"I would recommend this company. They were reasonably priced. Suggestions made but no pressure put on me to agree to it. I wish I would have gone with them for the initial build of my deck. Job was done quickly and expertly."

"Alberto was great to work with! He's such a positive and friendly guy and was quick to knock a lot of odd jobs off my list. All the jobs from electrical work to installation were done thoughtfully and quickly. I'd definitely work with MPO Builders again.

"The rep that came out was young, but very knowledgeable of general mechanical, electrical and home maintenance skills.  He knew exactly how to appropriately position and attach the ceiling rack to the ceiling joists in the garage (they were hidden because of the garage ceiling) so that it would be firmly mounted and hold it's specified weight.
I had tried fixing the storm door from rubbing on the door jamb with no success.  He was able to fix this problem by driving screws into the edge of the storm door itself at the point of binding to pull it closer to it's internal wood frame.
Reversing the position of the electrical switches was a simple task for him.
He was very polite, pleasant and respectful the entire time at my house.  The $65.00 fee was an Angie's List special for two hours of work.  He finished in exactly two hours and did not waste any time.

Pole Barn Builders FAQs, answered by experts

A simple A-frame chicken coop can take as little as three hours to build, but a more substantial all-in-one coop to house a large flock can take four or five days to build. Consult a local handyperson or custom coop builder for a time estimate based on the specific details of your project.

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 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.

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.

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.
