""The project was top notch. Not only did they consistently show up on time, but they finished the project early and were willing to fix unknown problems as they were discovered. The project took 3 days longer than originally scheduled. They stayed and fixed everything. These people were great to work with. Final project turned out great!""

"Luke was a gift! He responded quickly to my call and was able to start painting two days later. He was professional, knowledgeable, on time and always cognizant of the fact that I was working from home while he was painting. He meticulously painted my entire house and it looks amazing. I highly recommend Luke, you will not be disappointed."
After.. what an amazing difference!

"We had a lot of rain.  They even worked in the rain some of the time.  Donny and employees were extremely professional and always polite.   He had already scheduled a vacation and understandably did take it in July.
There was only 1 small misunderstanding about the ramp for the building.  The elevation was not gradual enough-- but Donny and "company" tore it down and redid the elevation of the ramp.  It is now perfectly suited for short people (and old).  LOL
He did communicate with me about  shelf heights, potting area, electrical receptacles, fan and light placement --also the deck, pergola and ramp as well as the makeover of the front porch and all the hand rails. In other words, everything. 
Every  time I called Donny and left a message he always called me back ASAP.   If he wasn't on phone, he talked to me then. This was greatly appreciated.
This is a very good, dependable company and I think anyone who hires them will be well satisfied.

Pole Barn Builders questions, answered by experts

The pro you need to hire to build your shed depends on the shed you purchase. A local handyman or general contractor can help build a prefab shed for you. However, if you’re looking for a custom shed, contacting a shed builder near you is the best option. Make sure you get quotes from 3 pros to decide on the best pro for your job. 

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. 

If you’re building a pole barn in place of a traditional home, lenders usually don’t offer traditional mortgages for these structures. You can also expect higher insulation costs and building permits may not be allowed in your area. Even if you’re just using a pole barn as storage or as a shelter for animals, these structures are less durable than steel buildings and require more maintenance.

Rather than using a common two-by-four piece of wood for a rafter, you probably will use two-by-six, two-by-eight, two-by-ten, or even two-by-twelve boards. Wider lumber is typically a better choice in a larger building as it provides more sturdiness. Some installers may use wider lumber for rafters near the edges of the roof, where the greatest stress occurs, and save money with narrower lumber toward the middle.

While it’s best to have access to large, healthy, strong trees in a safe position, treehouse living is still possible without them. Contractors can fit tree posts to build the structure onto or use posts as additional support alongside the trees themselves. If you’re in doubt about the suitability of the trees on your land, consult with a local treehouse builder before you start the project.
