"Daniel and his crew did a good job planning and completing the project of adding 500 sq ft to the back of my house. That included demolition of back porch and fireplace, expanding the living room, primary bedroom, primary bathroom and large walk-in closet. We worked well together in the design and execution of my dream home. The best way to communicate with Daniel is by text."

"Albert was amazing! He installed viga beams in an existing, non-square room. He added a closet to an existing bedroom. Created an ensuite by moving a door, added a barn door. So professional, very communicative with progress, timely, efficient, easy to work with and came up with some creative and beautiful solutions. Completely trustworthy, had him work while we were out of town, worksite was spotless both during and after. Cannot recommend highly enough!"

"Working alongside Mesa Verde on this new construction project was an outstanding experience from start to finish. Their team demonstrated exceptional professionalism, craftsmanship, and attention to detail throughout every phase of the build. As the main builder, Mesa Verde maintained strong communication, stayed organized, and consistently delivered high-quality work while keeping the project moving efficiently and on schedule. From Durabuild’s perspective as project manager, the collaboration was seamless. Mesa Verde’s leadership team was proactive, solution-oriented, and highly responsive whenever coordination or adjustments were needed. Their commitment to quality and teamwork made a significant impact on the success of the project and created a positive working environment for everyone involved. We truly value the partnership and look forward to future opportunities to collaborate with Mesa Verde again. They are a dependable and highly capable builder that we would confidently"

"The crew that worked on this remodel, led by Alejandro, were prompt in arriving, patient with our questions, and very responsive to our requests. They were very skilled and thorough, and completely changed our home for the better. I highly recommend this company, since it provides full services, such that plumbing and electrical are available from within the organization, as opposed to waiting for subcontractors to respond."

"This is Donna Robinson. Below is my review for L Martinez Construction LLC (Lionel Martinez) L Martinez Construction LLC has completed three building projects for us. The first project was a remodel of an existing home. This project included the demolition of our existing front entry, the addition of a large front porch, decorative rock work on the exterior walls and the bricking of the exterior porch. The entire existing home was reroofed with industrial grade shingles as well. We were very happy with the quality of Lionel s finished work. We had bid this project out to 3 other highly recommended contractors and although Lionel was not the lowest bidder, we had the most confidence in his proposal because he included the most detail on his bid and had a firm grasp on the time frame for completion of the project. His proposal showed me how organized Lionel is and how much of a stickler for detail he is. For me, both are very important character traits when hiring and working with someone. As we progressed through the project we learned just how knowledgeable, experienced and resourceful Lionel is. It was also clear he is very selective on subcontractors he hires, expects exceptional work out of them, and actively monitors their work. Finally, at the close of the project we could see that not only does he accept only high-quality work from himself but he is on top of every detail on costs of his projects. He presented us with a detailed report and walked my husband through every line item. Lionel is an honest businessman as well. We were very happy with our whole experience with the first project, so when we decided we wanted a heated driveway installed (2nd project) we went straight to Lionel. He helped us choose and plan for an electric heated driveway system. He prepared a bid detailing all costs including demolition of the existing driveway. Lionel did an excellent job installing our heated driveway, monitoring the electric installation and personally executing the concrete pour from start to finish. Next, we decided we wanted to build a cabin in the remote northern NM mountains (3rd project). Of course, knowing this would be a particularly challenging project, I asked Lionel if he would work with us one more time. He worked with us on every detail of this project. Lionel worked with our home designer on planning and details and navigated the complex permitting process. Next, he prepared the site by moving the electrical lines underground on our property, working with electricians to physically prepare the trenches and conduits to move these electrical lines underground and finally built the cabin. This was a huge undertaking, given the remote location and challenging building conditions. The result was A++. We simply could not be happier with the outcome of the projects Lionel completed for us and more grateful to Lionel and for Lionel. My view is: If you are fortunate enough to have Lionel work on a project for you, you will be very happy with the results and with the whole experience. I have every confidence recommending him as your contractor/project leader. Donna Robinson"

Barndominium Builders questions, answered by experts

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.

This answer varies based on where you are, but most states require that all homes are greater than 320 square feet. Remember that four walls are not the only requirements—windows, closet space, minimal ceiling heights, and indoor air quality are also factors. Each state and municipality differs, though, and as some don’t consider tiny homes permanent shelters, you’ll need to check to ensure you aren’t violating any local or state laws with your build.

Your foundation contractor will first need to remove the topsoil and any vegetation within 4 feet of the area around the barn. They’ll need to ensure they have clear access to the site to begin excavation, after which they can begin construction.

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.

There's no simple answer to which is less costly: wood or metal-framed homes. In most cases, metal building components cost more than wooden ones, while entire metal buildings cost less than wooden versions. However, regardless of the exterior framing or structure, each must meet similar building codes. This means that the costs are about the same, even considering that wood will require more maintenance than metal over time.
