Q: What is the difference between a pole barn and a stick-built barn?

• <div><p>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. </p></div>

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.</p><p>Keep in mind that even a flat roof needs to have a slight slope, usually around 1/2 inch for every foot.

"We cannot say enough about VanDusen exteriors. We absolutely love the way our house looks! The quality of their workmanship is top notch not to mention their entire team is so friendly, respectful and courteous. We have small children who enjoyed watching them work and they were always so kind and friendly with the kids. They were here bright and early and worked hard each and every day. And always made sure to clean up after themselves every night. The entire team was a pleasure to deal with and we highly recommend them! Thank you again VanDusen! We are so happy with our home!"
