"I was referred to Lee by my realtor. He and I looked over plans for the house making some minor adjustments to fit my needs. Construction began on schedule with no delays during construction . Lee kept me abreast during all phases of construction upon move-in. He and his crew were very professional thru out the build. I did have a few minor problems after moving in and Lee was notified and he responded immediately and the issues were resolved. I would recommend Potter Group Home for your building needs.

"Had previously contacted a business to give us a quote last November, and when we were ready to begin our project this summer, we could not get ahold of them again. Tried for two months and decided that was that. Contacted the Lawnfather and received an almost immediate response. They came out and did a quote within the week. Two weeks after that they came out and got the job done! And they did a great job!"

"They just completed my home paint job today and i am super excited at the new look. They where very prompt and professional and my husband and I really enjoyed their company. They left the site clean and moved all of the furniture free of charge. They also did not work any other jobs while on our site and i really appreciated the dedication provided by the contractors. I would highly recommend them to friends and family. Thumbs up to Covenant Contracting Services"

"We had an extensive project schedule, as I made quite a few design, materials and color changes and project additions throughout.  Concrete work was done first. The driveway, which was a disaster for many years and contributed to leakage back into the garage due to poor grading, is beautiful and functions perfectly.  I have no more problems with drainage.
The den is a great space now, and after changing my mind on colors for the walls and fireplace brick several times, it turned out wonderfully.
The bathroom and all the prep and remainder of the work took several months overall. If I had made my selections beforehand and stuck to them, the bathroom probably would have been done within a few weeks, The individual stages (demo, rough-in, plumbing and electric, installation, all were done quickly. Then we had to stop for me to make decisions and order stuff. My new bathroom is AWESOME. OK, so I changed my mind about 30 times, but I have to take a little credit as I came up with the layout myself. John helped me to work out the kinks and had many good suggestions. He had LOTS of patience!
I highly recommend John and his company, Dream Remodelers. He will help you through your remodeling angst and get the job done for a reasonable price. He really does care about what he does and the quality of the work. And he will stick with the job until it is completed! I can't tell you how important that is. John is easy to get hold of, communicates frequently and is there when he says he will be.
What's next? Another bathroom, a new deck...

Barndominium Builders FAQs, answered by experts

Average barndominiums last between 50 and 150 years depending on the materials they are made from, how well they are maintained, and the environment they are built in. Barndominiums are very durable and have a much longer lifespan than traditional wood homes. With proper care and maintenance, well-built barndominium homes can last generations. 

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.

Rather than using a common two-by-four piece of wood for a rafter, you probably will use two-by-six, two-by-eight, two-by-ten, or even two-by-twelve boards. Wider lumber is typically a better choice in a larger building as it provides more sturdiness. Some installers may use wider lumber for rafters near the edges of the roof, where the greatest stress occurs, and save money with narrower lumber toward the middle.

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.

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.
