"ok but I had to call them back to correct a problem with the stairs that were not evenly spaced. As I am fall due to Multiple Sclerosis, this is a major problrm for me., They did do a fix and I will pass final judgement after the winter. Nice, polite crew to have working at my home. I even made them a pan of brownies to share!"

"My husband and I absolutely love our new home. We hired Bellevue Builders Co. to do a complete gut and renovation on our summer home in Yarmouth. The result far surpassed our expectations. The quality of work was top notch and the pricing was very fair along with the experience that Larry gave us from start to finish. He was so friendly and it was obvious that he really wanted to make sure that we got exactly what we were asking for. On top of that he did give us some great design ideas as well. We give Bellevue Builders .Co an A+ and will surely be hiring them again in the future."

Barndominium Builders FAQs, answered by experts

Whether pole barn posts should be set in concrete depends on the soil surrounding your home. If your soil is compact and digging conditions are agreeable, then setting pole barn posts in concrete is an ideal option.

It’s much less expensive to build a house with wood. This is because wood is relatively inexpensive, strong enough to endure decades or even centuries of weathering and pressure, and is easier to replace if there are issues. The cost of stone houses are incredibly expensive, heavy, time-consuming to build, and difficult to repair. 

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

It may be tempting to DIY the construction of a swing set to save money, but we don’t recommend it. Since children will use the swing set, the entire system must be solid and safe, meaning the cost savings aren’t worth potentially endangering them. Plus, most DIYers will have to build their swing sets out of wood, which won’t last as long as metal or vinyl and introduces the risk of splinters. Instead, hire a local playground equipment installer to ensure the swing set is built safely and efficiently, setting up your kids for fun for years to come.

Pole barns and carports are similar in that they rely on posts for support and are often not connected to a primary structure. The main difference between the two is that pole barns usually include walls that surround the entire perimeter of the structure, while carports generally remain open on three or four sides. It’s possible to insulate garage doors and even exterior walls on pole barns to create a comfortable workspace, and it’s a bit more secure for storage purposes. However, carports are more affordable.
