"Excellent! Emile and his crews were complete professionals in all aspects of the project and relationship. We communicated frequently and stayed on schedule. His men arrived on time and were respectful, organized and always cleaned up at the end of the day. Their workmanship is beautiful. Emile kept me up-to-date daily on progress and had great suggestions. He managed my expectations from our first conversation and throughout the project. Overall I had a great experience and would not hesitate using him again."

"All of the work was done quickly, professionally, and met my high standards. The only problem arose when they installed my railings while I was out without having me select the style. I came home on the last day of work and everything was complete, even railings that I had not seen or approved. Initially, I didn't want to make them redo it. I thought I could live with it. I paid in full and they left. Ernesto called my husband to make sure we were happy. Everything seemed great, the work was well done, and everyone was professional. However, a few days later I realized I really hated the materials they chose for me. When my husband called back to see if they could change out the railings for us, they said it would cost about $500. I know I paid in full and approved the job, but after $8,000 worth of work, I thought it distasteful to be charged more money to change out materials that I never approved in the first place. I recommend their work, but be sure you approve every single material prior to installation.

"We contracted with VW Home Improvement to do our bathroom renovation. It was a complete tear down/rebuild and we couldn’t be happier that we chose VW, as the job they did was beyond our expectations. After meeting Vinny and talking to him about the process, we felt his calm, low-key approach to the project, along with his experience was exactly what we needed. We’re aware that no construction process is ever perfect, but this was as close to perfection as it gets. Sure, we had a delay one day, but Vinny made sure that time was made up and the project proceeded pretty much on schedule. As far as the quality of the work is concerned, that, too, was exceptional, and the communication between Vinny, his crew and us was beyond excellent. We never had to wait for a return call or text, and Vinny always called us with updates and information. I won’t hesitate to contract VW for any future projects and would recommend them to anyone."

Barndominium Builders questions, answered by experts

Building a tiny house is the least complicated way to build, especially if you’re tackling the project as a DIY. The smaller size means less complex plans, more straightforward utility installation, and fewer ways to make costly errors. Tiny homes still need to conform to building codes and often have other applicable regulations, so be sure to get the proper permits and confirm your build is by the book.

Any type of construction that damages a tree’s roots via soil compaction can be dangerous, and is one of the primary causes of mature tree death in residential areas. Simply putting lots of weight on the ground around the tree, like construction supplies, trailers, and equipment, can kill roots near the surface. Of course, installing new foundations, patios, or utility lines can cut through nearby tree roots. Accidentally striking a tree with equipment or supplies is rarely a problem, but can cause damage of its own, too.

Concrete blocks are the cheapest way to base a shed. However, the space in between allows critters to go under, burrow, and even damage your shed’s frame. For a more pest-proof option, consider building a shed base with gravel or paver stones. Both options are fairly affordable and easy enough for a DIY project. For gravel, you can build a wooden frame to contain the loose material.

Skid foundations, deck block foundations, and concrete block foundations are the most affordable shed foundation options. Of these, we recommend deck blocks. Deck blocks are easy to install and level, and they raise your shed up off the ground to prevent rotting from exposure to water and moisture. Keep in mind that deck blocks won’t resist soil movement or frost heave, so they’re not ideal in areas with expansive soil or a deep frost line.

Yes, barn doors can be too heavy, although the limitation is usually imposed by the mounting hardware you buy and not your home’s framing, unless you’re building an unusually wide door. To keep the weight down, you can opt for 1-by material rather than 2-by material, and choose a softwood like pine rather than a hardwood like maple or oak. Check the weight limits on your mounting hardware, and always attach your door track to studs rather than to drywall anchors.
