Before you order a shed

What to Check Before You Buy a Shed

Even when a building permit is not required, local placement and zoning rules can still apply. These are the main items worth confirming before your shed is scheduled.

Permit Size Thresholds

In many Juab County cities, sheds 200 sq. ft. or smaller do not require a building permit. Some cities have additional site-approval requirements or exceptions, which are explained below.

Setbacks and Placement

Check required distances from property lines, easements, fences, streets and other structures. These rules can vary by city and zoning district.

Height, Design and HOA Rules

Some municipalities regulate accessory-building height or placement, and a homeowners association may have additional requirements. HOA approval is separate from city approval.

Site Conditions and Access

Slope, retaining walls, utilities, drainage, overhead clearance and backyard access can affect where the shed can be placed and how it can be built.

Eureka City

Eureka City Storage Shed Building Permit Requirements:

Eureka City provides current building-permit information and lists storage sheds among the types of structures that require a building permit. Because the city does not publish a simple shed-size exemption on its permit page, we recommend confirming the current requirements with Eureka City before construction.

*Note: Most Utah cities do not require a building permit for a detached residential shed that is 200 sq. ft. or smaller. However, we have not confirmed that this exemption applies in Eureka City, so homeowners should verify the current requirement with Eureka City before building or installing a shed.

      Common questions

      Juab County Shed Permit FAQs

      Do I usually need a building permit for a shed that is 200 sq. ft. or smaller?

      In many cases, no. Many Juab County cities do not require a building permit for a residential shed that is 200 sq. ft. or smaller. Some cities may have a site-approval, zoning or utility-related exception, so check the detailed city information above.

      Do setbacks still apply if I do not need a building permit?

      Yes. Being exempt from a building permit does not automatically exempt a shed from zoning, setback, easement or placement requirements. Check the section for your city and verify current requirements before building.

      What if I add electrical or plumbing to my shed?

      Electrical, plumbing or mechanical work can trigger separate permit requirements even when the shed itself would otherwise be exempt from a building permit. Confirm those requirements with your city before work begins.

      Do HOA requirements still apply?

      Yes. HOA requirements are separate from city building and zoning rules. Homeowners are responsible for confirming any HOA requirements for shed size, placement, colors, roof style or other design details.

      Can Apex help me choose a shed after I confirm my local requirements?

      Yes. Once you know the space and local restrictions you are working with, we can help you compare shed styles, sizes, doors, windows and options for your property.
