Thank you for purchasing our Cypress shed kit.
If you received two books, use the one
with the latest revision date.
The material that is included in our kit is listed on the back page. The siding, roof sheathing
and the optional floor package,
if ordered
, will be supplied by a local supplier.
Our kit does not include the shingles, the quantity needed is listed on the back page. The
siding is primed. You will need to apply a finish coat using latex acrylic paint.
Our framing lumber is imported to provide you the highest quality available. However, if
you need to replace any lumber for any reason please do so and we will reimburse you.
IMPORTANT:
Unpack the material from the pallet, then unscrew the bottom 2x4s from
the pallet runners. The bit for the screws is packed in the hardware bag.
Stacking the boards, according to size, will make them easier to find when needed.
Some
boards have colored ends.
Do Not
discard any material until your building is complete.
If you have any questions about assembling the kit, call 800-245-1577. If you are calling
