"This is our third major experience with Charles Wyles and his son, Joel. My wife and I cannot praise them too highly. We have had problems with follow through using local contractors in this rural part of Montana. Charles and Joel always showed up on time and ready to work hard and finish the job on time. They are highly skilled at every aspect of remodeling. We gave them a major challenge in nearly rebuilding and, certainly, saving a 75 year-old log cabin. They did everything from rebuilding the damaged central beam that was holding the roof up to re-roofing most of the cabin. We were so pleased with the quality of their work that we asked them to return to finish the foundation after the prior contractor abandoned us for more lucrative projects. The third project was the largest and most challenging. They built us custom kitchen cabinets exactly as my wife designed them with additional improvements they suggested. They finished the kitchen by tiling the countertops and backsplashes and installing a new sink. All of The work was absolutely top notch with excellent communication along the way. The project also included installing new floors in four rooms and setting a new toilet. No subcontractors involved because these two gentlemen can do it all. All of our project came in on budget with the estimates we initially agreed upon. I wish I could submit before and after photos. Speaking of gentlemen- Charles and Joel are originally from Arkansas. They are true southern gentlemen- polite, respectful and conscientious. On two of the projects, they stayed in the cabin because their home in Stevensville, Montana is an hour and a half away from our home. They had dinner with us each night and we eventually had most of their large family come up to visit. They almost feel like family now. By the way, they left the cabin immaculate and even picked up debris from the former foundation contractor. In addition to this, they are licensed, insured and bonded. You don’t always find this in rural Montana. It adds extra peace of mind."

"Preston of G-1 Plumbing performed the services and addressed the toilet & drain problem. He was unable to stop leak(made it worse) & submitted his recs to Choice Home for review. I was unable to understand Choice Home's response regarding the faucet leak. Their review stated faucet needed to be replaced BUT it was under "builder's warranty." I built this home in 2005. There is no "builder's warranty" now. I cancelled the proposed work order & paid out-of-pocket. A Friend, who was familiar with my builder and knows faucet components, came to my home, adjusted/cleaned the faucet cartridge and stopped the leak. The CHW tech, Preston, is conscientiuos, however, IMHO lacked the knowledge & experience to stop my leak. Home Warranty Companies, at least in my area, hire owner/operators who need the work to build their business and are NOT the most experienced/knowledgeable & are willing to work for less money. In my experience, Home Warranty Companies want the CHEAPEST resolution, not the BEST. I would recommend G-1 Plumbing for most plumbing issues."

Barndominium Builders questions, answered by experts

The foundation for a pole barn should be at least 36 inches thick to ensure that the piers won’t shift from frost heave.

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

While sheds are most certainly helpful for most homeowners, unfortunately, sheds do not add value to a home or property in the traditional sense. However, if the home has limited storage or garage space, having a shed to store things like decorations or lawn equipment can certainly be a positive if you want to sell.

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.

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.
