"Spenser has tackled every project with the care and thoroughness you'd think would come from someone who is an expert working on his own home. He grasps the big picture, handles everything quickly and efficiently, but also gives advice on missed details and takes care of them. Our barn not only looks beautiful, but also is in better shape than it was.."

"I had a great experience working with Emerald remodeling to redo the bathroom and layout in the basement of our home. They came highly recommended from a friend and delivered a significantly lower bid from other estimates from both a cost and timeline standpoint. Throughout the process, the owner was very patient with our queries and was a great communicator, often responding quickly to our questions and helping us through any changes in direction the project needed. The end result was exactly the basement bathroom setup we needed for our family. I could not recommend Emerald Remodeling enough, and will certainly work with them on any future projects. Thank you!"

"I hired Twin City Home Services to tear down a wall, correct plumbing/electrical in my kitchen, and upgrade a custom workspace desk. All the work was expertly done on a timely basis. I really can't say enough good things about TCHS. Easily a 10/10. My house is older and has some unique features and they adapted and corrected. TCHS was reasonably priced and HONEST. I had some scope changes where they could have taken advantage but did not. I recommend TCHS for most projects. I'll never call anyone else."

"Voyager concrete put in my shed pad and did an excellent job. I got 3 different bids and there bid was by far the most competitive AND they did excellent work. I worked with Mitch who was always very responsive and easy to work with on this project. The 2 man crew was very efficient, clearly knew what they were doing and spent extra time making sure the grade was correct and surface finished the way I wanted. I would hire these guys again in a second"

Barndominium Builders questions, answered by experts

Barns and barndominiums are most commonly painted red, like barns depicted in movies and paintings. The practice of painting barns red dates back to America’s colonial days, when new farmers would borrow the European practice of mixing linseed oil with ferrous oxide to coat the barns in order to protect them from the elements, leaving the structures with a red color.

Whether it is better to buy or build a chicken coop depends on your priorities, primarily cost versus time and effort. Building your own chicken coop can be significantly more budget-friendly, often costing about half as much as buying a pre-made one. If you have the time and skills, building a coop from scratch is the most economical option. However, if your time or skills are limited, buying a kit and hiring a handyperson to assemble it can be more cost-effective than hiring a carpenter to build a custom coop from scratch. If you want a perfectly constructed coop without sacrificing your own time and energy, buying one is the easiest choice.

Choose a barn door with an extra two to three inches on either side of the frame. The width of the barn door will depend on the type and placement of your track, but in most cases, an additional inch or two will do the trick.

Building a barndominium means converting a barn into a house. Barndominiums are becoming popular as spacious and stylish alternatives to typical housing structures. Old barns that become houses traditionally consist of wooden construction. However, newer structures, such as pole barns, often contain metal exteriors and roofs. Converting a metal outbuilding into a house presents an excellent opportunity to create a barndominium from metal.

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.
