"TEK Construction was the perfect solution to our problem. Painting 80% of the interior of my 100 plus year-old house. Kyle did a professional job prepping, repairing and painting several different surfaces. He made old surfaces look new. He was meticulous and professional, covering furniture and floors as necessary to not leave any signs of the painting on carpets, floors, furniture or cabinets. On the job when he said he would be and left the areas orderly and clean at the end of each day. I will be using them for future projects and would recommend them to others in the future."

"Rich and his team have done several restorations. First and foremost he put in a new bathroom upstairs, from the plumbing to all the fixtures, insulation wiring everything that is required and a job well done! They also re-wired the house for a 200amp service from pole to house then took on running new wire from house to barn then to shed. All passed with flying colors. He also took on blowing insulation into the attics, what a difference the first summer and winter that year! Rich and his team helps with good guidance on this old farmhouse. They always came through, looking forward to their help in the future."

"We did use them.  They are excellent.  I would use them again if I needed them and they are local.  They were very thorough, very professional, and cleaned up after themselves.  There was no debris left.  This is the kind of person you would want if you want some work done.  They came in the house, it didn't take them long, and they knew what they were doing.  We didn't have any problems.  They were very polite.  They were very reasonable on price.  They were very good."

"These guys were great!! We had a delivery of a massive new front, all in one piece, very heavy. They handled it of total care and stored it in our garage with all the very long trim pieces for installation next day. Kind of an unusual item to deliver so was concerned about the glass, scratching, damage. Again, 5-star handling and very pleased!!"

Barndominium Builders questions, answered by experts

Rather than using a common two-by-four piece of wood for a rafter, you probably will use two-by-six, two-by-eight, two-by-ten, or even two-by-twelve boards. Wider lumber is typically a better choice in a larger building as it provides more sturdiness. Some installers may use wider lumber for rafters near the edges of the roof, where the greatest stress occurs, and save money with narrower lumber toward the middle.

It’s much less expensive to build a house with wood. This is because wood is relatively inexpensive, strong enough to endure decades or even centuries of weathering and pressure, and is easier to replace if there are issues. The cost of stone houses are incredibly expensive, heavy, time-consuming to build, and difficult to repair. 

It is recommended that you check with your local building official on barn building requirements and rules, since size restrictions vary greatly from region to region based on what your property is zoned for. Some cities limit barn construction depending on if your property is residential or commercial. The three main factors your building commission will evaluate are:

  • Height and lot coverage: How tall your barn is and how much of your total property it occupies

  • Setback: Distance between barn and property line

  • Easement: Legal right for another owner to access another’s property

Whether it is better to buy or build a chicken coop depends on your priorities, primarily cost versus time and effort. Building your own chicken coop can be significantly more budget-friendly, often costing about half as much as buying a pre-made one. If you have the time and skills, building a coop from scratch is the most economical option. However, if your time or skills are limited, buying a kit and hiring a handyperson to assemble it can be more cost-effective than hiring a carpenter to build a custom coop from scratch. If you want a perfectly constructed coop without sacrificing your own time and energy, buying one is the easiest choice.

A 5x8 trailer can fit a queen-sized bed plus additional items. It is one of the most common sizes for enclosed cargo trailers, open utility trailers, and dump trailers. U-Haul, a national trailer rental company serving most U.S. markets, claims its 5x8 enclosed trailer can tow up to 1,800 pounds.
