assist you with whatever you may need.
$120 each
Our standard windows have aluminum frames and have an operational bottom sash with a screen. All our sheds under 80 square feet come with one free window included. Sheds from 80 to under 200 square feet come with up to two free windows. All sheds 200 square feet and over come with up to three free windows. This price is for additional windows.
Double $300
Single $200
Our sheds come standard with your choice of a single or double door. Some people like an additional point of access and we can definitely accommodate that need.
$150
If you plan to be storing large items like appliances or riding lawn mowers a ramp can be very useful. It can also be helpful if the lay of the land causes the door side of your shed to be higher off the ground. Some people prefer steps to a ramp and we can build a set up to 4 steps high for the same price.
7 foot sidewalls $200
8 foot sidewalls $300
Our sheds come standard with 6-1/2 foot sidewalls. This is high enough for most applications without being too high for most HOAs. Depending on the use for the shed however it may make sense to have higher walls. We are happy to offer 7 ft and 8 ft sidewall options.
$100 each
If you want to add extra daylight in your shed or just want a special look these windows will deliver!
Shutters $50/ pair
Window boxes $50 each
These additions beautify your shed and can be painted to match your color scheme. Our custom painting includes up to 3 colors so you can paint your shutters and windowboxes to match your trim or paint them an accent color. We have two styles of shutters - the louvered style and the craftsman style.
Workbench $125
Loft $175
Three shelf unit $200
Our workbench is 24 inches deep and is usually set at 36 inches height.
The loft is handy for storing items up high that you may need only occasionally. It is 32 inches deep and is usually installed above head height. We recommend upgrading the sidewalls to 7 or 8 foot if you want a loft.
The shelf unit is 16 inches deep and comes with 3 shelves. We usually space the shelves equally on the wall.
One light head with panel $100
Two light heads with panel $150
If you plan to be in your shed for extended times or if you know you'll need light we offer a solar lighting option to help light up the inside.
$3/ square foot of insulated surface
We can insulate your floors, walls and ceiling. Any surfaces we insulate we will also include a vapor barrier. If you plan to insulate later we recommend letting us insulate at least the floor since that is hard to go back and insulate later.
$7/square foot of covered surface
This is a beautiful interior wall covering that gives a Gatlinburg cabin feel! We can install this on walls and ceiling.
$4/ square foot of covered surface
This is our less expensive inside wall covering. If you don't want studs and insulation showing inside, this is a way to cover them that gives a hunting cabin feel.
Priced per shed
Our dormers offer a great asthetic to your shed. It just sets it off as something different and more appealing than the basic storage shed. They also offer a way to get additional light into the shed from overhead. We offer two styles with several size options. (These options will require upgrading the roof angle to accommodate the dormers.)
Priced per shed
These are two options we offer to upgrade the look of your shed. If you want to make your shed stand out one or both of these options are a solid choice.
My name is Steven Caudill. I've been in construction since I was in my teens installing shingles in Wisconsin in freezing weather! I moved to Alabama in my early 20s and completed a carpentry apprenticeship with Brice Building company and continued there for about 10 years. When they closed their doors I started a home repair business which I enjoyed a lot. After several years of repairing, replacing and building anything and everything, I decided to specialize into building sheds in 2022. Now in our 4th year, I am more excited than ever to help you get your perfect shed. As a family business you may get to meet some of my young helpers from time to time. I look forward to meeting you and helping you create your extra space!
