We came across the website for Wellmade when searching for options of creating an outdoor office/gym for our house in the east bay. It was helpful that the company was from the area and we were able visit and preview some of the finished sheds nearby. were definitely impressed with the design and layout. It was a great experience working with team and we were impressed with how quickly it was built and assembled. Also, six months later after we noticed some issues with the skylights the team was very prompt and corrected the issue as covered by the warranty. Overall would highly recommend them

We are extremely happy with the Sunset shed and would definitely recommend Wellmade. The process went very smoothly. Our shed was finished in 6 business days. We were amazed at the quick progress each day. The crew started early and worked full days. They were very nice and communicated really well throughout the process. The shed is high quality and my wife and I are looking forward to working from home. It's nice to get a well designed product from a local Bay Area company.

We had a wonderful experience working with Wellmade. We went with the Presidio model to be used as a two person office and while we were initially concerned that it might feel tight for two workspaces it turned out to be quite comfortable. The project came out great and just as we had imagined. It looks exactly like it did in the pictures. We are also glad we went with some of the extra features like the heated floor and skylight.

We had a custom Sunset 120 sq ft shed made to match our house and I am absolutely thrilled with the experience. It was difficult to find the perfect option for our studio gym and after months of researching options, we contacted Wellmade. Our overall experience with Wellmade was wonderful. From our initial conversation with Ian, to the final touches on the installation, everything exceeded my expectations. Wellmade worked with us to pick out all of the finishes that would match our house and property. The project came out amazing and just as we had hoped. It looks exactly like it did in the rendering. We loved the cedar and metal look of the sheds but unfortunately it did not match our house. We decided to go with the same siding as our house (white hardie plank) and the same sconces.

The design of the shed is modern and sleek with clean lines that easily complement my home’s overall aesthetic. The large windows allow natural light to pour in, creating a bright and airy space. It’s a perfect blend of functionality and style, which makes it feel more like an extension of our home rather than just a shed.

The installation process was smooth and easy, thanks to the clear instructions provided by Masha, the project manager. The team was efficient and friendly, and it only took a few days to build. Masha was great to work with. Her communication and attention to detail was very helpful.

Overall, I highly recommend Wellmade for anyone looking for a high-quality, stylish, and functional backyard structure. What we love most about the shed is how versatile the space is. Whether you’re looking for a home office, art studio, or just a cozy place to relax, this shed fits the bill. I’ve transformed mine into a home gym.

The process for securing a 120 square-foot office shed in my backyard in Berkeley was seamless with Wellmade. Everything from my initial contact by phone to the final installation was efficient and pleasurable. The dream team of Tim, Tim, and Alexander completed the entire build in one week. They were cordial, diligent, and skilled.

If you are looking for a high quality, beautifully designed, and reasonably priced shed or ADU I sincerely recommend Wellmade and their fabulous prefabs!

Hello!

I am writing this from inside my Wellmade shed. Less than two weeks ago these same geographical coordinates were just an underperforming bald spot in my backyard. How did I get here, how did I feel along the way and what do I think of my sassy new Twin Peaks work from home office, sanity hut, and sweat lodge? Read on!

I was red pilled into the world of prefab via the Sunset Breeze House back in 2012. I won’t bore you with the details, suffice it to say I fell in love with the idea of a well made modern house that could be built off site and assembled on property.

But like for a lot of people, the idea of putting a Breeze House on a flat, expansive lot here in Marin was just never going to happen. If I was going to dream, I was going to have to dream smaller.

Cut to April 2024. After moving to San Rafael we found ourselves in a house we absolutely loved, but was missing one very important thing — a place to work. At long last, I had my chance to dip my toe, and only my toe, into the world of modern prefab.

I knew I wanted a small shed. I knew I wanted it to feel like a real space. And I knew if I kept to 120 square feet, I wouldn’t need a permit. So the only real question became, who would build it? Actually the question became who would assemble it. Because most shed makers hand you off to someone they don’t really know or they leave you to fend for yourself and find your own contractor. 🤮

This, along with really lovely looking buildings, is what sets Wellmade apart. They build the unit and they assemble the unit. The right hand talks to the left. The left hand talks to the right. And sales talks to project management who, in turn, talk to the guys onsite. Not only can you go and see the factory and the materials, you can also weigh in on the materials and even make requests for special materials if that’s your thing.

Along the way I was kept informed of what I had selected (time between purchase and installation can be a couple months which is plenty of time for me to forget where I wanted the outlets.) And I got daily updates from the crew and project management about what was completed and what was left to do once it building commenced.

The best thing is, once finished, you have the perfect little space that can be whatever you want. Which I think is probably the most important piece of all.

My wife and I are super-stoked with our Sunset shed from Wellmade. The entire experience was positive and we’re really pleased with the build quality and aesthetics of the shed.

The thing I want to emphasize most is the simplicity of the entire process. Most house projects we’ve done in the past have been friction filled. We’ve had to coordinate with various vendors, stress over myriad project details, and research materials without really having confidence in what we’re deciding. I can’t think of one house project that hasn’t had delays because of the difficulty in having the stars perfectly align for all the above (everyone is available, all materials are secured, all plan details are locked down).

Working with Wellmade on our shed was the complete opposite. My wife called it “instant gratification”. We had a couple simple video calls to walkthrough the space and discuss some details. I visited the WellMade office to look at the floor model. Once we decided to pull the trigger and schedule the date we filled out a simple spec sheet for things like wood color, window orientation, air conditioning, etc. When the start date came it was 5 and half days until the shed was done. The crew was amazing, hard working and not at all disruptive. When they finished there wasn’t a trace of construction debris which speaks volumes about their respect for a client’s property.

In the end, we have a quality home office / guest shed that aligns with our aesthetic sensibilities and we got it done with no stress or headaches. Thank you Masha, Andre and Sergey.

Wellmade has done an outstanding job in building my backyard office. The entire experience, from start to finish, was remarkably trouble-free and exceeded my expectations.

I'd like to give a special shout-out to the installation crew led by Sergei for their exceptional quality of work. Their attention to detail and craftsmanship have resulted in a backyard office that I'm truly proud of and excited to use.

Additionally, I want to particularly commend Project Manager Masha for her excellent communication throughout the entire process. Her responsiveness and clarity before, during, and after the installation were invaluable. It made the whole experience smooth and stress-free.

Thank you again for your outstanding work and customer service. I am thoroughly satisfied with the new backyard office, and I would not hesitate to recommend Wellmade to anyone looking for similar services.
