Summary: Building storage sheds or garden sheds takes some important preplanning. Check your local building codes to see if a building permit is required for your shed. Outdoor storage sheds can be built on a wood frame or concrete foundation. Wood sheds are easy to build and very affordable. Should your shed plans call for a mini-garage door? Great for that riding lawn mower.

We went to pick out our do it yourself shed tonight and have ordered it.
However when talking to the salesman he told my husband it was not needed
to put any foundation under it, because it had a pretreated wooden floor
(guaratee for life) taht comes with it. I do not agree with him, because
anything I have ever heard in the past says it should sit on some other
foundation first. Rather it be a poored cement or wooden one. Could you
help me out? He plans on just sitting it straight on the ground. We need
this to last. Thanks
