"2 decks replaced. Got those jobs done ok. He took on a large tree removal job. Had to have a pro come and take it down. Never got my second tree done which was on the contract that he said he could do it. I paid him in full of contract. But his cleanup by my tree that got removed. He did a very sloppy job and only put dark dirt on the tree stump that barely got drilled out. Plus put dirt on part of the area that got damaged. Left a lot of damaged areas without the good dirt put over it. The dirt was all ruined from the large tree service going on and removing very heavy bottom of the tree. Also had grass all ruined from equipment that picks up heavy trees at the largest bottom of tree. Doesn't think he was suppose to put dark dirt over that. So I'm stuck with brown dirt on parts where they ruined. They seeded on soil that will never grow grass. Had heavy rains day after and seeds are washed out. Didn't get my land level. Would not recommend hiring them for tree removal or trimming!"

Pole Barn Builders questions, answered by experts

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.

Any type of construction that damages a tree’s roots via soil compaction can be dangerous, and is one of the primary causes of mature tree death in residential areas. Simply putting lots of weight on the ground around the tree, like construction supplies, trailers, and equipment, can kill roots near the surface. Of course, installing new foundations, patios, or utility lines can cut through nearby tree roots. Accidentally striking a tree with equipment or supplies is rarely a problem, but can cause damage of its own, too.

Whether pole barn posts should be set in concrete depends on the soil surrounding your home. If your soil is compact and digging conditions are agreeable, then setting pole barn posts in concrete is an ideal option.

While a romantic getaway in a vacation treehouse may sound appealing, building one to live in year-round comes with more challenges. However, a growing number of people are adopting this small-scale living approach to appreciate an off-the-grid, private lifestyle. It allows you to feel closer to nature in a sustainable, customizable, minimalist, and eco-friendly way.

Skid foundations, deck block foundations, and concrete block foundations are the most affordable shed foundation options. Of these, we recommend deck blocks. Deck blocks are easy to install and level, and they raise your shed up off the ground to prevent rotting from exposure to water and moisture. Keep in mind that deck blocks won’t resist soil movement or frost heave, so they’re not ideal in areas with expansive soil or a deep frost line.
