"Dennis was great! Insulated under my mobile home and put new skirting around the bottom. It took approx 4 days. Did the work while I was not home and looks great! Even fixed some of the driveway to around the home to do the job the right way!!"

"I was very impressed from the start of the quote process with JR, through the comprehensive work from his painting and construction crews to the final inspection of US ProPaint's quality and timely work. Our home is a 1768 Cape with a barn in need of a lot of repairs prior to painting. Their work went above and beyond by adding, without charge, some minor but notable "surprises' not included in the quote. JR clearly views customer satisfaction and exceeding expectations as goal #1."

"Mike did a teriffic job on a dropped ceiling in our basement. He worked with us to figure out how to cover various plumbing while keeping max ceiling height and a nice appearance. He built a soffit and installed lighting. We are very happy with the results and recommend Mike highly."

"I highly recommend Claudios Painting for anyone seeking help with their home improvement projects. They were professional, detail oriented and extremely helpful with suggestions on how to fix the repairs effectively. The quality of workmanship was excellent and they were always true to their word in all aspects, including showing up when promised. Communication was through and detailed with pictures showing the work that was being done. I would definitely use Claudioâ s painting again."

"We were so pleased with the results. We had a complete home renovation. Al was so kind and not only listened, but homored our requests. He worked with us on the details of our plans. It was not your typical home reno as Al had to correct all of the work of a prior contractor. Al was reassuring and not only delivered on his promises, but produced such quality workmanship. The same goes for those he contracts with especially the painters. We have been living in our home now for two years and it's exactly as he promised: it feels like home, a place we always want to come back to. Thanks Al."

Barndominium Builders questions, 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.

There's no simple answer to which is less costly: wood or metal-framed homes. In most cases, metal building components cost more than wooden ones, while entire metal buildings cost less than wooden versions. However, regardless of the exterior framing or structure, each must meet similar building codes. This means that the costs are about the same, even considering that wood will require more maintenance than metal over time.

Due to the expansion of the tiny house movement, you can usually find tiny houses to buy in your state. Prices range considerably based on size, style, and type. If you’re looking for a tiny home that’s move-in ready, you may be able to find a good deal to buy or a prefab dealer near you. 

Yes, barn doors can be too heavy, although the limitation is usually imposed by the mounting hardware you buy and not your home’s framing, unless you’re building an unusually wide door. To keep the weight down, you can opt for 1-by material rather than 2-by material, and choose a softwood like pine rather than a hardwood like maple or oak. Check the weight limits on your mounting hardware, and always attach your door track to studs rather than to drywall anchors.

Whether a prefab home is worth it or not will depend on your personal needs and preferences. Overall, prefab homes tend to cost less than traditional homes, although they also tend to have lower resale values. Another thing to consider is that prefab homes usually last 50 to 60 years or longer, while traditional homes last 50 to 100 years or more.
