Frequently Asked Questions
See some of our most commonly asked questions below.
DO YOU OFFER FREE QUOTES?
Yes we do supply free designs & quotes. Simply get in touch with our friendly team via the contact us page or phone (02) 7209 4210 & we can supply you with quote. Alternatively, you can design your own shed via our online designer which will give you an instant quote for your shed kit. We also offer site inspections by a qualified shed builder for those more difficult designs or projects.
HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE FOR MY SHED TO BE COMPLETED?
Once you place your order with Upspec, our kits take approximately 6-8 weeks to be engineered, manufactured & delivered to site. Our building team will be onsite not long after to begin construction. Construction time varies depending on the size & design of your structure. Construction timeframes can also be heavily impacted by weather. Our team can advise you of your project timeline once your delivery date is confirmed. If your project requires council approval this does take some time also.
DO YOU OFFER WARRANTIES?
Every structure built by Upspec is backed by our 24 month construction warranty. This covers any issues that may arise from construction faults e.g leaking gutter. However this does not cover any damages caused by weather or human error. Every structure supplied by Upspec comes with a minimum 20-year structural warranty against any structural defects that may occur & materials backed by a BlueScope warranty, this does not include faults caused by weather or human error.
AREN'T ALL SHEDS THE SAME THING?
There are many factors that make a home improvement structure or shed different in price, these can include: Use of Australian or imported steel – Upspec only uses Australian made BlueScope steel. Site specific engineering for wind & terrain categories – All our structures are individually, site specific, designed & engineered. Customization options – Upspec have no standard size or style, we design exactly what you require with a huge range of customisation options including: eave overhang, mezzanine floors, dividing walls etc Supply only verse whole project management – Unlike most shed suppliers we don’t just sell you the kit and supply you a list of builders to follow up. We are the builders so you deal with 1 company through out the whole project. Supply of engineering & construction warranties.
ARE YOUR PRICES FIXED?
When we supply you a proposal for your project we try to include everything upfront in your quote so you have no surprises mid-project, if for some reason we encounter an unforeseen issue that wasn’t, we will always supply a quote before proceeding with any changes. We always keep you informed & our pricing upfront.
HOW DO I PAY YOU?
We endeavour to make paying for our products & services as simple as possible. We have a range of payment methods to suit your chosen method of payments including direct deposit, online credit card or bank cheque. We also have finance options through HandyPay
WHEN WILL I HAVE TO MAKE PAYMENTS?
Our payment schedules differ depending on your project type, however, we break up all our payments so you are only paying for what you receive e.g deposit (to book in & procure engineering), manufacture (for manufacture of your structure), delivery (prior to delivery) on frame completion (once the frame is built) & on final completion. We will never ask for full payment of your structure upfront or for any money where you see no value. As the payments are spread out over the duration of the project it makes things easier for your cash flow!
CAN YOU TAKE CARE OF COUNCIL APPROVAL?
Yes we certainly can. We do the hard work & paperwork for you including drafting of proposed site plans & elevations, completing Statement of Environmental Effects & Waste management plan, all engineering drawings, lodging your DA application & engaging a certifier for the Construction/Occupation certificates. We also first look at possibilities of CDC approval before going through the DA process.
DO YOU SUPPLY DIY KITS?
We can supply shed kits to most areas of NSW in DIY form. A construction manual will be supplied & we can offer a consultation service by a qualified builder if required at an additional cost.

Message From Our Founder
To Our Customers
I’ve been in the shed and building industry for almost 20 years and I’ve seen the same problems come up, time and time again. Sheds being thrown up by unlicensed builders, poor workmanship, zero project management and clients left to chase approvals or sort out the mess themselves. Too often, shed kits were sold with no real support behind them.
I started Upspec Steel Buildings to do things properly & to set a higher standard in the industry. Our team handles everything in-house, from design and council approvals to construction. Using licensed trades and high-quality Australian-made materials. We’re here to take the stress out of the process and deliver a result you can rely on, without the runaround.
