"They came out quickly to give a very competitive quote for putting metal trim around windows on my house. They communicated very well. They were there first thing in the morning the day of the work and were done quicker than I expected. I'll definitely hire them for more jobs."

"We have been very impressed with our experience with Roof Tech. We definitely were not the easiest clients as we had a complicated project and were out of state trying to coordinate things for the first half of the time but Mike and Toni did an amazing job. We were also specifically impressed with the kindness and respectfulness of all their crews that came into our home. We did have some minor miscommunications at times but communication is hard and those issues were likely just as much (or more) our fault than theirs. They were always prompt to resolve any minor miscommunications and overall we were incredibly happy with the end result."

"They did a fantastic job on my soffit and fascia. A complete soffit replacement and exterior painting. They did so good in fact that I ended up using them for some cabinet painting and drywall repair. When we get our money up, we plan to use them for an entire LVP flooring install. Definitely would recommend for anything on your to do list!"

"Absolutely phenomenal! Luis and his crew were polite, honest, and professional. My husband and I have never experienced working with a contractor before, so we prayed for God to put the right people in our path, and He answered our prayers tremendously. We were clueless about materials and how much things should cost on average, but Luis guided us step-by-step. He and his crew built a second walk-in closet for our master bedroom. The work looks so professional, it looks as if the closet is a part of the house’s original design, very seamless! Part of our back porch was used for the space, and one of the living room windows had to be removed. We’re still in awe of how it looks like a window was never there! We plan on using BetaPro in the near future, and highly, HIGHLY recommend this business to anyone!!"

"Could not have asked for better experiences with this company. I have used them several times for various jobs. Work is always completed timely, efficiently, with professionalism and expertise. I found Micah through a different method of advertising and have never regretting contacting him. I live in an older home that has some unique repair issues. He has always met those challenges. I would never use anyone else."

"Jason and his team were awesome. He had other jobs going on but took the time to work on my mother's house @ afternoon until finished. I'm hiring him for a job at my house and have a number of other customers for him to call for work they need done. Jason is a man of his word and does great work."

Barndominium Builders FAQs, answered by experts

Barns and barndominiums are most commonly painted red, like barns depicted in movies and paintings. The practice of painting barns red dates back to America’s colonial days, when new farmers would borrow the European practice of mixing linseed oil with ferrous oxide to coat the barns in order to protect them from the elements, leaving the structures with a red color.

It is recommended that you check with your local building official on barn building requirements and rules, since size restrictions vary greatly from region to region based on what your property is zoned for. Some cities limit barn construction depending on if your property is residential or commercial. The three main factors your building commission will evaluate are:

  • Height and lot coverage: How tall your barn is and how much of your total property it occupies

  • Setback: Distance between barn and property line

  • Easement: Legal right for another owner to access another’s property

Yes, barndominiums are designed to withstand strong weather and severe storms if they are built properly by trained professionals. Most barndominiums are made up of a steel structure that can protect a building from winds of up to 150 miles per hour and resist a variety of weather conditions without a major risk of structural damage to the exterior, foundation, or frame.

Yes, barn doors can be too heavy, although the limitation is usually imposed by the mounting hardware you buy and not your home’s framing, unless you’re building an unusually wide door. To keep the weight down, you can opt for 1-by material rather than 2-by material, and choose a softwood like pine rather than a hardwood like maple or oak. Check the weight limits on your mounting hardware, and always attach your door track to studs rather than to drywall anchors.

The lifespan of a barn is typically 40 to 60 years, but with skillful construction and proper maintenance, it can last up to 100 years. The actual lifespan depends on several factors, including the barn type, materials, usage, and climate. For example, the posts of a pole barn should last 50 years or longer, but if the structure is used for livestock in a rainy climate, it may rot within the first decade. Custom designs with high-end materials tend to last the longest. To get the best estimate for your barn's lifespan, you should consider its material type and intended use.
