"Dave installed kitchen faucet, and is repairing my Island drawers. He will also be giving me a price to build an outdoor deck, fix some doors in the house and some other projects that I have not even thought of yet. He cleans everything up when finished, and my dog even liked him. Good Guy."

"Vincent knows the cement business. I learned a lot from him. He replaced old cement floor and driveway. He works hard for his customers even weekends when circumstances dictate. I plan to hire him again to install patio stone when I choose the material and design."

"I needed to have the old flooring removed and the new flooring put down. They team was very professional. They realized the subflooring was messed up in a section and made sure to stop and communicate so the job can be doone correctly. I appreciated that factor and was able to approve a replacement of the messed up board the great thing was they were still able to finish the job in the time frame they originally stated! I plan to use them for all jobs moving forward. Priced fair,quality work, and friendly and professional!"

Customers say: Quick response

"The Cahoons did an outstanding job on our deck to three season room conversion . They were excellent in planning the project, meticulous in the finishes and very detail oriented in all aspects of the job. They paid close attention to the little things : all trash was promptly cleared and cleaned up, they vacuumed and washed up dust, dirt, tile and saw dust, the workers were polite and professional and had a small footprint while at our residence: they kept us informed of what they were doing, how they would do it, when they would do it, etc. No loud music and no bad language either. We would definitely recommend these people for their work and their professionalism to anyone needing remodeling or home repair services."

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.

A simple A-frame chicken coop can take as little as three hours to build, but a more substantial all-in-one coop to house a large flock can take four or five days to build. Consult a local handyperson or custom coop builder for a time estimate based on the specific details of your project.

It may be tempting to DIY the construction of a swing set to save money, but we don’t recommend it. Since children will use the swing set, the entire system must be solid and safe, meaning the cost savings aren’t worth potentially endangering them. Plus, most DIYers will have to build their swing sets out of wood, which won’t last as long as metal or vinyl and introduces the risk of splinters. Instead, hire a local playground equipment installer to ensure the swing set is built safely and efficiently, setting up your kids for fun for years to come.

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.

The maximum size of a tiny home you can move depends on your state transportation guidelines, but the rule of thumb is a maximum of 400 square feet. However, as long as it falls within the local limits for traveling on public roadways, you should be good to hit the road.
