"Have used Joe 3 times now. First to replace 4 exterior doors. Second to refinish some interior paint and trim. Lastly for a complete kitchen remodel. Each and every time he was prompt and very professional with great attention to detail. He has a permanent place in my address book and will certainly be called on again, probably sooner than later."

"American Home Contractors replaced my home's roof and gutters. I had an excellent experience from start to finish. John, the Project Coordinator, was professional, attentive to my needs throughout the project, flexible with the scheduling, and willing to work with me on the price. The project was completed in a timely manner and the workmanship was great. I would highly recommend American Home Contractors!"

"Gary was great! I lived on the 2nd floor of an old building and it was 24 steps up and 24 steps down with a lot of furniture and boxes. He and his crew moved quickly and efficiently and didn’t let the stairs slow them down. I would definitely use Mr. Grant for my next move!! Thanks for making this an easy and successful transition into my new place!!!"

Pole Barn Builders questions, answered by experts

While prices fluctuate because of increased demand, fewer supplies, and engineering time, OSB generally remains more affordable than plywood at $1 to $2.40 per square foot compared to the $4.50 to $10 for plywood. Cost is only one factor you should consider when deciding between OSB and plywood.

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.

The lifespan of a barn is typically 40 to 60 years, but with skillful construction and proper maintenance, it can last up to 100 years. The actual lifespan depends on several factors, including the barn type, materials, usage, and climate. For example, the posts of a pole barn should last 50 years or longer, but if the structure is used for livestock in a rainy climate, it may rot within the first decade. Custom designs with high-end materials tend to last the longest. To get the best estimate for your barn's lifespan, you should consider its material type and intended use.

Whether you buy a prefabricated shed or build one depends on why you need it and where you stay. For instance, if a simple garden shed is what you’re after, it’ll be less expensive to buy one already built. But if you want a shed with windows, plumbing, and electric work, a custom-built unit might be more suited to your needs.

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.
