"Gene and his crew did a great job retrofitting cable railing on an existing non-code railing (safety spacing) small deck and building a gate to match the appearance of the existing railing. Arrived on time, worked efficiently and cleaned up after."

"I hired Benny for several jobs at my house -- attic insulation, exterior painting of aluminum siding and concrete block garage, driveway sealing, and roof washing. He got everything done in great time without sacrificing quality. He was always very courteous and conscientious, kept me up to date on each stage, and I felt comfortable having him work inside and outside my home. I would recommend him and his team to other homeowners without hesitation."

"Gary was very prompt in his response.
The job was started on time, finished on time and the price was spot on.  When he started to set the grade, he determined that the diffrence in grade was too much and we had to add a step somewhere.  He build out a nice little stair well and it looks great.  He even had the foresight to put a light in this new step to match the lights we put in the existing steps.  Gary did not charge anything extra for the stairwell, and just charged me for the extra light.

"All rooms were done to perfection.   Ceilings in our 45 year old house look brand new.   Molding is perfect.
Garage is above our expectations... all walls were completely repaired.   I think this even took more time that Joe may have estimated.  
They are perfectionists.   It is as if they are painting and repairing their own homes.
Joe answered all of our questions in a very timely manner.  Great communicator.   All estimates were in writing.  
As the work was being completed, he would give us a summary each day.  
We had three estimates from other Painters / Carpenters.   Joe's was the most complete and fairest price.
I would recommend Joseph Sullivan Painting and we will use them again.

"When we first met with Lew Merryfield, our home was a disaster.  Smoke and intense heat had made it necessary to completely gut and restore our home.  It was a time of great despair and confusion.  Lew was very reassuring that his company would be able to handle to assignment and allow us to return to a home that was better than ever, and agreed to bid the job in the format requested.
After the contract was signed the Merryfield Construction Group was very active, and progress was made every week.  We opted to hire our own subcontractors for plumbing and HVAC, and an electrical contractor recommended by the provider.  The provider and their staff worked well with the other contractors and were communicative with us during the process.  A promise to never abandon working on our home for any significant period of time was kept.  Building options and recommendations were presented at appropriate times and were appreciated.  Lew and his brother George worked with us to solve problems that arose and we always felt like it was a partnership and that they took great pride in their work.  Additional work outside the original contract and work change orders were appropriate and reasonably priced.
The fire was one week before Christmas in 2013, and we were able to move back in late October 2014.  Although this time frame was slightly outside of the original estimate, it was not considered unreasonable given the nature of the work and the change orders. After we moved in, the provider has done a nice job on following up any problem areas and punch list items.
We are very happy with our "new" home and are confident that the provider will continue to stand behind the work.  The overall job turned out much better than we could have expected.  Lew and George Merryfield, and their staff, particularly Tom Ferry, Sean, and Scott, were always respectful and friendly, and took obvious pride in their crafts.  In conclusion, we are glad we selected Merryfield Construction Group and would not hesitate to use them again in the future or recommend them to others."

"I highly recommend Montco Fencing.  They had replaced several fence sections and shored up posts in 2015.  Realized I should have replaced all fence sections so called them back to replace remaining.  Competitive pricing for very high quality workmanship. They do not come out with prefab fence sections but, instead, build fence post by fence post on site taking time to ensure post heights within each section and across all sections are level, even in areas of yard that are uneven  The crew that worked on my project were pleasant and courteous, skilled and worked hard to complete the job by end of day -- without cutting any corners -- and left the area clean of all old fencing debris.  The only reason I awarded them the one B for promptness among A's for all categories, is that their arrival time was much later than what had been communicated.  I learned the reason for this is that they custom cut each fence post -- not only do they not come with pre-fab sections, they actually cut each and every fence post individually -- and it was taking longer than anticipated.  This is understandable but would just suggest they be proactive in alerting customers if their arrival time is going to significantly deviate from what was originally communicated.  But, I would use them again for sure and would highly recommend them to others."

Pole Barn Builders FAQs, answered by experts

If you can’t repair and repurpose your shed, it might be possible to sell it, donate it, or salvage parts rather than them just ending up in a landfill. Professional junk removal services will advise you on what can and will be recycled. You may also want to keep some parts to upcycle them for other projects around your home. Turning planks from your memory-filled wooden shed into a coffee table or bed headboard is good for the environment and the soul.

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.

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.

Pole barns and carports are similar in that they rely on posts for support and are often not connected to a primary structure. The main difference between the two is that pole barns usually include walls that surround the entire perimeter of the structure, while carports generally remain open on three or four sides. It’s possible to insulate garage doors and even exterior walls on pole barns to create a comfortable workspace, and it’s a bit more secure for storage purposes. However, carports are more affordable.

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.
