"Dan was great - delivered exactly as bid. I had them build a double garage/shop. Work was done well and timely. I didn't really get other bids, but I think that the price for the job was a bit high, but because the work was done so well and there were no "surprises", I am satisfied overall. They came back several times to fix a garage door window which kept breaking (some kind of manufacturer defect) until they got it fixed- all without any nagging from me!"

"It gives me great pleasure to write this review for Unison Builds LLC. Chris and his team handled the complete interior and exterior renovation of our 7,500 square feet office building. Their work included adding seven new offices, a gorgeous marble kitchen and dining room, a wonderful reception area, an executive conference room with a 14-foot table, the CEO's new office, and nearly everything else. He is a reliable builder. His team takes great pride in what they do. And the work proceeded even faster than we expected."

"I had the pleasure of working with The Restoration Guild, Inc. for the construction of two treatment rooms, and I couldn't be more impressed. Greg took the time to understand exactly what I was envisioning, and the results far exceeded my expectations. The attention to detail and seamless execution were remarkable. The crew was professional, punctual, and incredibly skilled. They created a space that not only met but surpassed the design and functionality I had hoped for. I highly recommend The Restoration Guild, Inc. for any project. Their dedication to excellence and client satisfaction is truly commendable."

"Very good,. He was a little slow in finishing the job but didn't charge extra for the agreed upon price. He took a bad storm door back to Lowe's and exchanged for a good one. Didn't charge me for the trip."

"The Double O team was very professional and knows the ins and outs of fine custom home building. Impressed with their ability to make changes during the construction process, their ability to value engineer certain areas of the project and still deliver the aesthetic look we required. Seth has built a large network of reliable subcontractors that help him achieve their timelines, and the quality of work is exceptional. Hope to build another home with Double O at the helm."

"Working with Will was great. He was the best as far as working within our specific budget, and always brought great ideas to the table. It was common for him to go above and beyond, and when scheduling conflicts came up, he was quick to communicate the plan forward. Anytime I have another project, he s my first call"

Barndominium Builders questions, answered by experts

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.

Average barndominiums last between 50 and 150 years depending on the materials they are made from, how well they are maintained, and the environment they are built in. Barndominiums are very durable and have a much longer lifespan than traditional wood homes. With proper care and maintenance, well-built barndominium homes can last generations. 

This answer varies based on where you are, but most states require that all homes are greater than 320 square feet. Remember that four walls are not the only requirements—windows, closet space, minimal ceiling heights, and indoor air quality are also factors. Each state and municipality differs, though, and as some don’t consider tiny homes permanent shelters, you’ll need to check to ensure you aren’t violating any local or state laws with your build.

Rather than using a common two-by-four piece of wood for a rafter, you probably will use two-by-six, two-by-eight, two-by-ten, or even two-by-twelve boards. Wider lumber is typically a better choice in a larger building as it provides more sturdiness. Some installers may use wider lumber for rafters near the edges of the roof, where the greatest stress occurs, and save money with narrower lumber toward the middle.

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.
