Custom Outdoor Sheds. Built Right in Your Backyard.

Professional house-quality framing built on-site with 50% down and zero hassle

A small gray and white shed with a metal roof, surrounded by a grassy yard and a gravel path. In front of the shed are red garden chairs, an old wagon, and a few potted plants with flowers. There is a large tree to the right of the shed, and a wide open field with trees in the background.

Why Build On-Site?

A backyard scene with a wooden fence, green lawn, trees, bushes, and a house in the background. There is a small blue and red toy hanging from a tree branch.

Fits Any Yard or Gate

No need to tear down fence panels or worry about heavy delivery trucks destroying your lawn. We hand-carry materials piece-by-piece to build in tight suburban lots and enclosed backyards.

Built Like a Home

We frame using 2 x 4 studs on 16-inch centers, 2 x 6 floor joists, and heavy-duty LP SmartSide siding designed to easily withstand Minnesota snow loads and harsh winters.

  • “They built right in our backyard—no fence removal needed!”

    "We needed a serious storage shed for our snowblower and lawn tractor, but our yard has a narrow 36-inch gate and a tight fence line that made pre-built delivery impossible. Twin Cities Backyard Outposts carried every piece in by hand and framed a beautiful 10x12 Lean-To on site in just two days. The site was left completely spotless. Couldn't be happier!"

  • “Built like a real home, not a flimsy kit.”

    "After looking at low-end resin sheds at the big-box stores that felt like they'd blow over in a Minnesota blizzard, I decided to go with a custom build. The 2 x 4 framing, real 2 x 6 floor joists, and LP SmartSide siding on my 8x12 Gable shed are rock solid. You can tell immediately that this is real carpentry work built to last."

  • “Professional, punctual, and transparent pricing.”

    "From the initial quote to the final walkthrough, working with Mario was an absolute breeze. The 50% deposit process was clear, the quote didn't change, and the work started exactly on schedule. It’s rare to find a contractor who communicates this well and takes this much pride in his work."
