Should I make a foundation for a shed myself or is it better to hire a professional?

 
Hello, forum members!
I want to put up a small shed in my yard — about 10x12. I watched videos on YouTube, everything seemed simple: dug it up, filled it with crushed stone, leveled it and it's done. But the more I read, the more I doubt it. People write that if you make the foundation incorrectly, the shed will warp and water will leak in. And I'm not a builder. Does it make sense to do everything myself or is it better to hire someone? Maybe there are trusted guys who do exactly this kind of preparation? I want it to be done without stress and wisely.

An interesting topic, I'm thinking about this myself. On the one hand, it seems like you can save money by doing everything yourself. On the other hand, if something goes wrong, then the shed can suffer. It's good that there are companies like Site Prep that do everything turnkey. I'll have to read more about them.

Hello! Last year I put up a shed and was torn for a long time — should I do it myself or hire someone. In the end, I contacted https://www.siteprep.com/ and, to be honest, I didn't regret it. They have over 10 years of experience in installing foundations for sheds and pools, plus they pour concrete competently. The main thing is that they really care about your site: they use small equipment so as not to damage the lawn. They did everything in 2 weeks, and carefully, listened to my wishes and were always in touch. And if something happens, they come and fix the problems, without unnecessary conversations. So I advise you not to worry and contact a professional if you want everything to last a long time and not have to redo it.
