Pine Creek Structures - Standard Construction Specifications

I can not emphasize how important it is to understand how your storage shed is constructed.  This can determine the longevity of your shed as well as the strength of the actual structure.

We will utilize a 10X14 size shed to talk about how it is built.  The first number, 10, is the width of the storage shed, and the 14' is the length.  At the base of our structure you will have 5 premium grade 4x4 pressure treated runners.  These runners span the length of the storage shed.  Above these runners traversing perpendicular are premium grade 2x4 pressure treated floors joists spaced 16" on center.  So the joists are nailed to the runners, next the 5/8" LP Smart Flooring is installed and nailed to the floor joists.

All of our walls on our standard construction sheds are 2x4 16" on center.  We then uses double top plates and double studs in the corners both interlocking for additional structural supports.  Above the wall plates are 2x4 rafters with nailed gusset plates and collar ties 16" on center.  These both help to ensure that our storage sheds will exceed the recommended snow load in your area.  

Our most popular siding is our 50 year LP Smart Siding.  This product is infused with a zinc borate so it is not prone to absorb waters and oils, resists fungal decay, and is termite proof; as LP states, "Bugs won't bug it".  All shingles are lifetime Timberline GAF, and all vinyl siding also holds a lifetime warranty.  In easier terms it will be the last building you purchase.

At Pine Creek Structures we stride to build our structures better as at the end of the day the quality of our product is who we are.  As a result we finish each shed with a quality control stamp to ensure that it meets or exceeds our standards.

Stop by one of our locations today and have one of our managers walk you the buildings to show you the quality in person.

Customer Service

I recently had an issue with a package I ordered from the largest online company in the world.  So I decided to call to inquire about it's whereabouts.  What I was expecting; long hold time, press 1 for English, your call is important to us, please hold.

Instead, the phone rang once, and an actual person answered.  I was blown away that this billion dollar company actually understood the importance of customer service, as well as the high likelihood that by providing such exceptional service your bottom line is directly impacted with a positive result.

That is one of the reasons that Pine Creek Structures is customer oriented.  I tell people all of the time, anyone can take someones money, but if the delivery of products or services is not rendered to the customers liking, that the lasting impression of your business is a negative one.

We try to take extra steps when dealing with our customers.  From visits to their home to address any questions or issues, to sending a simple thank you note with our personal contact information.  We make ourselves available by providing our customers with our business lines, cell phone numbers, e-mail addresses, as well as means to contact us via social media.

The reason, because I want to treat every customer how I want to be treated.  I want to go home at night knowing that I conducted business in a positive, honest, and satisfying manner.  I want my reputation to proceed me, and if that means going the extra length it is well worth it.

The best part is, I am not alone.  Throughout all of our retail locations our Business Managers have their hearts invested in the company, this is our livelihood.  We strive to be the best.  Offering the best warranties, the best products, the best customer service.  And that is why we continue to see growth year after year.  At the end of the day, we are not in the shed business, we are in the making people happy business.

Stop by one of our many locations and see how important you are to us.

Be well,

Doug Marcarelli

Why Pine Creek?

One of the many questions that we are asked is, "Why go with you?". There are a few things that separate Pine Creek Structures from the competition. To begin there are not many times when one has the ability to buy manufacturer direct. Not only to we retail storage sheds, but we make them. As a result we are held accountable from the purchase date until delivery date, from start to finish, top to bottom. If there is an issue then you can be sure that it will be addressed in a timely manner, professionally to your liking, and above all to your satisfaction.

 Another reason why we stand apart is our warranties. To my knowledge there are no other manufacturers that offer a 6 year warranty, from siding to windows and doors. If any part of your shed has an issue you can rest assured, as it is covered.

Not to mention the siding and shingles. On all LP siding sheds you are given a 5/50 year warranty. For 5 years should a defect occur Louisiana Pacific will replace all defected material taking care of parts and labor. For the additional 45 years it is a prorated warranty against rot, decay, and infestation.

Vinyl siding has a lifetime warranty, that's right, lifetime. Timberline GAF rated shingles are standard on every storage shed, so you need not worry about your valuables being damaged by the elements.

 Lastly you can be sure you are purchasing a product that is Made in America. By purchasing American made products, you are providing jobs, supporting the local economy, and making a difference for your friends, neighbors, and families. So stop down to one of our locations today, and see how we can help you with portable storage solutions, outdoor furniture, or multi-car/on site construction.

Striving forward together in 2013,

Winter Deliveries

Many people wonder if it is possible to receive a shed delivery in the winter.  At Pine creek Structures is it.  We are still taking orders for new buildings, and have over 50 stock buildings that can be delivered in a couple of business days. 

Once the snow starts to fall, we are still able to deliver with our shed mules.  Designed to traverse tough terrain, we are able to deliver with up to 6" of snow on the ground.  And believe it or not, many people choose to order in the colder weather.  Low temperatures equates to a more firm service to deliver on, causing less indentations in yards.

The video in this post shows you an example of a mule delivery.  If you wish for a spring delivery you are able to put a deposit down and request delivery when the warmer weather sets in.  The great part about ordering a storage shed in the winter is the potential to obtain discounts on stock inventory.  We tend to move older stock in the winter to make room for newer sheds in the spring.

So stop by a Pine Creek Structures today and discover the value.

There's tough, then there's Amish tough,

Rent To Own

Many people ask us, how does the Rent To Own program work - well, very successfully. Renting to own a shed is a great alternative to purchasing one out right. First off, the payments are affordable. By paying monthly, it isn't going to put a damper on your savings account, rather, you can make it part of your budget.

Another great aspect is NO CREDIT CHECK - that's right. Some think it is crazy, maybe we are, but even still, you deserve a second chance. Listen, everyone makes mistakes, let's just move on.

Guaranteed approval - another avenue less traveled, especially in today's economy. You can have no credit, little credit, bad credit, you still walk out with a new order or a stock building.

This is my favorite part, when I get to tell people where the money goes. Our rent to own program is head up by a company called Good Shepherd Rentals. Good Shepherd knows that they have a decision and can do what ever they like with their money, and the decision they have made is a wonderful one.

Their profits go to run an orphanage in South America. They realize, when you are blessed, it is up to you to take care of the less fortunate. Personally, I applaud their efforts, as well as their integrity to step up and and to do what is right.

So that is a little about our rent to own program - stop by or give us a call with any questions.

Your storage expert,
