Let Us Help You Comply With Your Homeowner Association Guidelines

At Classic Buildings, we can help you comply with the particular guidelines that apply by working with you to design a portable cabin that will meet the requirements specified.

Choose the Exact Color to Match Your Home

At Classic Buildings we believe that a portable cabin should complement and add to the look of your property.

Choose from a wide variety of beautiful colors for the walls, trim, doors, and roof of your cabin.

Add Landscaping to Really Give Your Shed Curb Appeal

You can really punch up the curb appeal on your storage shed by adding some simple landscaping features like in the photo of Classic’s Quaker Shed below. If the ground is sloped around your shed, you can make the most of it by installing an attractive retaining wall or platform for your shed to sit on. The addition of a cobblestone walkway not only is very practical but it is quite beautiful. Adding shrubs and plants around your shed will help it to blend into the rest of your property and some flower boxes or hanging baskets can give it a little pop of color.
