"This was a relatively small job but Apex Design Build was able to work me in and get the repairs done. Isis thoroughly explained the repair process and answered all my questions. The work was first rate. I'm pleased with the results. I am a repeat customer and intend to use Apex Design Build as my go-to source for future work."

"This went about as well as you could expect.  He and his partner even helped me unload my old barn -- the really heavy stuff.  And they helped put it back in the new barn.  My caution to anyone considering a new mini-barn, make sure you know how it will be supported. We did have a difference about finishing around the barn since the ground had quite a variation.  We asked about lattice around it.  He was going to charge even more, but changed his mind.  Gratefully.  He came back and completed the job.  It all looks really nice.

"Barry Roach helped us address some issues an inspector found when we were selling our house. Since the sale was contingent on getting these issues resolved quickly, we really appreciated his prompt service, even in the dead of winter. He replaced some siding, repaired some loose/lost shingles, cleaned the exterior of out upstairs windows. He provided materials, and did a great job matching the siding (although he had to go to several places to find the right match). We would use him again."

"Tracy dismantled and hauled away our old wooden wheelchair ramp. He was very efficient and personable. As a senior citizen in very uncertain times, I was quite comfortable hiring him to get the job done. I've never had a contractor who cleaned up as he went. I was extremely happy with his work. I'd give him 200 stars!"

"

I made arrangements for them to come after work to give me an estimate for the work I wanted done and was pleasantly surprise that they went ahead and completed the work that evening.  I could not unlock my deadbolt without lifting up on the door handle to raise the door enough for it to slide open and it had become impossible to lift it enough to get it unlocked.  During a storm, the wind had knocked the lamp off of my light pole and it broke so I had purchased a new one but needed it installed.  The young man who came to do the estimate said he could do all the repairs.  He adjusted the door and locked and unlocked it several times to make sure it was working smoothly.  He then attached the new light fixture to the pole and hung my towel holder.  He was very pleasant, completed the work quickly and cleaned up when he was done.  My first experience with this company is excellent and I will definitely call them again for my next project.

"Thomas and his crew did a great job and the price was excellent. . The house looks so much better and the garage door looks like new. He even offered to paint shed in the back yard and did an amazing job. I would highly recommend if your house needs painting."

Pole Barn Builders questions, answered by experts

Trex is not stronger than wood, but it lasts longer than wood and is heavier. Trex holds up well to the elements and is resistant to termites thanks to its resilient composition of plastic, reclaimed wood, and sawdust. Trex decking is rot and warp-resistant, making it especially useful in areas that experience a lot of snow and rain.

Rustic and modern farmhouse styles are currently the most popular. These include rustic and antique furniture, muted colors, clean lines, eclectic decor, and natural materials. Some other popular farmhouse styles include the following:

  • Coastal farmhouse: Creates a lighter, airier feel with soft colors and blue palettes, along with gold

  • Colonial farmhouse: Focuses on real antique furniture and decor

  • French farmhouse: Leans on French country architecture and design by including marble and lighter-colored metals, like zinc

  • Industrial farmhouse: Includes thick, chunky furniture and dark metals

  • Scandinavian farmhouse: Usually includes lighter wood colors and more refined furniture

While it’s best to have access to large, healthy, strong trees in a safe position, treehouse living is still possible without them. Contractors can fit tree posts to build the structure onto or use posts as additional support alongside the trees themselves. If you’re in doubt about the suitability of the trees on your land, consult with a local treehouse builder before you start the project.

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.

The difference between a pole barn and a stick-built barn is in the construction. Large poles in the ground provide support for pole barns. For stick-built barns, 2-by-4 or 2-by-6 lumber (known as sticks) create a frame around load-bearing beams. Stick-built construction is far more popular for residential homes. Pole barns are more cost-effective because they require fewer materials and less labor.
