"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!

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."

The most significant expense when building a barndominium is constructing the metal shell, which includes the roof, doors, and windows. Additional exterior components impacting the overall cost include metal siding and the concrete foundation.
While prices fluctuate because of increased demand, fewer supplies, and engineering time, OSB generally remains more affordable than plywood at $1 to $2.40 per square foot compared to the $4.50 to $10 for plywood. Cost is only one factor you should consider when deciding between OSB and plywood.
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.
The difference between a pole barn and a stick-built barn is in the construction. Large poles in the ground provide support for pole barns. For stick-built barns, 2-by-4 or 2-by-6 lumber (known as sticks) create a frame around load-bearing beams. Stick-built construction is far more popular for residential homes. Pole barns are more cost-effective because they require fewer materials and less labor.
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.
