"Rye Workz mounted my TV on the wall and I couldn’t be happier with the result. He was professional, easy to communicate with, and showed up when he said he would. The TV is perfectly level, rock solid, and looks fantastic. He worked efficiently, took care with the wall, and left everything clean when he was done. You can tell he takes real pride in his work. If you need a TV mounted or any handyman work done right, I highly recommend Rye Workz. I’ll definitely be calling him again."

Customers say: True professional

"Adrian and his crew were very professional, reliable and meticulous. They left the space clean and the re-build they did after my water damage made it look as if nothing ever even happened. They also got the work done quickly and efficiently for us. Prior to starting the work they came out several times to ensure all of our needs would be met. They also assisted us with the insurance process within their scope. My husband and I would highly recommend the company."

Barndominium Builders FAQs, 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.

The difference between a pole barn and a stick-built barn is in the construction. Large poles in the ground provide support for pole barns. For stick-built barns, 2-by-4 or 2-by-6 lumber (known as sticks) create a frame around load-bearing beams. Stick-built construction is far more popular for residential homes. Pole barns are more cost-effective because they require fewer materials and less labor.

It’s much less expensive to build a house with wood. This is because wood is relatively inexpensive, strong enough to endure decades or even centuries of weathering and pressure, and is easier to replace if there are issues. The cost of stone houses are incredibly expensive, heavy, time-consuming to build, and difficult to repair. 

While it’s best to have access to large, healthy, strong trees in a safe position, treehouse living is still possible without them. Contractors can fit tree posts to build the structure onto or use posts as additional support alongside the trees themselves. If you’re in doubt about the suitability of the trees on your land, consult with a local treehouse builder before you start the project.

Building a treehouse can vary in difficulty depending on factors such as design complexity, size, and the builder’s woodworking experience. Basic treehouses with simple designs can be manageable for DIYers with some carpentry skills, while more elaborate structures may pose challenges. Adequate planning, research, and careful execution can make the process more manageable, and resources like premade plans or professional assistance are always available for additional support.
