Directions:
Step 1
Clean the area where you want to build your storage shed, then remove all of the weeds, and dig up any installed poles or cables. Measure the area and mark a line with spray paint to separate the storage shed area from the pavers. Install 4 wooden posts, then pour cement and water on each hole where the posts are installed, attach some braces on each of them to keep them straight as you let the cement dry.

Step 2
Water the soil on the area where you’ll install the pavers so that they’re easier to dig. Grab your shovel and start digging the area, rake it, and flatten it with a tamper tool. Spread out your fabric weed blocker, then cut the paver base to the right size, and lay them on the area evenly. Pour some paver sand on top, then install pipes, and flatten the sand. Add more sand until the pipes are covered, then install the paver stones.
Step 3
Start building your storage shed, remove the braces attached to each post, then build the frame of your shed. Make sure to add a slanted wooden board on each frame to make them more sturdy. Then, start filling out the spaces in each frame with the boards with even spaces in between each one. Place a large thin wood on top of the shed for the roofing before you install an actual roof on top of it.
