"Eddie was great to work with! We had a limited time frame to adhere to town inspections and Eddie and his team knew exactly what we needed and quickly got the job done. The results were great and even the inspector acknowledged the impressive repair. They were able to put a knocked out garage wall back on the foundation and repair the interior dry wall.
I would recommend this company for any professional contract work due to their reasonable price, ease to work with and quality of work."
"We had our entire house, 3 car garage and smaller shed completely re-sided and painted through Handymack. The work was fast, cost effective, and beautiful. Everyone was extremely professional and worked with us with every request we had. Judy, Mack wife, was amazing to work with. She was so sweet and did not hesitate to call if they had questions about a paint color, light fixture or our experience. They also tore down our previous front porch and built a new one. It is absolutely beautiful and exactly what we wanted. I will 100% hire this company again for the re-modeling of the interior of our home. Thank you Handy Mack"
"Ben was 1 of 4 guys that i interviewed to rebuild my 20 year old deck. He took his time explaining what he could do for me. He gave me ideas and choices. He provided me with different options . Ben and his team removed my existing deck boards, railings, and stairs. They put on composite deck boards, railings , and staircases. My yard was kept clean. Ben was very communicative throughout the project. The 665 sq. Foot deck was completed in 5 days. I am recommending Dynamic Exteriors LLC To all my friends and neighbors!

"I had used Classic Construction for a roof replacement prior to this job and have been more than satisfied on both occasions. The work both times was completed in the time frame estimated and the results were outstanding. Frank is very meticulous in his work and I would highly recommend him and have done so quite a few times."
"I’ve worked with Luis a few times and his team is always extremely professional and courteous. The work was completed with very high quality standards and craftsmanship as we needed several bathroom sinks and flooring tiles recaulked. I highly recommend LAV contracting as they provide excellent service and quality standards every time."
"Eddie was FANTASTIC!!! He responded to my inquiry right away and met me just a few days later to review the work that needed to be completed. He was professional and efficient, and takes the time to do a great job. I am in the process of moving and my new apt needed some baseboards replaced, furniture assembled, and he helped complete the framing of a closet nook we created. He's a a real contractor and has a great eye for how to accomplish what you want to create/fix. I have used Eddie several times now and would highly recommend him for anything you need done in your home."

It allows you to feel closer to nature in a sustainable, customizable, minimalist, and eco-friendly way.
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.
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.
The lifespan of a barn is typically 40 to 60 years, but with skillful construction and proper maintenance, it can last up to 100 years. The actual lifespan depends on several factors, including the barn type, materials, usage, and climate. For example, the posts of a pole barn should last 50 years or longer, but if the structure is used for livestock in a rainy climate, it may rot within the first decade. Custom designs with high-end materials tend to last the longest. To get the best estimate for your barn's lifespan, you should consider its material type and intended use.
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.
