Corey thought he’d found a bargain—a discounted shed kit delivered straight to his front yard. But what seemed like a great deal quickly spiraled into a costly nightmare. The shed didn't meet council requirements, lacked proper wind ratings, and came with generic plans that didn’t fit his property. When he sought help, the supplier washed their hands of the issue, and builders refused to take on the project due to liability concerns.

Attempting to build it himself, Corey enlisted friends and family, investing in tools and equipment. But without professional guidance, the project became overwhelming. The shed was too large, lacked council approval, and violated insurance terms. Selling the property later would require disclosing the non-compliant structure, potentially reducing its value.

This case highlights the risks of opting for cheap, generic shed kits. Without a licensed builder's design, you may face compliance issues, unexpected costs, and legal troubles. Investing in a custom-designed shed with a licensed builder ensures quality, compliance, and long-term savings.
