Pete shared his experience after a major storm:

“I couldn’t believe how strong this shed actually is. It took the hit and sustained practically no damage, just slightly wrinkled flashing and some scuffing on some shingles.”

Tuff Shed vs. Flood

Larry’s extra-sturdy shed faced a 50-year flood in Texas—and came out nearly unscathed.

“It came through the flood unbelievably well. After the water receded, I just opened the doors, aired it out, scrubbed off the stains—and it’s just like new again.”

Now that’s Tuff!
