Frequently Asked Questions

Sheds attached to or near mobile homes are susceptible to weathering, and there are a few key signs that indicate your shed might need repair. One of the most common signs is leaking—if you notice water inside your shed after a rainstorm, the roof or walls might have cracks or missing shingles. Inspect the roof regularly for damage such as missing shingles, holes, or flashing issues around vents and edges.

Rotting wood or rusty metal are also common signs of damage, especially if your shed is older. If the doors or windows are hard to open or have become warped, the structure might have settled, or the frame could be shifting. Another sign to look out for is inconsistent floor stability—if the floor feels spongy or is cracking, it could indicate water damage or the need for structural repairs.

Finally, check for pest infestation—if critters are gaining access, it could be a sign of structural weaknesses, like gaps in the foundation or walls.
