"I would recommend this company. They were reasonably priced. Suggestions made but no pressure put on me to agree to it. I wish I would have gone with them for the initial build of my deck. Job was done quickly and expertly."

"Beyond The Four Walls Construction is absolutely fantastic and has reasonable prices. My Contractor, Courtney, is very knowledgeable and skilled in all areas of his craft. All work was completed as discussed and to specifications. At the onset of looking for a contractor, I was very nervous and uncertain, as to who, I would let do my job. Courtney, is honest, a good listener, dependable, reliable, shows up as scheduled, confident, patient, understanding and aware of current design styles and trends. No matter what issues were uncovered, Courtney, addressed them, with no problem. I was impressed and pleased. I have plans for additional renovations and have already scheduled them for next year. I highly recommend Beyond The Four Walls Construction, for ALL your remodeling and renovation needs."

"Beyond the 4 Walls Construction tore down my old shed and built a new one in its place. Courtney, the owner, did a great job in a timely manner. He gave me more storage space by building the shed taller and installing more shelves. After building the new shed, they did a fantastic job in remodeling my garage. The garage was completely insulated, drywalled, a new ceiling remodeled, windows reframed and the garage was completely painted. At the end of each the day, everything was cleaned up and when the projects were completed, all debris was removed. Courtney is courteous, professional and dependable. I am very happy with my garage and shed, and would recommend Beyond the 4 Walls to anyone looking to have some remodeling, painting, building or any related work done. E. Johnson"

Pole Barn Builders questions, answered by experts

Pole barns and carports are similar in that they rely on posts for support and are often not connected to a primary structure. The main difference between the two is that pole barns usually include walls that surround the entire perimeter of the structure, while carports generally remain open on three or four sides. It’s possible to insulate garage doors and even exterior walls on pole barns to create a comfortable workspace, and it’s a bit more secure for storage purposes. However, carports are more affordable.

Common pitfalls include underestimating the cost of site preparation, overlooking permit and utility fees, and not setting aside funds for unexpected changes. Change orders during construction can disrupt your budget. It’s best to plan a detailed budget, obtain multiple quotes, and include a 10% to 15% contingency fund for unexpected expenses.

Building a tiny house is the least complicated way to build, especially if you’re tackling the project as a DIY. The smaller size means less complex plans, more straightforward utility installation, and fewer ways to make costly errors. Tiny homes still need to conform to building codes and often have other applicable regulations, so be sure to get the proper permits and confirm your build is by the book.

The maximum size of a tiny home you can move depends on your state transportation guidelines, but the rule of thumb is a maximum of 400 square feet. However, as long as it falls within the local limits for traveling on public roadways, you should be good to hit the road.

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.
