Tuff Shed’s speciality structures come in a Modern style and a Weekender style and each of them feature several different sizes (including custom sizes) and options. The Premier PRO Studio comes in three standard sizes (8’x10′, 10’x12′ and 12’x16′) and has a more modern look. The structure features a single slope, shallow 3/12 pitched roof and 12″ and 24″ overhangs. On the tall front wall, high-end, low-e transom windows and a tempered, full glass residential style door are included. The 8’x10′ costs about $4,069, the 10’x12′ is about $4,749 and the 12’x16′ is about $7,549. However, depending on how far your location is from a Tuff Shed dealer and whether the structure is painted, prices will vary. The Premier PRO Weekender Ranch can be finished on the interior by the customer to create a more liveable space. This building includes a steel service door, two 3’x3′ windows, LP TechShield radiant barrier roof decking, 30-Year Owens Corning dimensional shingles, a front porch with overhang and can accommodate any of Tuff Shed’s standard options. The sizes range from 8’x14′ to 16’x24′ and the prices from $4,100 to $8,739. The Premier PRO Weekender Barn’s interior can also be customized for liveability. This building includes a steel service door, two 3’x3′ windows, LP TechShield radiant barrier roof decking, 30-Year Owens Corning dimensional shingles, a front porch with overhang and can accommodate any of the standard options. The sizes range from 10×12′ to 12×24′ and the prices from $4,879 to $8,623. Standard options for the structures include additional windows, skylights, vents, anchors and tie downs and custom siding. The Tuff Shed website also includes an interactive chart for choosing your shingle and siding colors. Each Tuff Shed product is pre-fabricated in a climate controlled environment, and once all the pieces are constructed, they are packaged and delivered to your site where the structure is installed, usually within one day.
