Customers say: True professional

"First, about me: I am a 70-year-old male from an older generation. When they sent two young girls with tattoos, I thought, “oh great! (Sad but true). These two girls were probably the best technicians I have ever had the lucky break to hire in my 70 years. This area is notorious for being very slack in the quality of any of the people they send out. These girls were over and above everything I could have possibly hoped for— and I am a man that sets the bar high! If you’re looking for any project at all around your home, at least give them a chance to talk to you. You simply can’t do better. Their professionalism, their warmth and friendliness and above all, their expertise is everything you could hope for when you retain someone to work on your home. God used them to teach me a lesson about judging a book by its cover, lol. Again, I don’t mean to “gush” but you do not know how refreshing it is to get people who show up on time, who “know their stuff” and are warm and friendly to boot. They ARE my “ go to” professionals for any future work I have on my home. Thank you, girls. You are, as they say, “above and beyond.” Your father must be very proud of both of you."

"I had an excellent experience with Sarmento Bros Construction for my recent bathroom remodel. Justin and his team did a fantastic job from start to finish. They were highly responsive to any changes I wanted, and Justin was always easy to reach whenever I had questions or concerns. Their pricing was very reasonable, offering great value for the high-quality workmanship they provided. Not only did they transform my bathroom beautifully, but they were also incredibly clean and organized throughout the entire process. Each day, they made sure to tidy up, leaving no mess behind, which I truly appreciated. It’s clear that they take pride in their work and care about their customers. I would highly recommend this local company to anyone looking for a reliable, skilled, and a reasonable priced contractor!"

"As a first time home owner, I was afraid of having trouble with my project, having Cesar and his team work on my home was a very easy and successful project. My roof was replaced and backyard porch was built. Cesar walked me through the different options and we got started what fit me best. I 100% recommend ENC Construction to anyone looking for a honest and quality contract."

"Shaun was really great to work with on our home project. We had several contractors working on a 50 year old home for various reasons and Shaun was by far the best, most straight forward and reliable. Would definitely hire again!"

Barndominium Builders questions, answered by experts

You can use a variety of wood to build a barn door, but the most common options include 1-by boards and 2-by boards for the backing and the decorative boards on the front of the door. Softwoods like pine will save you some money and should hold up well, while hardwoods like maple and oak will stand up to more wear and tear. You could also build the backer out of plywood to minimize the cuts you need to make. Whatever you decide on, make sure the width of the wood is compatible with the mounting brackets you buy.

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 time it takes to build a shed heavily depends on the type of shed you buy. A prefab shed can be built in 4 to 8 hours, while a custom shed will be built off-site over the span of 2 to 5 days. It then takes a few hours, depending on the location, to move the finished shed to its final location.

Whether you should choose a flat roof or a sloped roof depends on your particular situation. Flat roofs tend to be less expensive to install. However, sloped roofs have longer lifespans and stand up better to heavy snow and other inclement weather.

Keep in mind that even a flat roof needs to have a slight slope, usually around 1/2 inch for every foot. If it is completely flat, water will pool and cause damage, either from weight or leakage or rot.

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