So when we moved into this house (our first house) almost 6 years ago this shed was in the backyard. After the first few months the doors began to bust. My husband tried and tried to fix them but there was no use. While it was always an ugly shed I always imagined I could easily paint it and give it a fresh look once (if ever) we got it working functionally again. More time passed and eventually I excepted that there was no way it was worth trying to fix. So next I was on to dreaming of a new shed. Much much more time passed and we just never managed to pull the money together. It really shouldn't have surprised me but sheds are expensive! Even the ugly cheapest ones. There was also the reality that in the climate we live in (lots of snow!) That a cheap shed wouldn't be a good idea. So once again more and more time passed and then I moved on to my final solution ridding our backyard of the huge green beast.
Reorganize the carport to contain the sheds contents and just rip the darn things down!
So after 6 years of trying to figure out what to do with this thing... IT IS GONE!!!
I hope none of my neighbors were on shift work and trying to sleep during the day because I "smashed it good"! I started by just trying to take it apart but all the screws/nuts/bolts were a rusty mess and I couldn't get them apart. So I ended up just smashing the thing into pieces with my hammer. Amazingly I only got one very small scratch and one big bruise from getting too careless with my hammer and smashing myself in the ankle with the claw. Not fun!
So after a long day the shed it finally gone and I have a patio space that is twice the size it used to be. Now I've also added another job to my
Home Reno & Maintenance List.
- Trim a huge amount off of the tree in our yard to let in some more sunshine.
