"From the beginning of the process to the end, Sergey and his team were phenomenal!! We were asking them to remove several walls, as well as install new flooring, to give a more open, modern concept to our main floor. Not only was the quote much better than other competitors, the results and worksmanship were beyond our expectations! They were organized professional, and incredibly kind in their conduct and communication. Our home has been completely transformed into the house we were dreaming of when we moved in last September. We would not hesitate to recommend Sergey and Elite Construction to anyone needing help with their home!"

"Donavan did an outstanding job on our basement remodel. Took an open concrete room and turned it into our favorite place to spend time in our home. Everything he does you can see how much effort is put into perfection of even the smallest details. Rest assured, we will hire Affordable Remodels again for our next home upgrade whatever that may be!"

"This was my second time to use Vision Built. The first was a bathroom repair/rebuilt for a rental property I own, I was so satisfied with the work done there that I hired the company to lay a colored concrete pad in the backyard at my personal home. The pad is beautiful. I love the color and size. The concrete was done within several hours and the brush work is excellent. Martin's team does perfection. Thank you so much."

Barndominium Builders FAQs, 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

Concrete blocks are the cheapest way to base a shed. However, the space in between allows critters to go under, burrow, and even damage your shed’s frame. For a more pest-proof option, consider building a shed base with gravel or paver stones. Both options are fairly affordable and easy enough for a DIY project. For gravel, you can build a wooden frame to contain the loose material.

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.

Whether you should choose a flat roof or a sloped roof depends on your particular situation. Flat roofs tend to be less expensive to install. However, sloped roofs have longer lifespans and stand up better to heavy snow and other inclement weather.

Keep in mind that even a flat roof needs to have a slight slope, usually around 1/2 inch for every foot. If it is completely flat, water will pool and cause damage, either from weight or leakage or rot.

Rather than using a common two-by-four piece of wood for a rafter, you probably will use two-by-six, two-by-eight, two-by-ten, or even two-by-twelve boards. Wider lumber is typically a better choice in a larger building as it provides more sturdiness. Some installers may use wider lumber for rafters near the edges of the roof, where the greatest stress occurs, and save money with narrower lumber toward the middle.
