Wellmade - San Leandro, California

Wellmade was absolutely amazing from start to finish!!! From sales, accounting to the contractors building our Lombard. I spent months and months meeting with different companies and Wellmade by far was the best, hence why we went with them. Wellmade made the most sense for us not only cost wise, but they were prompt, responsive and knowledgeable. We loved that everything was “in house” so we didn’t need to hire four different people for one project. The contractors were such hard amazing workers, so clean, respectful and quiet. And they finished the job early! Would highly recommend this company!!

I had been looking at a lot of shed options for a couple years and never came across one that had all the elements I was looking for until I found the Presideo by Wellmade. You can tell a lot of thought was put into the design and construction. They use top grade materials for the build and the process from start to finish was seamless. The crew was professional and cleaned up the job site every evening. I went with a pretty standard build with the exception of adding the solar powered skylight but you can customize as much as you want and they will work with you. It really feels more like an additional room rather than a shed. The unit is just sitting on dirt right now but landscaping will be done to tie it into the surroundings. The shed comes with a 5 year warranty but it feels like it will last a lifetime.

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 Wellmade crew just finished our Twin Peaks shed today and we are so excited for our new home office! The crew was amazing- friendly and courteous, cleaned up well, and finished ahead of schedule. It feels very high quality and looks gorgeous. We had considered building an extension onto our house but got intimidated by the lengthy and expensive permitting, planning, and building process. We’re so glad we found Wellmade and got our “extension” so quickly, for a fraction of the price. Highly recommend this company!

Absolutely in awe with our new backyard unit. We chose a Presidio to have a relaxing space where to listen to jazz records, read and enjoy a drink. It looks amazing and it was built in just 5 days! So impressed with the construction team - professional hard workers, respectful and considerate.
The end to end experience has been absolutely amazing. Highly recommended!

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.

Highly recommend. The whole process was fantastic. From Ian helping us navigate Oakland’s building codes, to Masha coordinating the build to Kiri, Kirill, and Colin putting up the structure in 6 days, it felt like a premier service. And the Shed is exactly what we were hoping for! I appreciate the flexibility they offered to make small atheistic changes despite it being pre-fabricated. It looks custom. The quality is great, all at a reasonable price. Additionally, I appreciate their work with a local electrician who ran electrical all the way under our house without an additional charge.

If you are in the market for a small shed or ADU, you found it.
