""Your Handymen, LLC", Jeff, Robert, and David, did Outstanding work once again for us. Their efforts brought three of our home's rooms back into style, and they are now more functional and look fantastic. I have never seen and enjoyed such great attention to detail and resulting A+ quality! Eg, Robert fashioned a new redwood door threshold with great precision to avoid trip hazards - it looked fantastic after stained. And, the Living Room ceiling repair exceeded my expectations. They were very experienced with all aspects of the work, this time, painting, flooring, plastering, plumbing, carpentry, wall paper removal, & sourcing. For my family, their respect for the homeowner's complete satisfaction, and trustworthy, professional and friendly nature is so appreciated. Thank you!"

"David and his crew were fantastic to work with. The quality of their work was outstanding and they treated our home as if it were their own. They were punctual, polite and made sure that the area was clean at the end of every day. From our initial estimate through the entire process, we were kept up to date on progress and timelines and consulted whenever there were options and decisions to be made. We would definitely recommend and work with Apex Design Build again."

"We first hired Andy to do an upgrade of our family room. He worked with us to understand exactly what we wanted and they produced. Top notch quality and in a world of blowing schedules they stayed on target and finished things on time. The second was a complete revamp of the kitchen and dining room. Removed a wall and his experience showed in our redesign. Allowed us to open up and better organize our space including granite countertops, new appliances, cabinets and floors. Tried and true subway tile for a backsplash and other touches made this a great experience. Besides their professionalism on the job, Andy and his crew are really nice people that make you feel comfortable that they are working with you on your home. I highly recommend Andy and Yesteryear for your remodel projects."

"John is a first rate builder. The new shed is a sturdy, well built structure that with good maintenance should last 50 years or more. It is a beautiful addition to our back yard and has increased our property's overall appeal. John considers all the nuances--such as hooks for the doors when they are open, hinges which go the length of the door. We had our shed painted before it was constructed and the end pieces are sealed to minimize damage due to warping. You won't go wrong with John. I cannot recommend him highly enough if quality is your driver."

"Nathan came to my in-laws home to see the damage and give an estimate to fix the ceiling damage. He made a quick assessment and we set 2 appointment times to fix the drywall and paint the ceiling within a week and a half of the estimate. At the end of the second day, the ceiling looked like there had never been any damage. Nathan did a fantastic job. My in- laws couldn’t be happier. In fact they have already had Nathan back to do more work!"

Barndominium Builders FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.

Your chicken coop needs to be off the ground to protect your chickens and avoid problems brought on by flooding, mud, and moisture. If you can't locate a high area to build the coop, you should build an elevated coop to ensure it stays dry. 

Complex plumbing is tricky and expensive in an off-the-ground dwelling like this. By considering options like composting toilets, rainwater collection, and gray-water sinks, you save money and help the environment. 

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.
