"They are currently finishing paint/staining our home, but I decided to go ahead and write my review since I received a request for information about their decking services.  We are extremely happy with everything that's been done. We had the outside of our rough-sawn cedar redone with solid color stain, and the wood screen porch/deck sealed.  They sprayed most of the rough-sawn cedar siding, which covered so much better than we'd done with rolling previously, and they were extremely careful about overspray.  They even painted our gutter to match, but always checked anything  first to make sure it was what we wanted.  I figured the screen porch would have to be cleared of furniture, etc. to clean the outside, but they told me I didn't need to.  I wondered if it they'd still get the black mildew off.  It looked even better than I hoped, the wood looked nearly brand new!  They know how to pressure wash! (I've tried it myself before, and wound up with 'fuzzy' wood.) They're currently working on sealing the wood surfaces such as screened porch, deck and railing.  As happy as we are with everything done so far, we can't wait to see the 'finished product'!  I will update when all is done, but we already know we will definitely be calling R&R for our next project!

"Brad came to our home and completely designed us a wonderful outdoor screened in porch that is attached to our house where we now spend the majority of our time, and also designed and remodeled our basement area to a beautiful living space/ game room that our guests really enjoy. He was prompt, thorough in his work and very knowledgeable and helped us pick out colors and themes. I would highly recommend his services."

"Loay Jabbar provided the information I needed quickly and clearly. I immediately signed up for full coverages for our two homes because of the discounts offered and because of the quality of service that Loay is saying and promising Choice Home Warranty provides to its customers. I have bad experiences with other home warranty companies so I am hoping I found the best company that would deliver the best service."

Barndominium Builders questions, answered by experts

Pole barns and carports are similar in that they rely on posts for support and are often not connected to a primary structure. The main difference between the two is that pole barns usually include walls that surround the entire perimeter of the structure, while carports generally remain open on three or four sides. It’s possible to insulate garage doors and even exterior walls on pole barns to create a comfortable workspace, and it’s a bit more secure for storage purposes. However, carports are more affordable.

Your foundation contractor will first need to remove the topsoil and any vegetation within 4 feet of the area around the barn. They’ll need to ensure they have clear access to the site to begin excavation, after which they can begin construction.

The most significant expense when building a barndominium is constructing the metal shell, which includes the roof, doors, and windows. Additional exterior components impacting the overall cost include metal siding and the concrete foundation.

The best lumber for building will be the strongest and most eco-friendly wood your budget allows. That being said, Douglas fir, pine, oak, and maple are all common building materials. Contractors will use a strong, inexpensive wood to frame a house or other structure and finer woods like mahogany for detail work. 

It may be tempting to DIY the construction of a swing set to save money, but we don’t recommend it. Since children will use the swing set, the entire system must be solid and safe, meaning the cost savings aren’t worth potentially endangering them. Plus, most DIYers will have to build their swing sets out of wood, which won’t last as long as metal or vinyl and introduces the risk of splinters. Instead, hire a local playground equipment installer to ensure the swing set is built safely and efficiently, setting up your kids for fun for years to come.
