"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."

"I asked Shed Doctors for a quote to build an large outdoor structure. John responded quickly. In looking at the project closely, it was determined to not be a good fit. Rather than try to bid and take on the project anyway, John was upfront and honest. While this project didn't happen, I will definitely reach out to Shed Doctors in the future for any projects that I believe could align."

"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."

"

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.

"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!"

Pole Barn Builders FAQs, answered by experts

Technically, most states allow tiny homes, but it depends on the definition of tiny and whether the structure is permanent. Zoning laws regarding home size and construction are significant factors. For instance, a tiny home may be legal as a recreational vehicle in most areas, but you may only install it on a property if it complies with building and zoning codes.

The pro you need to hire to build your shed depends on the shed you purchase. A local handyman or general contractor can help build a prefab shed for you. However, if you’re looking for a custom shed, contacting a shed builder near you is the best option. Make sure you get quotes from 3 pros to decide on the best pro for your job. 

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.

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.

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.
