This month we at Valley Structures are excited to announce that we have made some new and exciting changes to our Economy line of storage sheds. This line has been popular ever since we introduced it last year. These barns will offer you the same amount of storage space at a reduced cost. They are available in the Barn and Cottage style. You will be able to add, change, or move options if you would like based on your needs or backyard requirements . For instance, if you need a loft for additional storage or reinforced flooring, we can add these options to better suit your needs. On the taller sided buildings, you have the option of placing your doors in the side of the structure.

Here are just a few of the specs:

LP Smartside Silver Tech siding, painted to your choice of color, 5/8 plywood flooring, one window standard.

They will be available in eight, ten, and twelve foot widths and up to twenty feet in length.

As with all of our other sheds, we manufacture each one at our plant located in Dayton, Va here in the beautiful Shenandoah Valley. Every Economy Shed is constructed with the same attention to detail that our standard sheds include. We have a large inventory at our sales office in Penn Laird, Va. which is always open to the public. Stop by or give us a call anytime to schedule your shed delivery!

Fair time is upon us once again! (It's hard to believe how fast time flies) We will have our buildings on location so be sure to stop by and see us! We will have someone there manning the display who can help you figure out what would work best for your farm or back yard storage.

Here is a little info on the Rockingham County Fair from their website.

——–

The first Rockingham County Fair was held at the Linville Ball Park, August 31 – September 3, 1949. Many smaller fairs were held before 1949 at Ed's Park at Rawley Springs, in Harrisonburg on the Whitesel-Sit lot, and at the present location of Memorial Stadium. From 1950-1951, the fair was four days long, from 1952-1963, five days long, and since 1964, the fair has run for six days.
 
The fair has been held at the present site on US Rt. 11 since 1980.
 
The fairgrounds currently account for 111 acres of land, including a 21,000-square-foot exhibit hall. In addition, the fairgrounds include a barn complex with more than 80,000 square feet under roof, providing for a capacity of hundreds of hogs, sheep, goats, beef cattle, and dairy cattle; a farm museum; a building for horticulture, flowers and farm crop displays; a building for poultry/rabbit exhibits; and numerous food concession buildings run by local civic organizations.
 
There is also a 4,000 seat grandstand, which seats an additional 2,500 at ground level. There is parking on the grounds for over 7,000 vehicles, with parking capacity expanding in 2014.
 

A product that we offer, besides our storage sheds, that many people don't know about is the Carolina Carport. We have been a dealer with them for over five years now and have been very happy with the quality and service they provide. They provide an excellent way to protect your vehicles or equipment from the damaging sun or winter elements. You can fully customize your order with just the basic carport or choose to have it fully enclosed as a garage unit with roll up doors etc. Installation of your carport on your level lot is also included in the price.

These days, when it comes to our food, more and more people are moving towards sustainable solutions for growing their own gardens and raising their own animals. We like to know where our food is coming from and how it was handled during the manufacturing process.

A lot of folks here in the Shenandoah Valley are beginning to raise their own chickens for the eggs they produce. There are a wide variety of benefits to this and here are just a couple to consider. You get fresh, healthy, organic eggs right in your own backyard that are rich in color, taste much better, and are healthier than any store bought egg. Chickens are also great for your garden in lots of ways, especially during the off-season (who doesn't love a little help in the garden?). They eat the grubs and bugs in the dirt that aren’t great for your plants, and fertilize the soil. They are a low maintenance animal so you won't be spending a lot of time taking care of them.

Here at Valley Structures, we are now offering chicken coops to give you a helping hand in getting started with your own flock of poultry. The chicken coop that is pictured is a 6×8 and has nesting boxes and perches that you can easily access just by lifing the outside access door, a small chicken door and ramp, two windows, a single door, and a drop vent in the back. These units provide a safe shelter for the chickens to lay their eggs while staying protected from any outside predators and give you an easy way to gather the eggs daily.

Let us know how we can best serve you! 

Another new addition to our lineup this Spring is our Dog Kennel. Over the years we have had many requests for these units. We build these with the same quality and attention to detail as all of our other storage structures and as always, you are free to choose the color and size to complement your home and lawn.  The standard options on each kennel will depend on size, but options offered include single door, dog door, dog boxes, chainlink fence, and composite floor. 

A kennel allows you to keep your pet contained without having it on a chain while at the same time protect them from the dangers of the neighborhood. It also will keep the dog from running in to a busy road or encountering other potentially dangerous animals. It allows the dog to spend time outdoors while providing a source of shade and shelter when necessary. If constructed to suit the needs of the dog, it keeps the dog safely secured on the property while providing area for exercise.

Our kennels are already proving to be a customer favorite. Stop by and take a look to see how we might be able to suit your needs!

We at Valley Structures are excited to announce the addition of our new Economy Line Sheds to our product line. These buildings will offer you the same storage space at a reduced cost. The Economy Line buildings are available in the Barn or Cottage style in sizes ranging from 6X8 to 12X28. The Barn is available in 3 side wall heights, 4', 6', or 7'. The Cottage is available in a 7' or 8' high side wall. All 8' wide Economy Line buildings will come with a single door, one window and a shingled roof. The 10' and 12' wide buildings will have double doors standard. The buildings will have 5/8 inch pressure treated T1-11 siding and 2X4 construction. Here at Valley Structures, we try to provide storage buildings to suit your needs. Whether you're looking for a custom designed building or something from our new Economy Line, we are here to fill your storage needs. 

Spring has sprung and this is when we all begin to get to work in our yards and gardens! Whether you currently store all of your tools in the garage or have them scattered here and there, we can help. A garden shed gives you a convenient spot to store all of your mowers, tillers, rakes, etc. 

There are a few things to consider as you begin shopping for your shed. Everyone has a different style, budget, storage needs, and backyard space. There is no "one size fits all" building. A taller wall allows you to hang rakes and bikes. A loft provides space for items you don't use on a regular basis. Shelves and workbenches give you a spot to work. On larger structures, having more than one door is often useful to give you another access point into the shed in case a mower or some other item is blocking an entry. Having a few windows will allow light and ventilation. We offer many additional options to allow you to customize your shed to fit your exact needs.

The easiest way to start is to stop by and browse all of our different styles. We keep our lot full of different sizes, colors, and options.
