"I chose Mr. Jesinoski after looking at the local Angie's list and I made the right choice. Mr. Jesinoski came at the agreed upon time and installed the unit per the IKEA instructions (I didn't think it would work); all the time explaining to my daughter about the different wall configurations and installation options. My daughter rates him A+ and I do too. Thank you very much"

"We had Garden Structures & More add onto the beautiful privacy fence they had previously built for us, and we couldn't be happier with the final result. Our new and improved fence is even better than we had envisioned due to owner/designer/craftsman Hal's excellent ideas. All work was completed in a timely and professional manner. We truly enjoyed working with Hal and wouldn't hesitate to have him do our next home project. "

"I purchased a deal on Angie's List from this company, and the owner responded within 24 hours to schedule a time to do the work. The work was completed at the agreed time, and I am very pleased with the results. The 2 men who did the work were very efficient, and communicated with me on what to expect with the process. The quality of the work was excellent.

They provide other general construction services in addition to the driveway work they did for me. Based on my experience with this deal, I would definitely consider them for my next construction project."

"From the time I first contacted him until the job was completed he explained exactly when, what and how he would be able to do the necessary work. Besides being forthright about the time required, he was full of useful information about what to look for in quality tile materials and maintenance tips. Before beginning the work, he laid down protective tarps in our outside hallway. After cleaning the tile of soap residue, he removed and replaced all of the grouting, including all of the hardware fixtures. He gave our bathroom a completely fresh, sparkling look. Also, he completely cleaned up after the job so no telltale debris was left behind."

"Everything was done better and faster than I expected! They were very knowledgeable about paints and the process. They even took on a few extra projects I needed painted such as some exterior cement wall and our porch swing. Very kind and professional!"

"We described what our concerns were and since we had previously had Tom and Andy as handymen we felt confident that they would do what needed to be done to give our deck and porch a fresh look.  We have no complaints with the guys nor the work they did.
We'd recommend these guys  along with Cady Handyman Services to family and friends."

"I was really happy with Justin and his team. For me this was a big job and involved a lot of money and a lot of moving parts. The ceiling texturing had been poorly done so removal was not as simple as scraping popcorn ceilings. The house had many different dark colored walls so the painting over them was not a simple task either. Justin is very meticulous and thorough and his crew is polite and determined to get everything just right. I can recommend them without any hesitation whatsoever."

"Professionally and quickly done.  Clean up after was good.  Had one question after installation which was answered quickly and to my satisfaction.  Price was right in the ballpark with other companies I had  estimates from.  Their advantage was the awning window.  I love it!"

Pole Barn 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.

It is almost always more affordable to buy an existing home than to build a new one. Building a home involves numerous costs, including labor, permits, inspections, utility hookups, and brand-new materials, finishes, and appliances. Additionally, new construction loans can have higher interest rates than traditional mortgages, and property taxes on new homes are often higher, increasing long-term costs. An exception is a DIY house build, which can be cheaper than buying an existing home if you do the labor yourself. While building is generally more expensive, a new custom home offers complete control over the layout and design. Furthermore, new construction is typically worth more than a comparable pre-owned home and may provide a better return on investment if sold quickly.

You may need a local building permit and written permission from your homeowner’s association to install a shed, especially if you’re doing any substantial land clearing or installing electricity or plumbing. Permit requirements vary between municipalities, so research the local laws before starting your project. If you hire a contractor to build the shed, they can help determine which permits will be necessary.

A 5x8 trailer can fit a queen-sized bed plus additional items. It is one of the most common sizes for enclosed cargo trailers, open utility trailers, and dump trailers. U-Haul, a national trailer rental company serving most U.S. markets, claims its 5x8 enclosed trailer can tow up to 1,800 pounds.

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.
