"When we began the process of our bathroom renovation, we were very impressed with Sam right off the bat. He is a very genuine, knowledgeable, professional and honest person. Once we met him and discussed what we wanted to do, we knew we wanted Sam to handle our renovation. Sam showed up when he said he would and worked every day straight through until the project was finished. He didn't start and then disappear for days or weeks and then show up again. When we met with the inevitable "unexpected issues" that come up with any renovation, Sam always had at least a couple of ideas/options for us to consider relative to dealing with those issues. Sam always cleaned up any debris, etc., and left everything very neat and clean. We are beyond pleased with the results and would certainly use Sam again. We would not hesitate to recommend Sam to anyone needing any sort of home improvements or repairs. Thanks, Sam, you're awesome!"

Barndominium Builders questions, answered by experts

The term “cottage” is subjective, so there’s no rigid definition, but it generally refers to a small home with simple and purposeful architecture that embraces nature and focuses on charm over everything else. Cottages are typically 1 or 1 1/2-stories tall, usually with gabled roofs, and are built out of natural materials that help make the structure a part of the surrounding nature rather than something that stands out from it. A big part of what makes a cottage a cottage is the decor, which includes natural materials from the nearby area.

The best lumber for building will be the strongest and most eco-friendly wood your budget allows. That being said, Douglas fir, pine, oak, and maple are all common building materials. Contractors will use a strong, inexpensive wood to frame a house or other structure and finer woods like mahogany for detail work. 

Whether a prefab home is worth it or not will depend on your personal needs and preferences. Overall, prefab homes tend to cost less than traditional homes, although they also tend to have lower resale values. Another thing to consider is that prefab homes usually last 50 to 60 years or longer, while traditional homes last 50 to 100 years or more.

Complex plumbing is tricky and expensive in an off-the-ground dwelling like this. By considering options like composting toilets, rainwater collection, and gray-water sinks, you save money and help the environment. 

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.
