Shed Maintenance
Our sheds are designed to give you decades of enjoyment while retaining their good looks with minimal effort. However, there are a few steps that you can take to ensure that your shed ages gracefully.
Red Cedar
10' x 14' Saltbox Cedar Lap Shed
Shown with 2 Optional Windows
and Shutters and Dual Black Shingles
Stainable
If you want the look of natural cedar, simply use an exterior stain/sealer that has UV protection. Since semi-transparent stains vary in appearance on different woods, you may want to consult a professional, or test the stain on an inconspicuous part of your shed first. We do not recommend the use of paint.
Treated Pine
8' x 12' Saltbox Shed Shown with
Optional Windows, Shutters, and
Architectural Shingles
Stainable & Paintable
If you have purchased a shed with pine siding, you should apply at least one coat of stain or sealer to it. You can paint it, if you wish, as long as you use a quality primer first, followed by two coats of exterior latex paint. This should keep your shed protected and looking great for at least ten years. If you want the look of natural pine, simply use an exterior stain/sealer that has UV protection. Since semi-transparent stains vary in appearance on different woods, you may want to consult a professional, or test the stain on an inconspicuous part of your shed first.
Vinyl
Vinyl siding is very popular for many reasons, and one of those reasons is the exceptionally low level of maintenance required to keep it clean.
For optimal care:
Apply warm, soapy water with a sponge.
Use a standard garden hose to rinse clean.
Occasional stubborn spots may require scrubbing with a soft-bristle brush.
Do not use a pressurer washer.
SmartSide
SmartSide is a superb material for outdoor siding and will last for many years in a wide range of climates if cared for properly.
For optimal care:
Visually inspect the condition of the siding at least once a year.
Use a cloth, sponge, or soft brush and a bucket filled with a solution of mild detergent and water, then rinse with a garden hose.
Use a solution of three parts water to one part white vinegar to remove light mold and mildew stains.
Never use harsh abrasives or solvents on your siding; these can damage the surface or paint.
Do not use a pressure washer.
