"We hired Bob Phalan to replace the surrounding trim after we had installed new garage doors. He estimated 1½ days. But upon removal of the exist aluminum siding, structural damage including carpenter ant damage and a rusted-cracked lally column were discovered. Bob made required repairs replacing 2x4s, the lally column, plywood, insulation, wall board, and plastering. Then he was able to begin work on the vinyl trim. We showed Bob a photo of the “look” we wanted to achieve and he achieved it perfectly. He was at our home for 3 very long days, the cost of his work was very reasonable."

"Khaled and his team did a fantastic job designing and building our large custom 3-season sun room with sunken hot tub. Khaled had great design sensibilities and took the time to discuss every detail with us. He is a perfectionist and only picked top materials and more time consuming finishes. Communication was great all along, and the crews were friendly, skilled, and kept the site clean. We love our new room, which perfectly matches our old house in Wellesley"

"Todd and Dave did a wonderful job on my new kitchen floor and they also did repairs for ice dam damage along with several small plumbing issues. They are very personable and willing to do even the smallest service. They listen carefully and are very accommodating. Their work is excellent, they are tidy and careful of their surroundings. I have already asked them to return for additional projects and I highly recommend them."

"Tom Cromer was great to work with throughout the project. He personally came by the house several times before the project started to discuss the details of the work?often in the evening or on weekends to accommodate my schedule. He did a lot of the work himself and watched his crew's work closely. When the project was done he did several "final passes" with me to ensure I was happy with the results before collecting the final payment.
Tom was easy to talk to and always easy to reach. He endured several project changes and delays caused by my electrical contractor without a complaint (or a charge), even canceling a family vacation to keep a few of his projects on track. The team that works for him are talented, friendly, and were very respectful of the house.
From the beginning, Tom and his crew were very collaborative and amenable to all requests I made. He wisely challenged a few of my ideas when he was convinced I wouldn't be happy with the results. At one point he even did some extra work to show me the solution he thought I'd like better. He was right each time. He never nickel-and-dimed over the details of the project and was completely transparent over the expenses incurred at my request (structural engineer, trash removal, etc).

Pole Barn Builders FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.

It is recommended that you check with your local building official on barn building requirements and rules, since size restrictions vary greatly from region to region based on what your property is zoned for. Some cities limit barn construction depending on if your property is residential or commercial. The three main factors your building commission will evaluate are:

  • Height and lot coverage: How tall your barn is and how much of your total property it occupies

  • Setback: Distance between barn and property line

  • Easement: Legal right for another owner to access another’s property

You don’t typically need a permit to build a shed, but it’s best to check with your local city clerk to make sure before you start the project. Every town, city, and municipality can have different rules when it comes to any home improvement project. Homeowners associations sometimes have restrictions on the materials you can use on your property as well.

Ranch and colonial-style homes are often the most affordable to build. They have a common layout with available designs that are easy to adjust in simple ways without having to spend too much on a structural engineer or architect. Both types of homes' symmetry, simple roofs, and often one or two-story plans mean they often fall in the $150 to $200 square-foot range, putting them right around average.
