Post and beam sheds are expensive. A well built standard 10' x 12' post and beam shed kit is around $2500 to $3000.

If you are going to have it built for you, it will cost several hundred more. A decent sized custom built post and beam shed can run upwards of $5000 depending on the siding, windows, doors, trim, roof, etc...

The Complete Post & Beam Plans & Buyer's Guide was written based on over 30 years of post and beam shed and barn construction. In fact I am typing this from my 16' x 20' custom post and beam office building right now.

This is not just a set of blueprints or drawings and a stock list. You will get advice on what materials to use depending on the purpose of your building and actual photos of every step from foundation to exterior trim.
