Quit depressing me QR TRHRS. I can't even buy the lumber for that, let alone erected, LOL.

This one here is 30 grand, and that was with the cheapest builder that could be found. 36 by 28, 14 foot ceiling, 12 foot door.

Slab is 5 inch thick with rebar, plastic and rigid insulation under it. That was $6500.

$16,000 for building package. 2x6 studs. Interior vapor barrier and insulation will be around $3000.

Will have 40 grand into it once the insulation and plywood is put on walls and ceiling inside.

It's built a little better than what was need for code around here. Didn't need that many fire stops in the walls and it has an extra top plate.

You're doing good. I just paid $45 a 4X8 sheet for 7/16 OSB here.

No way, man. I also live in Ontario and it is not that expensive. I just checked and it is only $15 a sheet at Home Depot here in Toronto.

Yep, 6 sheets to close the sides on a shed, almost $300 bucks.

Paystar, where r u buying this stuff, and r u sure it is OSB and not regular Spruce Ply?

Lumber store out here in my rural neck of the woods. I think that is what it is called OSB....it's that pressboard crap not real plywood.

Guess I got ripped off?? LOLl

Rural can add a lot to the price. The more rural, the more 'rural surcharge'. But unless you're up around Thunder Bay, I can't see triple the price for a sheet of OSB.

At $7 a square foot, it makes you wonder how much profit is in it after materials?

These guys did the labor cheap Eddie. I was really surprised. It took a bit longer because they had other jobs on the go, but no big deal. Was the only quote that low. But the building inspector said he was impressed so they did a good job as far as I can see.

No windows either. Just the big door and one man door.
