LIVESTOCK SHELTERS

We source from our Amish builder in Sullivan and Arcola, Illinois We have been together and have enjoyed a great relationship throughout the years. We take pride in our small business by supporting another Illinois small business. The Amish take great pride in their craftsmanship skills and offer a 10 year Craftsmanship Warranty.

We strive to provide a raving fan experience, check our google reviews to see what our customers are saying about us. We are a manufacture so the sheds and garages get built right here and get delivered straight to you. We do this to try to make it an easy and enjoyable purchase for you.

Portable Buildings are movable structures and not permanent so therefore are not usually added to your property value. You will be required to pay sales tax on the purchase. Regulations are constantly changing so it is best to ask your local office to make sure.

Everlast Portable Buildings offers a Build On Site option. We will send an Amish crew that will assembly your building on your property.

Transport Companies does not remove fencing. We suggest having your original fence contractor take down the fence and then put it back up when we are done with building installation. Everlast Portable Buildings will coordinate with you as to delivery date and time so you don't have to live too long with the fence down. Usually 1 day will do it. We also offer On Site Building as an option.

Yes we have a transportaion team that can help you with moving a shed/building. The cost will depend on size of the building, how far it is being moved and the difficulty of the pick up and delivery. Also if any special permitting is required with D.O.T.

Built on Site buildings can be installed on a concrete pad without a floor. You will need to provide a concrete slab that is square and level the size of the building you are ordering and be not more than 6" of grade. Please check your codes in your area for requirements. Build On site pricing is in the catalog on page 29. Everlast will anchor the building to the concrete pad.

Our typical lead time is 4-5 weeks although it varies with the time of year. Your shed is made to order (unless of course you bought a in stock building). In stock buildings are delivered with in 7-10 business days from Granville lot, although this also could vary with time of year. Deliveries off of Boondocks Barns Lot could be as soon as the next day for in stock buildings. For Build On Site buildings lead times are normally 2-3 months again depending on orders. They only do so many Build on sites per month. This allows more workers in shop.

✅ Key Benefits of LP SmartSide

Here are the major strengths of LP SmartSide:

• Durability & impact resistance: LP SmartSide uses engineered wood strands treated via the “SmartGuard®” process (including zinc borate, water-resistant waxes, resins) to resist moisture, fungal decay, termites, warping, etc.
  

  • It has been shown in tests to resist hail up to 1.75″ diameter and wind gusts up to ~200 mph in some cases.

  • It’s less brittle / less prone to cracking than fiber cement (and by extension many siding materials) under impact.

• Aesthetic / natural look: It offers a realistic wood-grain texture, variety of profiles (lap siding, shakes, board & batten), and a more “wood-look” appearance than vinyl or typical metal siding.

• Installation and labor advantages:
  

  • Longer panel lengths (up to 16′) reduce seams and joints, which means fewer potential leak points and a cleaner look.

  • It’s lighter than some heavy siding materials (e.g., fiber cement) so easier to handle on job site and can reduce labor effort.

  • Cuts with standard woodworking tools (rather than specialized tools) and produces less dust than fiber cement.

• Low maintenance relative to real wood: Because of its engineered nature and protective treatments, it resists warping, splitting, and doesn’t require the same level of maintenance (painting/staining) as raw wood siding

• Environmental/sustainability edge: Manufactured with wood strands sourced from sustainably managed forests under certification (SFI) and some literature notes a lower carbon footprint.

• Warranty coverage: LP SmartSide offers strong warranties (for example, a 50-year limited warranty for substrate and a 5-year 100% material + labor portion in some variants) which gives buyer reassurance.

Strengths of LP over a metal-sided structure :

• Better aesthetic / more “home-like” appearance: If you’re building a shed, outbuilding or structure where you care about curb appeal or matching a home, LP SmartSide gives a more natural wood/wood-grain look compared to exposed corrugated metal or plain metal panels.

• Less thermal conduction / better potential insulation behavior: Metal building panels are good for durability, but metal can conduct heat/cold more aggressively (leading to hotter interiors, more condensation) if not well insulated. Engineered wood siding over proper framing may give better thermal comfort (depending on building design).

• Lower noise/less sound reverberation: Metal siding/panels can be loud when rain, hail, or wind hit (you’ll hear that thump/echo) whereas a siding system with wood/engineered wood may dampen sound more.

• Seam aesthetics: LP SmartSide with long panel lengths means fewer visible seams which can improve weather resistance and look. Metal panels often have visible joints or overlaps which can be more obvious.

• Flexibility in profiles and finishes: LP SmartSide gives more style/texture options (shakes, board & batten, lap, etc.) than typical bare metal siding (though metal comes with its own variety, but might lean more industrial).

Strengths of LP over vinyl:

• Higher impact & durability: LP SmartSide is shown to outperform vinyl (and fiber cement) in impact/freeze-thaw/large hail scenarios. For example, LP’s materials “resist hail damage better than fiber cement and vinyl.”

• Better appearance/texture: Vinyl siding tends to have a smoother plasticky finish and less natural texture; LP SmartSide offers realistic wood grain texture and more premium look - good if appearance matters.

• Lower expansion/contraction issues: Vinyl expands and contracts significantly with temperature changes, which can lead to buckling or gaps over time. Engineered wood siding like LP tends to behave more stably (though it is wood‐based, so proper installation still needed).

• More premium/residential feel: If the building/shed is visible and you’d prefer a premium finish, LP SmartSide provides that.

• Better sustainability credentials: Vinyl is plastic‐based, virgin polymer; LP SmartSide uses wood (renewable) and has some greener credentials. (Though vinyl has its own manufacturing advantages in some ways.)

Payment Terms:

• Cash Sales: A 10% down deposit is required to place your building on the production list. The remaining balance is due upon delivery.

• Credit Card Payments: No fee is charged on the down payment. The remaining balance due on delivery is subject to a 3% processing fee.

• Rent-to-Own and Financing Sales: Deposits vary depending on the specifications of each custom shed.
