"Extremely efficient business. Fast and effective communication and great repair for the price. Charles helped us address a safety issue with a stair landing rail and newel and we are very satisfied with the result for the price. Charles was meticulous in matching the repair work to the original finish of the wood bannister styling."

"Sean procured the repair materials and matching corner siding piece from a siding contractor. The damage caused by squirrel was repaired and the hole covered very carefully. The area now looking like new. The work was done with much expertise and care. We will use Sean again for all handyman services in our home."

"They did an excellent job. They were expensive, but you get what you pay for. The building inspector of the city said this was the best built garage he had ever inspected. I would highly recommend them and I would definitely hire them again."

"We had Garage For You build us a detached garage. It turned out great. Ivona handled the permitting process and got the necessary surveys done quickly. The concrete was done quickly and they were clean. The carpenters were fussy about materials used and paid attention to the little things that made it a great job. I would highly recommend Garage For You for your garage needs."

Customers say: Super punctual

"We recently had our two main bathrooms remodeled by A P Builder (Owner is Angelo). We are totally thrilled with the end results of these projects. Angelo was involved in every phase of the project, many times offering valuable suggestions that we had not thought about. The work was done while paying attention to every detail, no matter how large or small. If and when there was a “glitch”, it was dealt with promptly and completely to our satisfaction. I would highly recommend Angelo and his company for future work at our home. Bravo to A.P. Builders and Angelo for a JOB WELL DONE!"

"­We are very happy with the new custom home Clean Edge built for us. True to their name, they provide a great attention to detail. The quality of the construction is very high, with solid materials and also an aesthetic on the finishing touches. You have to look very hard to find any imperfections, and then they correct those quickly. The owner is very focused on this approach, providing products and services a cut above the rest. This company is a rare find and I would not hesitate to engage them again any time."

Small jobs welcome

"If you are in need of a handyman look no further than Jim Leonard! My husband and I hired him to help us with our new (old) home that was in need of serious repair and he has been absolutely incredible! He knows how to do everything and he does it the right way! Mold remediation, expert painting, tricky electrical installation, extensive drywall repair, artistically applied wood baseboard trim, you name it he does it! He is professional, polite and a pleasure to work with. He treats your home as if it were his own. He meticulously cleans up after a job, he works fast but is conscientious about each project so things are well thought out and done well. He even gives great advice if youâ re attempting to tackle a job on your own. He notices and sensitively points out things that arenâ t right. IE: when we first bought our home while here doing unrelated work, Jim noticed the garage ceiling drywall was in danger of falling. He immediately brought it to our attention and promptly fixed it saving us from certain disaster. This is the kind of person he is, he genuinely cares about his clients and he goes above and beyond what is expected. Hire Jim Leonard, you will be so so glad you did!"

Barndominium Builders FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.

A steel frame costs 10% to 20% more than a wood frame. Wood is a much easier material to work with, more accessible, and generally more affordable than steel—plus, you need specialized tools to work with steel.

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.

Average barndominiums last between 50 and 150 years depending on the materials they are made from, how well they are maintained, and the environment they are built in. Barndominiums are very durable and have a much longer lifespan than traditional wood homes. With proper care and maintenance, well-built barndominium homes can last generations.
