Customers say: Quality work

"They are not local to my area. Please, hire local. And this is for Angi: Try not to recommend contractors who are a significant distance away, in this case around 80 miles (and 2 states) away. Great website, appears to be professionally designed and maintained, I like what they do (judging from the content in the website) but I am outside their service area. I don't live in that area. If I owned a home or apartment in that area, I would hire them."

"Had to get a porch and railing repaired. I needed it done quickly in case there was any snow or ice. Had a quote from another contractor, but he never followed up. Two other companies gave me much higher quotes. I explained the need for speed and Continental Construction gave me a very reasonable price and performed the service only two days later(they mightâ ve gotten it done the next day, but for the rain). On top of the project being completed quickly and at a reasonable price, something came up at my job, and I was unable to drive to meet Wilmer to pay him, but he was kind enough to drive over and meet me in front of my office."

"I couldn't be happier with the work rioza did on my home, from the very beginning, their team was professional, respectful, and attentive to every detail. They transformed my house into a beautiful, modern space while still keeping the warmth and character I love, what impressed me the most was how quickly they completed the project without sacrificing quality !"

"Very professional and friendly. I chose to complete the project myself. I thought the estimate I received was a little expensive. If the estimate I received was lower, I would have definitely hired them for my painting needs."

"We hired Michael to renovate our 100-year-old farmhouse-style colonial, and the results were outstanding. He managed a full kitchen overhaul, including an addition that expanded the space and added a hallway—dramatically improving the home's flow. He also built a beautiful new deck, refinished the original oak floors, painted every room, and updated two bathrooms, including a custom shower with French stone tile. Michael’s communication was excellent—clear, timely, and always professional. His attention to detail and high-quality craftsmanship showed in every phase of the project. Most importantly, he took a truly consultative approach, offering thoughtful guidance while always respecting our vision. Highly recommend!"

Barndominium Builders FAQs, answered by experts

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.

While it’s best to have access to large, healthy, strong trees in a safe position, treehouse living is still possible without them. Contractors can fit tree posts to build the structure onto or use posts as additional support alongside the trees themselves. If you’re in doubt about the suitability of the trees on your land, consult with a local treehouse builder before you start the project.

A steel frame costs 10% to 20% more than a wood frame. Wood is a much easier material to work with, more accessible, and generally more affordable than steel—plus, you need specialized tools to work with steel.

While building a treehouse isn’t necessarily a death sentence, damaging the trunk is one of the ways to kill a tree. If you’re concerned about the tree, opt for a treehouse support system rather than attaching it directly to the trunk. This may involve using bolts and brackets to affix the structure to the tree's branches or establishing a standalone support system that remains unattached to the tree.

Tiny houses, often called tiny homes, need between 100 to 400 square feet, with the most common size being between 200 and 300 square feet. Tiny houses more than 400 square feet venture into apartment-size dwellings and may be considered more of a traditional house than a tiny home. The number of occupants, desired lifestyle, and furniture will all be major factors that determine the desired tiny house size.
