Scenic View Buildings

Today we are proud to present Scenic View, one of our valued partners. Scenic View offers a wide variety of gorgeous structures, guaranteed to meet your needs whatever they may be: from gazebos and backyard pavilions, to western-style or garden sheds, livable cabins, and even chicken coops, dog kennels, and run-in horse barns.

Gazebos and Pavilions

Nothing beats a Tennessee summer night spent in a Buildings Plus gazebo or pavilion. Whether you share the night with friends, family, or just the cicadas and tree frogs, it provides the perfect backyard oasis.

The experience is made substantially better by Scenic View add-on options, such as screening to keep the mosquitos out and the table clean. If you expect to use the space for reading or other relaxing activities, consider hanging a porch swing in the center instead. Otherwise, choose from a variety of available benches and other design options, such as flower boxes or a cupola with a weathervane. Fancy!

Cabins with White Pine Finished Interior

As you tour our lot full of sample buildings, they might feel a little bare. These buildings arrive on our lot with the studs visible, both to allow for any interior finishing you might want and to highlight the structural quality of our builds.

We can recommend top-tier services to help finish out any cabin, but Scenic View buildings in particular come with the option of a white pine finish. White pine is a gorgeous finishing material for the perfect combination of rustic and natural, and spacious and airy. Its light coloration helps expand the area, and white pine has a golden, honeyed look when sunlight hits it through your windows.

That makes this finish an ideal interior, opening the space and upgrading the feel with an understated but lovely look. If you choose a Scenic View building, be sure to take advantage of this finished interior option!

Western and Garden Sheds

Ever wanted to experience an old-timey saloon in your backyard? Scenic View’s Western sheds are a popular option, for enthusiasts and general interest alike.

Western sheds offer all of the same features as the other cabins and sheds available at Buildings Plus: reliable construction, custom options, and competitive pricing. What really makes them shine is that front face with the recognizably Old West design. Neighbors might think you pulled the structure right off of an 1800’s street and placed it in your backyard. After that, the possibilities are endless; of course, we can’t help but recommend that you deck it out with lights and a bar for drinks with friends on summer nights.

Of course if you’d prefer, garden sheds are a versatile option. The standard build comes with a pergola over the porch, perfect for climbing vines and hanging plants. Turn your humble flower garden into a paradise, with ample room to store all of your gardening tools and either work on new plans or gather a harvest.

Chicken Coops, Dog Kennels, and Horse Barns

The animals that help out around your household deserve nice living quarters in return. Scenic View offers structures designed to provide just that, without breaking the bank.

The run-in horse barns in particular compliment our Western sheds well, with ornate latches on the Dutch doors and a 5’ kick board, plus options for a tack room. The chicken coops are similarly nice digs, complete with cozy nesting boxes and plenty of space for a growing flock. They also have doors leading to an optional chicken run.

The dog kennels are excellent accommodations for man’s best friend. Heavy duty welded wire, chain, or tartar panels all keep your hound around without shutting him inside, while the spacious interiors give him plenty of room to ride out inclement weather or bed down for the night. These kennels are attractive and can be made to match your house.

Come on down to our lot and see some examples of these beautiful structures for yourself.

Spring Cleaning: Organize Your Outdoor Storage in a New Way

Spring Cleaning: a newly organized shed
Spring is finally coming; that means it’s time to “Marie Kondo” your backyard!

The birds seem to be singing a cheerier tune these past couple weeks, indicating that spring–and spring cleaning season–is on its way. When you hear “spring cleaning,” you may think of tedious sweeping and going through the same old bins that you know you’re going to stuff right back into a closet anyway. With Buildings Plus, you can turn that chore on its head. Our sheds can be your storage solution.

A new building in the backyard offers all the storage space you’ve been wishing you had, plus a fresh chance to organize all those things you could use if you only had access to them. All of our Amish-built sheds come with sturdy tongue-and-groove floors on five 4×4 skids, meaning you can store heavy machinery and tools without worry. Unlike our competitors, who usually have 3 skids, these floors won’t warp or buckle even if they get wet.

You can also customize the roofing and add TechShield insulation, which makes a huge temperature difference for your heat-sensitive supplies. If needed, all sheds can be fitted with electricity for lighting, temperature control, and power for your tools. In fact, our buildings can all be made cozy enough to live in. After all, our structures are built like a house, not a shed.

We also offer workbenches and shelving that can transform a simple shed into your dream storage solution. For all of the things you need to keep but not use daily, consider loft space. For the rest, you can have immediate access within arm’s reach all along the shed’s four walls.

Spring is a time of renewal and getting one’s life back in order after a cold, dark winter. Simplify your spring cleaning with a Buildings Plus shed, and use the extra time to get some work done in it!

Weather Protection

From the first lean-to to modern high-rises, little matters more to building owners than keeping out the weather. Weather protection is a direct result of build quality. If a construction project was rushed, or used cheap materials, or skipped steps in treatment… well, you’re probably not adequately protected from rain, much less the tougher weather Clarksville can get.

We’ve had a lot of stormy days in Clarksville lately, so by now you’ll know if your building is weather-protected. Have you seen stains on the corners of your ceilings? Damp basements, leaky attics, or condensation on windowsills are all bad signs, too. They can even lead to mold or rotting wood! Unfortunately, the only real weather protection you can get after construction are band-aid processes, to shore up warped foundation or insulate unprotected windows.

That’s why weather protection must be considered during the build process. At Buildings Plus, we offer superior construction quality from only local Amish communities and steel developers. Their finely-honed processes check that every joint, nail, and beam is up to code. Rest assured, our buildings will weather any storm.
