How Much Does a Shed Cost?

Shed cost scales with floor area and construction type. Typical US ranges per square foot:

TypePer sq ft
Prefab metal$15 – $30
Wood kit$25 – $50
Custom-built$50 – $150

What Adds to the Cost

A foundation (gravel pad or concrete slab), windows, electrical, shelving and delivery or assembly all add to the base price. A concrete slab alone can add a few hundred to a couple thousand dollars.

Frequently Asked Questions

A wood kit runs about $25-50 per square foot, so a 10x12 (120 sq ft) shed is roughly $3,000-$6,000. Prefab metal is cheaper; custom-built costs more.

Most sheds sit on a gravel pad or concrete slab. A slab adds cost but improves durability and may be required for larger sheds.
