"We hired EA Home Builders to renovate our guest bathroom - and they did a great job for us. The two gentlemen they hired for our job were skilled professionals. They said it would take about a week and it did these guys showed up on time every morning and worked all day (with a half hour break for lunch). And at the end of each day, they meticulously cleaned up the inevitable mess of the day. Without a doubt I would use EA Home Builders again for our next project."

"Josh did a great job on my roofing repair! He showed up when he said he would, and the roof looks great! He also installed some replacement skylights and siding. He sent many pics of the job as I wasn’t able to be there when the work was performed. I will definitely use him again."

"Will did an absolutely amazing job from start to finish! He was professional, friendly, and extremely respectful throughout the entire process. He took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure the work was done right and efficiently. His pricing is on point, especially if you’re on a budget. It’s hard to find quality work at a fair price, and he definitely delivers both. You can tell he truly cares about the quality of his work and his customers. The finished result exceeded my expectations, and I felt completely comfortable throughout the project. I will definitely be using him again for future work and project needs. Highly recommend!"

"Joe, Abel, and Crew did an awesome job building our 28’x8’ Timbertech deck, 25’ elevated on a hillside. Joe worked closely with the Mill Valley permitting office to get the engineering plans approved, and once we got the green light the deck shot right up! We’re extremely happy we chose them to build the deck and would happily recommend for anyone looking at similar projects."

"We found Bielefeld Construction on Home Advisor and was surprised when Ray responded because we hadnâ t previously had a lot of luck on Home Advisor. We hired them for a master bedroom remodel and are very happy with the final outcome. We made a few changes here and there and Ray was very accommodating. All employees and subcontractors were pleasant, considerate and meticulous in what they brought to the project. We would definitely recommend Bielefeld Construction and use them again if the need arises. 5 star organization!"

Barndominium Builders questions, answered by experts

Whether pole barn posts should be set in concrete depends on the soil surrounding your home. If your soil is compact and digging conditions are agreeable, then setting pole barn posts in concrete is an ideal option.

Building a barndominium means converting a barn into a house. Barndominiums are becoming popular as spacious and stylish alternatives to typical housing structures. Old barns that become houses traditionally consist of wooden construction. However, newer structures, such as pole barns, often contain metal exteriors and roofs. Converting a metal outbuilding into a house presents an excellent opportunity to create a barndominium from metal.

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

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.

The lifespan of a barn is typically 40 to 60 years, but with skillful construction and proper maintenance, it can last up to 100 years. The actual lifespan depends on several factors, including the barn type, materials, usage, and climate. For example, the posts of a pole barn should last 50 years or longer, but if the structure is used for livestock in a rainy climate, it may rot within the first decade. Custom designs with high-end materials tend to last the longest. To get the best estimate for your barn's lifespan, you should consider its material type and intended use.
