We are here to help you make the best decisions about your custom building project.
Is the site we’ve chosen the best location?
You may have what you think is the perfect place for your barn, but you may want a second option. If we have reservations about your choice we can explain why and suggest alternative locations.
Who is in charge of checking zoning regulations, getting permits, and putting in a foundation?
Though The Carriage Shed does supply a foundation plan and structural prints, the customer is responsible for all site work and foundation needs before the building can be delivered. They are also responsible for any post set up landscaping or finished grading. We suggest contacting your local town office for information regarding permits and zoning regulations.

A typical gambrel-style roof consists of two symmetrical sides. On each side of a gambrel, the roof starts from the ridge board at a low slope.
