Re-leveling on new blocks or a gravel pad is usually included; a new concrete pad is not.

Disassembly

Sheds wider than the legal limit may need the roof removed or be moved in sections, which adds labor.

Scheduling

Spring and fall are ideal, providing stable weather and avoiding summer's high temperatures and the potential for winter ice storms.

Backhaul luck
