Specialty Backyard Sheds

A fully custom solution for the space you need to make your life better.

Gone are the days when sheds were solely relegated to the role of storing lawnmowers and garden hoses. Instead, they have become blank canvases for creativity and innovation, offering endless possibilities for customization and personalization. Homeowners are increasingly recognizing the untapped potential for backyard sheds and are reimagining them as versatile extensions of their living spaces.

Space That Fits My Needs

The rise of remote work and flexible lifestyles has increased demand for home offices and dedicated workspaces. With the need for privacy and separation between work and leisure, we are helping people see their backyard sheds as quiet retreats where they can focus and be productive without the distractions of the main house.

Space That Matches My Style

Tailor-Made Sheds Since 1988

Born on the farm, we know barns. MDB was founded in 1988 by Steve and April Swartz to provide quality backyard sheds and storage solutions for Michigan’s residential and agricultural communities.

Still family-owned and operated today, we are Western Michigan’s #1 choice for custom-designed backyard structures to suit every need- office, gym, studio, guest space, school room, storage, and so much more.

Our History & Legacy ⇒

FOUNDATION PREP

Although your shed can sit anywhere that is remotely level, this beginning step is crucial for the longevity of your shed to prevent settling, which can lead to structure dysfunction and destruction over time.
