Frequently Asked Questions

Delivery, rent-to-own financing, warranty, sizing, and more — search or browse below.

Do you deliver? How does delivery work?

Free Delivery & Setup

Delivery and setup are FREE within 50 miles of Port Charlotte, FL. The driver levels your building on site using treated wood blocks and shims. Beyond 50 miles it’s $5 per mile, one way. 14 ft wide buildings have an added permit and pilot-car fee.

Before delivery, make sure:

  • At least 4 ft of clearance on all sides of the building
  • The truck and trailer can get in — it may be 75 ft long and 15.6 ft tall
  • No low gates, power lines or cable lines block the path

Drivers won’t set a building more than 6 inches off the ground without an extra charge, and they don’t trim trees, clear brush or move fences. An unusually difficult delivery can cost extra — we’ll always tell you before the day. How to get your yard ready.

Do you offer rent-to-own?

Rent-to-Own — No Credit Check

Yes. Rent-to-own with no credit check and no penalty for paying it off early. Terms are 36, 48 or 60 months — a shorter term costs more per month and less overall.

To get started it’s a deposit plus your first payment. It’s a simple, quick contract, and a popular choice for people who don’t want to pay for the whole building up front. Ask us and we’ll get you the monthly payment for the building and size you want.

Heavily customized builds sometimes have to be bought outright rather than rent-to-own — we’ll tell you if that applies. More on how rent-to-own works.

What's the warranty?

Building Warranty

  • 5-year warranty on workmanship and materials from Weather King
  • 40-year warranty on metal roofs
  • LP Smart Panel siding — 5-year 100% labor and replacement, plus a 50-year prorated limited warranty on the substrate
  • Limited lifetime warranty against termite damage and fungal decay on pressure-treated materials

Not covered: weather damage (wind, hail, flood), the contents of your building, normal wear, lost keys, glass not reported at delivery, and customer-added modifications.

Ramps, steps and decks you add yourself can void the warranty on that area — buy them from us and it stays intact. If a door or window sticks after the building settles, have the leveling checked first: that’s usually the cause.

How are the buildings made? What's the quality?

Built to Last

Every building is hand-built, not mass-produced. Quality features include:

  • Ring shank galvanized nails — prevent rust spots
  • Doubled wall studs under siding seams for extra strength
  • Pressure-treated floor joists set into notched pressure-treated skids
  • Key-locked, reinforced 2x4 doors
  • Air vents for circulation & temperature control
  • Windows are rated for 160 mph winds
  • Flood vents available if you are in a flood zone
  • We will send you engineer plans and master anchor plans to assist you in obtaining your permit with your city

Wood is a natural material, so minor knots, sap pockets, or small splits are normal and don't affect structural integrity.

What payment methods do you take?

Payment Options

We take cash, check, credit card, and rent-to-own with no credit check.

Buying outright: 50% down to start the build, the balance when it’s delivered.
Rent-to-own: a deposit plus your first payment.

Pay in full and there’s no interest, or spread it out with rent-to-own — your choice. See financing for the details.

What do I have to put down to get started?

Getting Started

Buying outright: 50% down to start the build, the rest when it’s delivered.
Rent-to-own: a deposit plus your first payment.

Your building goes into the Weather King shop once the deposit is in, and it’s typically 3–5 weeks from there. We don’t take a payment before you’ve seen a written quote with everything on it.

What if I need to cancel?

Cancelling an Order

Before your build has started, get in touch and we’ll sort it out.

Once it has started, there’s a 15% cancellation fee, worked out on the price of the building, and the rest of what you’ve paid comes back to you. Your building is already being cut and put together to your size, doors and colors by then, so it isn’t something we can simply sell to the next customer.

If you’re having second thoughts about the size or the layout rather than the building itself, tell us early — changing it before the build starts is usually easy. Full details on our terms page.

Can I customize my building?

Lots of Options

Absolutely. Pick your siding color, trim, roof color and every door and window. Every option we offer is here, with a price and a picture for each — doors, windows, electrical packages, shelving, work benches, ramps, moisture and radiant barriers, dormers, shutters and flower boxes.

The best way to see it is to build it in 3D — pick everything visually and watch the price change as you go.

What add-on options cost

Add-On Pricing

Every option we sell is on one page, with the price and a picture of each: see all the options.

A few to give you the idea — 36″ in-swing door $500, 11-lite French doors $750, 8′ roll-up garage door $650, 2x3 double-pane window $200, shutters $75 a set, electrical packages from $700, ramps from $250.

Anything priced by the square foot — moisture barrier, radiant barrier, floor joists — is worked out on the size you pick, and the 3D designer adds it up as you go.

Where are you located? What area do you serve?

Port Charlotte, FL — Delivering Across Southwest Florida

We’re a family-run Weather King dealership based in Port Charlotte. There’s no display lot — nothing is built until it’s somebody’s — but we’d love to give you a tour of the shop, where you can see different styles out in the yard waiting to get painted, roofed and delivered. Just ask and we’ll set up a time.

Delivery is free within 50 miles, which covers Punta Gorda, North Port, Englewood and Rotonda West, Venice, most of Sarasota, Arcadia, Cape Coral, Fort Myers and Lehigh Acres, and Wauchula. Beyond 50 miles it’s $5 per mile one way. Each town has its own page with local permit rules — see everywhere we deliver. Text or email your address to confirm coverage.

How long until I get my building?

Timeline

Every building is hand-built to order — nothing is sitting in stock, so yours gets built the size, doors and colors you pick. That takes about 3–5 weeks from order to delivery.

Do I need a permit or to prep my site?

Site & Permits

  • Permits, setbacks, and anchoring are the customer's responsibility — check with your local codes department or HOA. However, we want to help you as much as we can to make it as pleasant a process as possible. We will send you everything you need to obtain your permit including engineer plans and master anchor plans to ensure a smooth process with your city. Rules differ by town — see our county-by-county permit guide.
  • For the ground: a level spot is best. We recommend having 4"x16"x16" solid concrete cap blocks on site if your ground isn't level. The driver levels the building at delivery using treated wood blocks/shims — or if you can have a 4 to 6 inch limestone pad, or a cement slab, that works beautifully too!

What size shed should I get?

Choosing a Size

It depends on what you're storing:

  • 10x16 to 12x20 — full workshop, ride-on mower, lots of storage
  • 12x24 and up, or a Portable Garage — a vehicle, boat, or large equipment

Compare sizes side-by-side on our Inventory & Pricing page, or design your building in 3D to see it to scale.
