"Tony was a great communicator. We were asking for a custom build fence. We had contacted some of the basic fence companies prior to getting Tony’s name and no one would even quote us. He basically helped design in and pulled the permit for us. The end product was great and we’d recommend."

"Joe and his team from coastal renovations were one of the best experiences I have had on any renovation we have done on many homes we have owned. From start to finish they explained every step taken and when the project was completed we couldn't be happier. If your looking for a contractor I would highly recommend them."

"I have used Atlantic for several projects. Both inside and outside of my home. They're very fair in pricing and did an exceptional job. I have had bad experiences hiring contractors and I'm so glad I found Brent at Atlantic Contractors. I would definitely recommend them for any homeowner looking for an honest, hardworking contractor."

"We had a front and side porch replaced. The entire team worked together effortlessly. They were reliable, competent and preformed high quality workmanship. The work was completed in the time frame given and on budget. Most importantly were the open communications throughout the job. This was huge for me since I was unable to be present for most of the project. Thank you for all your hard work and professionalism. I highly recommend Accessible Home Builders. They were awesome!"

Customers say: Quality work

"I had them build my beach house during Covid and I could not be more pleased with how things went. Materials and labor cost was an issue but I was kept informed the entire way on timing of the items as well as increased cost for the project. They are very quick to respond and also very polite and courteous to me and my wife. I could’ve went with a big builder in the area but would have never gotten the treatment that I did with such a caring local builder. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for any type of work and the Delaware market."

Barndominium Builders questions, answered by experts

It is recommended that you check with your local building official on barn building requirements and rules, since size restrictions vary greatly from region to region based on what your property is zoned for. Some cities limit barn construction depending on if your property is residential or commercial. The three main factors your building commission will evaluate are:

  • Height and lot coverage: How tall your barn is and how much of your total property it occupies

  • Setback: Distance between barn and property line

  • Easement: Legal right for another owner to access another’s property

Yes, barndominiums are energy-efficient as long as insulation professionals properly install quality insulation, windows, and doors. Utility bills for barndo living can be up to 50% lower than those for a traditional home.  Make your barndo more energy efficient by working with contractors and HVAC professionals to strategically place windows, doors, and heating/cooling systems. 

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.

Whether you buy a prefabricated shed or build one depends on why you need it and where you stay. For instance, if a simple garden shed is what you’re after, it’ll be less expensive to buy one already built. But if you want a shed with windows, plumbing, and electric work, a custom-built unit might be more suited to your needs.

If you’re building a pole barn in place of a traditional home, lenders usually don’t offer traditional mortgages for these structures. You can also expect higher insulation costs and building permits may not be allowed in your area. Even if you’re just using a pole barn as storage or as a shelter for animals, these structures are less durable than steel buildings and require more maintenance.
