Our Construction Guarantee

Our portable buildings are the highest quality built structures in the business. This is our guarantee regarding the quality construction of our wooden portable buildings, manufactured by United Portable Buildings:

Flooring

1) All transportation runners attached to bottom of the building are 4x6 treated runners. The top edge of the runners have notches 1" deep for placement of the floor joists. This allows the floor joists to set down into the runners as opposed to sitting on top of the runners and being toe-nailed in.

2) Floor joists are 2x6 treated joists and are fastened to the runners with 3" galvanized nails. Floor joists are spaced either 12" or 16" on-center.

3) All flooring is a 5/8" pro-shed tongue & groove flooring made by LP Corp and has a 10 year limited warranty against termite damage or fungal decay. The flooring is fastened to the joists with 2" nails. ( All Garages come standard with 3/4 LP Legacy Flooring )

Walls

1) Premium grade 2x4s are used for wall construction. All studs are spaced 16" on-center. Nails used for wall framing are 3" framing nails.

2) The walls are double-plated on top. The top portion of the double top plate is a 2x8 and is also used to create the overhangs on the side walls.

3) All exterior siding is an LP smart panel siding, made by the LP corp, and is fastened to the walls with 2" nails. This siding has a 50 year limited warranty against termites or fungal decay.

Financing Available

We offer financing up to $100,000, low monthly payments, no prepayment penalties, and no home equity required. Approval is in less than 2 minutes. See more financing information here.

Roofs

1) On buildings 8', 10', or 12' in width all trusses are made from 2x4s and fastened together with zinc-plated truss plates. On anything that is 14' or 16' wide the trusses will be constructed with a 2x6 top chord on the truss and also fastened together with the zinc-plated truss plates. The truses are spaced 24" on-center.

2) A 7/16" osb is fastened to the trusses with 2" nails.

3) A roof covering of shingles or metal gets fastened to the osb. The shingles are a 30 year architectural shingle and the metal is a lifetime warranty, 29-gauge metal.

Exterior Coatings

1) On all the painted buildings the nail holes and all the trims are caulked or siliconed and then painted with a high quality exterior paint. The paint is projected to last 10-15 years.

2) Regarding all the urethane-stained buildings, all the window and door trims are siliconed with a superior clear silicone and then the urethane-stain is applied. The urethane-stain was designed for applications to the LP smart panel siding and trim and has a projected life expectancy of 15-20 years.

Rent to Own with NO Credit Check

Our program requires only your first month's rent for buildings $14,999 and under and your first month's rent and a 5% deposit if your building is $15,000 or more.
