"Al and his team have been fantastic in both service and workmanship. We needed a shower replaced in our rental home. He not only provided a number of options, but recommended ways to save money as well. The work project itself, Al made sure if there were any concerns we had, he addressed it promptly. We plan to use C&H for a number of other smaller handyman projects we need done both immediately and any others in the future."

"The project went better than expected. Dave was punctual, and very helpful with both my refrigerator install and connecting waterlines. I felt comfortable with him in my home. Dave was refreshingly honest and referred me to a dependable source to work on a project that was outside his expertise. I appreciate his willingness to accommodate me on a weekend."

"We hired McCormick Home Builders to remodel our living room, and we are beyond pleased with the result. The team was professional, worked efficiently, and Aris design ideas made a huge difference. The room feels so much brighter and more spacious. This was the best decision we made for our home, and we were already planning our next remodel with them."

"I cant say enough about Nucave construction. Ryan and his whole team were very professional. I remodeled my kitchen and was looking for some custom pieces. Ryan knew what I envisioned for my kitchen and really brought it to life. I was also very pleased on how quick they were able to get the work done. I had some last minute adjustments to my design. Ryan was on top of it and was able to bring someone in to get it done asap. I will be hiring them again for more work."

"I have known Jake personally for over 5 years but only recently had the privilege of utilizing his contracting services. My wife and I purchased our first home last year and needed a complete interior paint job as well as replacement of all vents, door fixtures, smoke/carbon dioxide detectors, and weather stripping for our front door. Despite being on a time crunch, Jake completely exceeded our expectations with his quality of work. Jake s recommendations on color and style looked amazing! He was knowledgable with regards to all the modern touches. If you are looking for high-quality work on your home, we highly recommend Jake Hill Construction."

"I own a second home in San Diego and recently hired Shiro Builders Group for a backyard renovation and bathroom remodel. After getting quotes from four different companies, I decided to move forward with Shiro because they were the most professional, responsive, and transparent from the beginning. The entire process was clean, organized, and well managed. The backyard transformation exceeded my expectations, and the bathroom remodel was completed with great attention to detail and quality craftsmanship. The crew was respectful, kept the site tidy, and maintained excellent communication throughout the project. What really stood out was Shir's involvement. As the owner, he was available when needed, answered questions promptly, and made sure everything was done correctly. The final result speaks for itself. The project was completed smoothly, on schedule, and with a level of quality that is hard to find. Highly recommended!"

Barndominium Builders questions, answered by experts

The term “cottage” is subjective, so there’s no rigid definition, but it generally refers to a small home with simple and purposeful architecture that embraces nature and focuses on charm over everything else. Cottages are typically 1 or 1 1/2-stories tall, usually with gabled roofs, and are built out of natural materials that help make the structure a part of the surrounding nature rather than something that stands out from it. A big part of what makes a cottage a cottage is the decor, which includes natural materials from the nearby area.

Trex is not stronger than wood, but it lasts longer than wood and is heavier. Trex holds up well to the elements and is resistant to termites thanks to its resilient composition of plastic, reclaimed wood, and sawdust. Trex decking is rot and warp-resistant, making it especially useful in areas that experience a lot of snow and rain.

It is almost always more affordable to buy an existing home than to build a new one. Building a home involves numerous costs, including labor, permits, inspections, utility hookups, and brand-new materials, finishes, and appliances. Additionally, new construction loans can have higher interest rates than traditional mortgages, and property taxes on new homes are often higher, increasing long-term costs. An exception is a DIY house build, which can be cheaper than buying an existing home if you do the labor yourself. While building is generally more expensive, a new custom home offers complete control over the layout and design. Furthermore, new construction is typically worth more than a comparable pre-owned home and may provide a better return on investment if sold quickly.

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.
