"He did my bathrooms last year and they came out way better than expected ! He did such a good job I hired him again to remodel my living room and bedroom! We have an old house. He is very knowledgable, skilled and experienced that the problems we ran into he not only took care of, but superceded our expectations. For all the work he did the price was phenominal. I would recommend him to everyone! In fact we have another project in mind for him to do next year."

"Rich and his team have done several restorations. First and foremost he put in a new bathroom upstairs, from the plumbing to all the fixtures, insulation wiring everything that is required and a job well done! They also re-wired the house for a 200amp service from pole to house then took on running new wire from house to barn then to shed. All passed with flying colors. He also took on blowing insulation into the attics, what a difference the first summer and winter that year! Rich and his team helps with good guidance on this old farmhouse. They always came through, looking forward to their help in the future."

"Jeorge is easy to work with. He is a straight shooter and keeps you informed. He even shored up some gutters as he was replacing the soffits. The work went smoothly in spite of several periods of rain. The quality of the work is very good. He and his helper worked quietly - no music or cursing. I would definitely consider him for any other construction related work."

"Loay Jabbar provided the information I needed quickly and clearly. I immediately signed up for full coverages for our two homes because of the discounts offered and because of the quality of service that Loay is saying and promising Choice Home Warranty provides to its customers. I have bad experiences with other home warranty companies so I am hoping I found the best company that would deliver the best service."

Barndominium Builders FAQs, 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.

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.

Average barndominiums last between 50 and 150 years depending on the materials they are made from, how well they are maintained, and the environment they are built in. Barndominiums are very durable and have a much longer lifespan than traditional wood homes. With proper care and maintenance, well-built barndominium homes can last generations. 

Whether a prefab home is worth it or not will depend on your personal needs and preferences. Overall, prefab homes tend to cost less than traditional homes, although they also tend to have lower resale values. Another thing to consider is that prefab homes usually last 50 to 60 years or longer, while traditional homes last 50 to 100 years or more.

If you’re building a pole barn in place of a traditional home, lenders usually don’t offer traditional mortgages for these structures. You can also expect higher insulation costs and building permits may not be allowed in your area. Even if you’re just using a pole barn as storage or as a shelter for animals, these structures are less durable than steel buildings and require more maintenance.
