"Gordon Construction is awesome! Tanya was prompt in responding to my request for a deck repair. She sent me my estimate as quickly as she could. I am extremely impressed with Austin and his partner! They re great time managers, highly professional young men, and are very knowledgeable of what they do! I will definitely call them back for every single home improvement project I will have in the future."

"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!"

Barndominium Builders FAQs, answered by experts

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 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. 

The most common slope, or roof pitch, for a shed is 4:12 or four inches of height for every horizontal foot. For areas that experience heavy snow loads, a steeper roof of 6:12 or 9:12 is best. 

The best lumber for building will be the strongest and most eco-friendly wood your budget allows. That being said, Douglas fir, pine, oak, and maple are all common building materials. Contractors will use a strong, inexpensive wood to frame a house or other structure and finer woods like mahogany for detail work. 

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.
