I need to get a roughly 20’x30’ slab poured so I can put up a shed in the near future. I really need to get a place to store my sleds, lawn mower, etc so they aren’t just sitting outside in the rain. I have my eye on a few sheds or I may just build my own, but regardless I need the slap poured. Does anyone know someone who does concrete work and can give me a rough ballpark estimate so I know what I need to come up with? ---

I want to do it the full width of the garage (I believe it’s only 16’ but I’m just saying 20’ to be safe) and long enough to hold 3 sleds, riding mower, push mower, 2 bikes (in the winter) and all that other crap. I found a couple pre-made at around 14’x24’ but I’m not sure what I want to do yet. If I build my own, I can share the back garage wall (even maybe make a doorway) and it will be easier permit wise because I am just extending a pre-existing structure rather than adding new… ---

When it comes time, I will be doing the whole permit thing (or at least finding out if I need to). The last thing I want is for them to see it on their satellite views and coming after me. ---

When my parents had my friend build them a shed they did wood floor on cinder blocks as a foundation so it wasn’t a fixed structure. It was a loophole around the permit. Not sure if your town is the same though. ---

in Rotterdam no permit is needed for a pre-made shed but you need one to build a wooden kit shed. Nothing needed for a metal shed either. We already had a huge slab in place from the previous owners of the house and put it on there. ---

Hmm i dunno. This was 5 yrs ago or so. They checked into it and were told no permit needed maybe it changed. Either way its been there and they’ve never been hassled. ---

Every area is different, I know in Schenectady if the structure is over 100 sq ft you need a permit, I checked into that last year when I built my shed. ---

I’m looking at something around 12’x24’ minimum so I will need a permit almost guaranteed. I am most likely going to be building one so it suits my exact needs. ---
