"Brandon was easy to talk to. Very prompt to arrive on time. The entire job took a bit longer than we thought, but Brandon was always upfront about his schedule. His work ethic is exceptional. And his helper was friendly as well. We felt completely comfortable with them. And Brandon did not ask for any money up front. There, of course, may be different scenarios where he would need some money upfront. But we thought that was a sign of respect and trust. Although we were at home throughout the job, we would have been very ok with not being here as well. Great job!!!"

"This is a fantastic organization. I wish I could give more than 5 stars because my experience was the best I have ever had working with a contractor. The Project Manager (Josh) was always available for questions from us and available for the installers. He was a very knowledgeable individual. Management (Todd) was very visible during our installation and this entire organization gave more than 100% in the completion of our installation. I just hope that if and when we have future needs it will be within this organization's realm. I have been spoiled and cannot imagine working with any other contractor for any of our future needs."

Barndominium Builders questions, answered by experts

Pole barns and carports are similar in that they rely on posts for support and are often not connected to a primary structure. The main difference between the two is that pole barns usually include walls that surround the entire perimeter of the structure, while carports generally remain open on three or four sides. It’s possible to insulate garage doors and even exterior walls on pole barns to create a comfortable workspace, and it’s a bit more secure for storage purposes. However, carports are more affordable.

Whether pole barn posts should be set in concrete depends on the soil surrounding your home. If your soil is compact and digging conditions are agreeable, then setting pole barn posts in concrete is an ideal option.

Your chicken coop needs to be off the ground to protect your chickens and avoid problems brought on by flooding, mud, and moisture. If you can't locate a high area to build the coop, you should build an elevated coop to ensure it stays dry. 

Depending on your needs, you may find a storebought pole barn is a much less expensive option than a custom-built one. You can find pole barn kits from big box retailers starting at $11,000, but you will be limited when it comes to size and add-on features. As long as you have the necessary skills, you can save on labor costs by doing it yourself; but there are a lot of different skill sets you would need, and mistakes during the building process can lead to excessive repair bills later.

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.
