Glick Woodworks knows that even the best Amish storage sheds need to rest upon a properly-prepared foundation. Over the years, we have settled upon what we feel is the most efficient, cost-effective, and durable method of constructing the necessary subsurface for the shed to rest upon.

Naturally, shed site preparation has to start with establishing a nice flat surface for our Amish storage sheds. This need for a level surface is complemented by the additional need to ensure that the installation site is properly drained so that there will be no issues.

Stone Pads by Glick Woodworks

Stone pads by Glick Woodworks are offered within 70 miles from our location only.

A level surface is accomplished by removing the topsoil in the area of planned installation and laying down a firm 4 to 5 inch deep bed of crushed stone, also known as a stone pad. The dimensions of this stone pad will extend approximately 1 foot outside the exterior walls of the shed in all directions. At Glick Woodworks we are proud to build our own stone pads to provide your structure with a quality foundation! This will keep the shed high and dry for years to come. Once this necessary amount of site preparation work is completed, it is time to actually bring in the shed for anchoring on the site.

Dave and Daniel Glick were very patient with my shed and process. I had stalled delivery of my shed a few times due to weather and neither time seemed to bother them. They wanted to make sure it was delivered and done right! This family company and whole process was one of the best decisions that I had made. They have what some companies are missing anymore, Integrity and good character. A perfect example of God fearing men! Thank you Glick family for my customer shed. Its not really a shed it looks more like a mini house to be honest.Buy from Glicks....You wont regret it!

The Pennsylvania Amish build an incredible, strong, tight quality shed. And that's who these guys are! Easy to work with, very reasonable and competitive on prices, and simple easy going folks. You're not going to find a better shed out there. I've done business for 35 years with a wide variety of companies, glick woodworks is simply the Best of the Best. I wish they would have built my house! You can tell through their work that they believe they are serving both God and man, and it's clear that they are achieving their goals. I just can't say enough positive things about these folks.

My shed was moved into the neighbor's yard & was pinned up against a tree while hanging over the creek that runs behind my house. I talked to David several times & we were also texting at 4 am. David sent out Daniel & Caleb to move the shed back. These two guys were AMAZING !! They were able to place the shed back onto the pad without any further damage. Daniel also repaired the vinyl siding that was damaged from the hitting the tree. Words can describe how grateful we are to be able to save our shed. So if you looking for a great reliable contractor these guys are who you need to contact. Look no further & give them a call.

A++ I couldn't be happier with the craftsmanship and the timeliness of the project. We had a shed built and a stand alone garage (20x24) with scissor truss and 8" vinyl siding. Daniel was phenomenal to work with. He was responsive to any questions I had, kept me up to date on any progress without me asking for it. He also went the extra mile to find materials that matched our house the best. His crew worked tirelessly and completed the project on time, and within the budget. Would recommend Daniel, his crew and Glick Woodworks to anyone looking to build a shed or garage.
