"Tom is very professional and fair. This was an addition to an existing home, so there ended up being additional work that needed to be done to the original structure that was not anticipated. But we found Tom to be earnest and trustworthy in his assessment of which work was a priority, and which was not. Despite the additional cost for this additional work, the cost for the original work came in on budget. Quality of work was very good."

"Brawny Builders was great on all accounts. They helped with the design of our project which included a new front entrance, large rear deck, a couple sections of fence and an outdoor shower. They had a competitive quote and we’re able to start quickly. Their crew was hard working, very courteous and customer focused. The project was completed within the agreed timeframe and slightly under budget. The best thing about working with Brawny Builders was their effectiveness in communicating with me about all phases of the project. We’ve worked with many contractors over our years and no one comes to Brawny Builders in their customer relations. I would definitely use them again and highly recommend them."

"We just purchased our first home, which we love for its historic character. So much of the original house was still in place when we moved in, including the windows. And while we loved them for their historic charm, they were in pretty terrible shape. We chose Legacy and they did a superb job installing the perfect windows that blended perfectly with the rest of our home. We would not have gone a different way with that selection."

Barndominium Builders questions, answered by experts

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.

Building a tiny house is the least complicated way to build, especially if you’re tackling the project as a DIY. The smaller size means less complex plans, more straightforward utility installation, and fewer ways to make costly errors. Tiny homes still need to conform to building codes and often have other applicable regulations, so be sure to get the proper permits and confirm your build is by the book.

The most significant expense when building a barndominium is constructing the metal shell, which includes the roof, doors, and windows. Additional exterior components impacting the overall cost include metal siding and the concrete foundation.

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

Yes, you can use a storage shed several ways, including as a chicken coop, but you'll need to make some modifications. You will have to add a chicken door, roosts, ventilation near the roof, mesh on the windows, and insulation if you live in a colder climate. Additionally, you’ll want to ensure that the shed is predator-proof so no other animals can harm your chickens. You should also add a run and nest boxes to your shed.
