Dunn #13: 10 X 20 Side Lofted Barn

We purchased a shed a year ago at the Princeton, NC location and I want to share the experience. We visited and, while we did not see what we wanted on the lot (and there are a diverse number of designs in the lot), we took a look at build quality and were pleased with what we saw. We sat down with Mackenzie (a really nice person) to design a building and this is where our experience really begins. She helped design exactly what we needed, answered all of our questions, made positive suggestions, and was completely honest. What she did not do was to try to sell us things we did not want or need. Her quote was very competitive. She kept us informed as to building progress and delivery date. She even sent me a Christmas note. I met the owner while waiting for my shed to arrive and he also is very customer oriented.

The building was delivered on the day it was promised. The driver placed it exactly where I wanted it, leveled it, made sure the window and door operated properly (he adjusted the door), and made sure I was happy before he left. Another great person to work with.

Here are my shed observations a year later: very well built, all quality straight wood, square and level, no sags or squeeks. Shelving and mounting brackets were easy to install as was vinyl plank flooring and a solar/battery fan. There is no rust on any of the hinges, brackets, or nail heads. Support materials are quality. It looks good. My neighbor purchased a larger shed with electrical and insulation from Hinton before I did and he is very happy with it.

Summary: quality product, quality people, fair price (lower than others I looked at prior to my purchase), easy to customize, and they still consider you a customer after purchase and delivery. I have sent two others to Hinton and they are happy with their experiences. Alot of companies sell sheds and I cannot speak on how they do business. I will say that the drive to Hinton and working with Mackenzie are worth your time and they will do their best to provide exactly what you need and deliver it in a reasonable amount of time.

over all I was well satisfied with my experience at Hinton Builders in Princeton. My initial contact with the personnel at the office was great. They were very professional and kept me informed as to the status of my building. When the installation time came the crew was fast and timely. My only downside was the time between the purchase and the actual installation, quite long, also the crew did a poor job of picking up dropped screws. After they left I picked up around 20 screws that could have been in my tires. Suggest the use of a magnet tool.

Purchased a 10x16 from Hinton back in March. Jamie was wonderful to work with very responsive. My building was a year old when I purchased it and I have had it 4 months so far and still can not find any fault in the build quality. I did the rent to own 90 days same as cash even though I had already planned to get my own financing, I did this trying to make sure no one else purchased it before I could get it financed. I was a little skeptical looking at reviews I seen on the rent to own agency but it all turned out ok and I financed it through my bank and paid off the rent to own agency with no issues. I would not hesitate to purchase again from Hinton Buildings but get my own financing first and pay them in full at time of purchase. The guys that set it up and tied it down did an awesome job. Happy Customer!!
