"We had additional insulation installed in our attic, a barrier put in above the soffits to allow better airflow, and installed a radiant barrier to help with the attic heat. They also insulated our garage that had not been properly insulated before. They were quick to respond for an initial estimate and were very accommodating to our schedule. They were able to schedule our job quickly and were wonderful to work with. Everything was online and easy to access. Once our job started, they walked through everything with us to keep us informed of the job, the workers were polite and very clean in their work, and they arrived on time. They readjusted their initial scope of the project to better insulate an odd area above our garage, and did so at no additional cost to us. Very happy with them from start to finish."

"Excellent. The three man crew of Bret, John and Ryan were the most professional workers that we've ever had at our home. It was gratifying to see people doing their jobs instead of constantly on a cell phone like we see so often. As a matter of fact, except for short well deserved breaks, we never observed anything but work being done. Our deck is sturdy and well built with really nice fit and finish, even the inspector stated that he felt we had an outstanding result. We would definitely recommend Chesterfield Fence and Deck."

"Bob came out and provided an estimate which included options for completing the work. Once the work was scheduled he arrived on time and courteous, as usual. New security light of our choosing was installed in our backyard and a GFI outlet were installed in the garage in under an hour. We have used Mr. Handyman Metro East for several projects at our home and continue to use them because of their professionalism, value and customer focus."

Pole Barn Builders FAQs, answered by experts

You don’t typically need a permit to build a shed, but it’s best to check with your local city clerk to make sure before you start the project. Every town, city, and municipality can have different rules when it comes to any home improvement project. Homeowners associations sometimes have restrictions on the materials you can use on your property as well.

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.

Building a barndominium means converting a barn into a house. Barndominiums are becoming popular as spacious and stylish alternatives to typical housing structures. Old barns that become houses traditionally consist of wooden construction. However, newer structures, such as pole barns, often contain metal exteriors and roofs. Converting a metal outbuilding into a house presents an excellent opportunity to create a barndominium from metal.

Whether a prefab home is worth it or not will depend on your personal needs and preferences. Overall, prefab homes tend to cost less than traditional homes, although they also tend to have lower resale values. Another thing to consider is that prefab homes usually last 50 to 60 years or longer, while traditional homes last 50 to 100 years or more.

A simple A-frame chicken coop can take as little as three hours to build, but a more substantial all-in-one coop to house a large flock can take four or five days to build. Consult a local handyperson or custom coop builder for a time estimate based on the specific details of your project.
