"This company was constructing a complete residential landscaping plan for a new home. I watched them across my back fence for weeks. I have had years of experience with property ownership from construction to ownership and management. The detail and care taken by this crew from grading to rock placement to use of concrete in the final design are impressive. I have brought friends and neighbors in to observe the finished job. While completing the work for my neighbor, I hire the company to do a job for me. Very satisfied with Nick and the entire crew. I will hire this company in the future."

The team was very professional, clean, and completed the work quickly. I highly recommend giving them a call if you need contractor work! Thank you R.U.S.S. Custom Builds for bringing my dream kitchen to life!"

"Dylan was the GC for an ADU that I had built on my property. He was very professional and built the whole ADU faster than anticipated. The quality of his tradesmen is excellent. He is friendly and has excellent communication skills. We would nightly recommend Dylan for any construction project big or small."

"Chris was recommended to us by a friend and neighbor. He remodeled both of our bathrooms and our kitchen. Chris and his team did a FABULOUS job! Very professional, well thought out and cleaned up daily. Also, the work was completed on time. I call Chris for EVERYTHING. He repaired the roof in barn, replaced a pressure tank in our shop and many, many projects around our house. If Chris is out of town and I have a problem, he has a referral that can come and take care of it. Love Chris and team and we will ONLY hire them. Lynn and Doug Lessa"

Barndominium Builders questions, 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.

Depending on your needs, you may find a storebought pole barn is a much less expensive option than a custom-built one. You can find pole barn kits from big box retailers starting at $11,000, but you will be limited when it comes to size and add-on features. As long as you have the necessary skills, you can save on labor costs by doing it yourself; but there are a lot of different skill sets you would need, and mistakes during the building process can lead to excessive repair bills later.

While building a treehouse isn’t necessarily a death sentence, damaging the trunk is one of the ways to kill a tree. If you’re concerned about the tree, opt for a treehouse support system rather than attaching it directly to the trunk. This may involve using bolts and brackets to affix the structure to the tree's branches or establishing a standalone support system that remains unattached to the tree.

It is almost always more affordable to buy an existing home than to build a new one. Building a home involves numerous costs, including labor, permits, inspections, utility hookups, and brand-new materials, finishes, and appliances. Additionally, new construction loans can have higher interest rates than traditional mortgages, and property taxes on new homes are often higher, increasing long-term costs. An exception is a DIY house build, which can be cheaper than buying an existing home if you do the labor yourself. While building is generally more expensive, a new custom home offers complete control over the layout and design. Furthermore, new construction is typically worth more than a comparable pre-owned home and may provide a better return on investment if sold quickly.

The best lumber for building will be the strongest and most eco-friendly wood your budget allows. That being said, Douglas fir, pine, oak, and maple are all common building materials. Contractors will use a strong, inexpensive wood to frame a house or other structure and finer woods like mahogany for detail work.
