"Installers arrived within the expected window (9 am), and finished by 5:30 pm. It did not look exactly like I thought it would (but I'm no expert on how insulation should look). They were clean and did not track insulation everywhere which was nice. They freely made sure the rest of the attic was sealed as much as possible, providing extra materials to do so.

Update as of 10/19/2017: After I posted my review, the owner (Chris) reached out to me to try to make sure I was completely satisfied with the work done. Chis personally came out to inspect the work that was done and agreed that it could be improved upon. We then scheduled a second visit, where they installed more radiant barrier, as well as some foam boards to help limit air flow. They were again on time and very clean, making sure to shop-vac everything up before leaving Everything seemed much better after the second visit, and I am very satisfied with the work done. They performed this extra work without any extra cost, which was greatly appreciated."

"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

While sheds are most certainly helpful for most homeowners, unfortunately, sheds do not add value to a home or property in the traditional sense. However, if the home has limited storage or garage space, having a shed to store things like decorations or lawn equipment can certainly be a positive if you want to sell.

Choose a barn door with an extra two to three inches on either side of the frame. The width of the barn door will depend on the type and placement of your track, but in most cases, an additional inch or two will do the trick.

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

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. 

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.
