Frequently asked questions

3. Are your sheds custom-built or pre-fabricated?

All sheds are custom-built on site—not pre-fabricated or kit-based. This allows for better durability, customization, and a finished product that complements your home and landscape.

  • Workshops

  • Garages

  • Utility buildings

  • Specialty and unique accessory structures

  • Tiny homes, ADU's, Cabins
  • Playhouses

If you have a specific project in mind, I'm happy to discuss custom options.

5. How long does it take to build a storage shed?

Build times vary depending on size and complexity, but most custom sheds are completed within a few days once construction begins. You’ll receive a clear timeline during the planning phase. It take time to order materials and have them delivered. I often schedule a week per shed to allow for any unforeseen complications.

6. Do you handle permits for shed construction?

Permit requirements vary by location and structure size. I help guide homeowners through local permit requirements in Corvallis and surrounding areas and can assist with planning accordingly. Most of my builds do not require permits. I do have larger accessory structure blueprints I offer that do require a permit.

7. What makes Affinity Gray Industries different from other shed builders?

Unlike high-volume shed companies, every structure is built by me personally, not subcontracted crews or employees. This ensures:

  • Higher build quality

  • Consistent craftsmanship

  • Direct communication

  • Personal accountability

Your project isn’t just another order—it’s a reflection of our reputation.

8. Are your sheds built to last in Oregon weather?

Yes. My sheds are built using quality materials and proven construction methods designed to withstand Oregon’s wet winters and seasonal changes.

9. Can you match my existing home or property style?

Absolutely. I design sheds to complement your home, including roof styles, siding, trim, and layout options to ensure a cohesive look.

10. How do I get a quote for a custom shed?

You can request a quote by contacting me directly through our website or Google Business Profile. We’ll discuss your needs, property details, and provide a clear, honest estimate.

11. Can a storage shed be used as a living space?

What you do with the structure I build for you is up to you when I leave. A storage shed can be designed or converted for use as a living space, such as a studio, guest room, home office, or shed home. I build sheds specifically intended for future or immediate interior finishing, making them well-suited for livable use when local codes and zoning allow. The specifics on this topic are case by case and can be discussed.

12. Do you build shed homes or tiny home–style sheds?

Yes. I design and build shed homes and tiny home–style structures tailored to your needs. These are custom builds—not kits—and are constructed to support insulation, utilities, and long-term use.

13. Are your sheds built on skids, blocks, or concrete foundations?

We offer multiple foundation options depending on your site, intended use, and local requirements. Options may include skids, pier blocks, or concrete slabs, and we help you choose the best solution for your project. Most sheds are on pier blocks.

14. How much does a custom storage shed cost?

Pricing depends on size, design, materials, site conditions, and level of interior finish. Custom sheds typically cost more than mass-produced options but offer greater durability, customization, and long-term value. We provide clear, upfront estimates after discussing your project. 

15. Is a permit required to build a shed in Corvallis or Benton County?

Permit requirements vary by location, shed size, and intended use. We help clients understand local permit considerations in Corvallis, Benton County, and surrounding areas, but final approvals are issued by the local jurisdiction. The short answer is anything less than 200 sq ft requires no permit.
