"So Cal Builders & Design Inc made the entire building process stress-free. They were transparent with costs, delivered work on time, and ensured every design detail was perfect. I couldn’t be happier with the final results."
Completely renovating both the guest and master bathrooms. In the master bathroom, we're installing a spacious walk-in shower featuring dual black-finished shower heads, elegant floating benches, and marble wall tiles. Meanwhile, the guest bathroom will have a sleek built-in tub and stylish hexagon tiles.
This project involved adding a new master bathroom to the existing house. The shower features sleek white subway tiles complemented by striking black fixtures and shower door hardware. The bathroom floor is adorned with elegant white marble tiles, providing a seamless and luxurious finish. A white shaker vanity topped with a white marble countertop completes the space, creating a clean and sophisticated look.

"The KN Remodeling team did an excellent job at our home completely remodeling 3 bathrooms, painting our entire home and rebuilding a huge planter outside. We trusted them in our home while we are out of town almost the entire time. We hired them back to do additional work in our home that they did quickly and expertly. The team was professional, very friendly, worked quickly, quietly, cleanly, and I would highly recommend them."

"I contacted AXE about building an ADU behind my main house. Tomer was very helpful as I had no idea where to begin. AXE handled everything from beginning to end, including pulling plans during the pandemic which was a very involved process. They were attentive and accommodating; always ensuring we were happy with the progress and also keeping us updated on the next steps in the project. Once we were in the final stages, the AXE team found everything we wanted from our blue cabinet paint color to my wifeâ  s dream barn style sink. Weâ  re beyond happy with the results."

"I was totally wrong in thinking that this company would do a good job because in reality they did something spectacular, the entire work team was very kind and attentive to our family, we are a family that does not open the door to anyone but we decided to trust American Professional Builders, Jose was very friendly and understanding with all of our needs, he always tried to adapt the work to each one's style, my children's rooms are comfortable, elegant and at the same time they can play and have fun with the design that Jose created especially for them, our yards are safe for the children and at the same time we can enjoy a weekend with the wonderful Deck with fireplace and kitchen, the pool with games that Jose recommended and that he built is beautiful and fun for the family, the type of tile he used looks luxurious and the pavers he installed with the artificial grass around it were exactly what we dreamed of, we are going to build an ADU soon and we are already working on the pl"

"After starting the remodeling of my Townhouse I hired Local Home Services owned by Derek Bingley, who did the work. Derek had the knowledge and skill necessary to do all of the work I requested and more. The work he did was of the highest quality. Derek was also reliable, and always came when he said he would. Derek also was very neat, and cleaned up as he worked, which is especially important when one's home is the work space. Derek did what he said he would in a very speedy and accurate manner. Derek was the best of anyone I hired in completing my remodel. I am so thankful that he was able to squeeze me into his schedule and to complete the work I needed done. I highly recommend Derek, and Local Home Services for work that you need done. I could not have completed the work in my Townhouse with Derek and Local Home Services. Derek and Local Home Services prices were reasonable, and the level of skill, experience and the finished result were exceptional. Derek is the best. Thank you so much Derek and Local Home Services!"

"After dealing with frequent roof repairs, we finally decided on a complete replacement for our Livermore home. Avi kept us informed every step of the way, and the finished roof exceeded our expectations. It's made a noticeable difference during hot summer days."

Barndominium Builders FAQs, answered by experts

The difference between a pole barn and a stick-built barn is in the construction. Large poles in the ground provide support for pole barns. For stick-built barns, 2-by-4 or 2-by-6 lumber (known as sticks) create a frame around load-bearing beams. Stick-built construction is far more popular for residential homes. Pole barns are more cost-effective because they require fewer materials and less labor.

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

In the U.S., original and converted carriage houses are most often found in New England, New York, and other parts of the Northeast. New construction carriage houses can be found across the country, and are often added to properties with Colonial-style homes for additional living, storage, or work space, although they can be found in many different styles.

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. 

You don’t typically need a permit to build a shed, but it’s best to check with your local city clerk to make sure before you start the project. Every town, city, and municipality can have different rules when it comes to any home improvement project. Homeowners associations sometimes have restrictions on the materials you can use on your property as well.
