"We recently purchased two 85” televisions for our church sanctuary and knew their installation required an expert touch for both safety and aesthetics. Seeking a reputable professional, we consulted Costco, who directed us to Angi’s List—where we found Real Handy Handyman. From the start, his professionalism and responsiveness stood out. He promptly replied to our inquiry and offered to visit our church before beginning any work. This on-site consultation helped him assess the space, discuss our needs, and provide a clear, detailed proposal tailored to our requirements. His attention to detail immediately gave us confidence. On installation day, he arrived punctually and fully prepared. The televisions were mounted quickly and securely, with wiring expertly concealed and great care taken to protect our sanctuary’s finishes. Throughout, Real Handy Handyman demonstrated impressive skill, thoroughness, and care. His communication was proactive, and keeping us informed."

Customers say: True professional

"We found McCormick home builders through Angie’s list. They were not one of our original contacts, but they contacted us and came out to give us a quote. Matteo was extremely helpful, informative, honest, and gave us reasonable realistic prices, and did not try to inflate the prices or pressure us in anyway. We felt very comfortable with him immediately. We felt like he was a member of the family that we could just talk to and ask questions he was very personable. He gave us his contact number in case we had other questions and he was always available when we needed him for any type of questions or concerns. Mateo‘s team did a beautiful job. They were fast. They were efficient. They cleaned up beautifully. They did a wonderful job. They were very considerate of our time our needs and our neighbors. They were an absolute pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend Matteo from McCormick home builders for any home building projects, and we will be calling him again in the future!"

Pole Barn Builders questions, answered by experts

The most common slope, or roof pitch, for a shed is 4:12 or four inches of height for every horizontal foot. For areas that experience heavy snow loads, a steeper roof of 6:12 or 9:12 is best. 

Choose a barn door with an extra two to three inches on either side of the frame. The width of the barn door will depend on the type and placement of your track, but in most cases, an additional inch or two will do the trick.

Whether it is better to buy or build a chicken coop depends on your priorities, primarily cost versus time and effort. Building your own chicken coop can be significantly more budget-friendly, often costing about half as much as buying a pre-made one. If you have the time and skills, building a coop from scratch is the most economical option. However, if your time or skills are limited, buying a kit and hiring a handyperson to assemble it can be more cost-effective than hiring a carpenter to build a custom coop from scratch. If you want a perfectly constructed coop without sacrificing your own time and energy, buying one is the easiest choice.

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

The foundation for a pole barn should be at least 36 inches thick to ensure that the piers won’t shift from frost heave.
