Shed Site and Permit Readiness Checker

Tick what you know about your lot, from slope, drainage and utilities to setbacks, HOA rules and permits, to see how ready your site looks and which pages to read first.

These tools give planning-level estimates and drawings from typical values and the details you enter. They are not quotes, designs or engineering, legal, financial, safety or code advice, and results depend on your actual lot, the soil, the water, the local rules and your choices. No tool or plan can promise a particular outcome. Only a conversation and a look at your property can confirm what it needs, and we give you a written estimate before anything is ordered.

How it works

Four quick steps.

  1. 01

    Pick your lot

    Choose a flat lot, a slope, a wooded lot, a small urban lot or acreage.

  2. 02

    Set what you know

    Say how much you know about the rules and slide for how wet the spot gets.

  3. 03

    Tick what applies

    Slope, water, trees, lines, access, setbacks, HOA rules, permits, power, septic and easements.

  4. 04

    Read the outlook

    See how ready the site looks and which pages to read first.

Tips

  • Mark the spot, take photos from several angles and note water, trees and lines.
  • Call 811 before any digging and ask your local office about permits and setbacks.
  • Bring the checker results to a free estimate so we can start from them.
Questions

About this tool.

Does this decide whether I can build?

No. Rules come from your city, county and HOA. It is a checklist to help you prepare.

What if I am not sure about setbacks?

Tell us. We measure what we can and help you ask the right office.

Do I need a survey?

Sometimes, especially when lot lines are unclear. We tell you when one would help.
