"I hired Andre for a handful of projects. One job was for drywall and painting, another to replace screens in windows and refinishing a door. Also hired him to build a custom staircase. All jobs did timely and with great detail and quality. Found a great reliable contractor to do the jobs I can not. Fair price and no job is too small or big."

"We signed a contract with Vincent's wife (she is the owner of the business) early May 2018. The terms of the contract for payment were 25% at signing 25 % when the job was stared and the last 50 % when the job was complete. Unfortunately Vince deceived me by starting the job earlier ( two days worth of work) that required collecting the second 25 % of payment (needing the money immediately). He then did not showing up for 2 months. When Vince finally showed and finished the driveway preparation it was nothing but excuse after excuse when the work would be completed. What bothered me the most was when Vince had the nerve to insult my intelligence and make up an excuse that the paving machine trailer had two (not just one) flat tire on the day it was scheduled to come to my home. The job was finally finished 5 months later. Vince was at my home 5 days in five month! Vince didn't even show up to supervise the final paving, only his wife to collect the check. Vincent was very professional and informative (talks a lot), he takes pride in his work and pays a lot of attention into detail he is VERY METICULOUS ABOUT HIS WORK! I'm happy with the work he provided. I would only recommend him if you are willing to be deceived by his made up stories, with his timing. Or you are willing to wait several months to have the work completed and are willing to put out a large sum of money at one time and then wonder when the work would be finished."

Barndominium Builders FAQs, answered by experts

Adding an extension or addition to your home costs more than a loft conversion in all but the rarest cases where the home's structural integrity is lacking. Because a home addition requires a new foundation section or significant structural upgrades to handle a cantilevered portion, the cost compared to almost any loft conversion is significantly greater for the same square footage.

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.

Common pitfalls include underestimating the cost of site preparation, overlooking permit and utility fees, and not setting aside funds for unexpected changes. Change orders during construction can disrupt your budget. It’s best to plan a detailed budget, obtain multiple quotes, and include a 10% to 15% contingency fund for unexpected expenses.

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.

Rustic and modern farmhouse styles are currently the most popular. These include rustic and antique furniture, muted colors, clean lines, eclectic decor, and natural materials. Some other popular farmhouse styles include the following:

  • Coastal farmhouse: Creates a lighter, airier feel with soft colors and blue palettes, along with gold

  • Colonial farmhouse: Focuses on real antique furniture and decor

  • French farmhouse: Leans on French country architecture and design by including marble and lighter-colored metals, like zinc

  • Industrial farmhouse: Includes thick, chunky furniture and dark metals

  • Scandinavian farmhouse: Usually includes lighter wood colors and more refined furniture
