"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."

"From our first contact with this company, we were very impressed by their attitude, professionalism, doing what they said they would do. Price charged within local standards and used quality products. They kept in contact with us, keeping us up to date on plans for job. The job had to be postponed for 2 weeks due to constant rain but they let us know in plenty of time to make sure it was ok with us. The office contact, Megan, is very friendly and efficient. The crew that came was super excellent. They went right to work, no wasted time. Kept work area neat, cleaned up after first day. On second day, finished the job and left our home and yard looking better than it did before they came. Our next door neighbor commented that he had never seen such a professional job and group of people. We have mobility issues so they carried the extra shingles to our basement and put them exactly where we wanted them and even picked up some heavy bags of salt for our water conditioner from the local Home Depot and put them in our basement. Cannot say enough good things about them. Our roof looks great, they provided a great warranty and quality product. We have already scheduled them to come back for an estimate to replace our outside steps (which they hauled away at our request at no extra charge) Would highly recommend them. They even gave us a gift of homemade baked goods as a thank you for using their services Bob and Carol Merritt"

"JLC contracting went above and beyond to do my home addition for me. I couldn’t be more pleased with the way everything turned out. I found him here on Angie’s list. Wonderful work ethic, reliable, affordable, and these guys are so good at what they do. JLC contracting had the lowest quote out of everyone that I called and I am so pleased with the way my home addition turned out. These guys are truly the best!!"

Barndominium Builders FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, barndominiums are energy-efficient as long as insulation professionals properly install quality insulation, windows, and doors. Utility bills for barndo living can be up to 50% lower than those for a traditional home.  Make your barndo more energy efficient by working with contractors and HVAC professionals to strategically place windows, doors, and heating/cooling systems. 

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.

Adding an extension or addition to your home costs more than a loft conversion in all but the rarest cases where the home's structural integrity is lacking. Because a home addition requires a new foundation section or significant structural upgrades to handle a cantilevered portion, the cost compared to almost any loft conversion is significantly greater for the same square footage.

You may need a local building permit and written permission from your homeowner’s association to install a shed, especially if you’re doing any substantial land clearing or installing electricity or plumbing. Permit requirements vary between municipalities, so research the local laws before starting your project. If you hire a contractor to build the shed, they can help determine which permits will be necessary.

Whether you should choose a flat roof or a sloped roof depends on your particular situation. Flat roofs tend to be less expensive to install. However, sloped roofs have longer lifespans and stand up better to heavy snow and other inclement weather.

Keep in mind that even a flat roof needs to have a slight slope, usually around 1/2 inch for every foot. If it is completely flat, water will pool and cause damage, either from weight or leakage or rot.
