We purchased our 10x12 shed from Hinton in June of 2024. So our ownership of the shed has been for over a year per the date above. We are happy with it and were able to clear our garage of lots of stuff!

I shopped around in the surrounding area from Smithfield to Kinston and ultimately chose Hinton due to selection and an excellent price.

We found dealing with Jamie very easy.
She was knowledgeable and helped us get our shed in a timely manner. The crew from Stalnaker who delivered the shed was also awesome (reviewed them already) and they capped our excellent experience.

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.
