"The team that came to assemble our home gym was outstanding! They were prompt, kind, and did the job in just two hours! And they even took all of the empty cardboard boxes, which we were so very appreciative of! This company was extraordinary and we will definitely be using them again should the need arise!"

"Chris was excellent! I highly recommend. We had a problem with our front door, literally for years. It continued to get worse and worse until it became a real problem. Chris and I diagnosed the problem, and Chris fixed it beautifully. It is such a pleasure to have our door work as it did when it was installed. He was prompt and went above and beyond. I will definbitely utilize Chris in the future"

"Mr. White did an excellent job and provided superior service beyond any of the other 2 plumbers called for this incident. The first local one didn't do anything except say they couldn't do it. "we don't have a jet.". Mr. White, however, did clear the line considerably, and before he left, we knew exactly where the issue was and if it might be an issue again, what to do! He's a excellent person foremost and an awesome plumber too! I would hire him any time I have any type of issue, even beyond his proven work here for plumbing. He is very communicative, down-to-Earth, and knowledeable. He is an exceptional craftsman and I am glad to have met him despite the circumstances! Please have him give you a quote! You won't be sorry! Thanks again, Mr. White! Happy Holidays! -SFC Mike Gordon"

"Guys were very likable. They respected our home and left the space ad they had found it. Will have to wait for the weather to see if the chimney flashing seal is finally sealed correctly. As it had been done by someone else prior to this."

"I was very impressed with Sentri Homes - their customer service was excellent. They sent a subcontractor to install some vinyl laminate in my bathroom and he ended up getting glue all over the carpet in our bedroom. The sub ended up ghosting both me and Sentri, leaving me stuck with a ruined carpet. Sentri stuck with me for over a month to get the carpet replaced with the identical original and to get the vinyl job 100% completed. The carpet was a Home Depot exclusive and Sentri handled everything with them. I will be using Sentri for a much bigger renovation I have coming up soon, because I know that they will make sure everything gets done right no matter what problems come up. The vinyl looks great too."

"Ryan has been an amazing person to work with! His knowledge and flexibility are the best I have dealt with in a long time. My wife is skeptical, when it comes to builders and contractors but after meeting him she was a believer and knew just how valuable he would be to us and our new home. Thanks for everything Ryan!"

Barndominium Builders questions, answered by experts

Building a barndominium means converting a barn into a house. Barndominiums are becoming popular as spacious and stylish alternatives to typical housing structures. Old barns that become houses traditionally consist of wooden construction. However, newer structures, such as pole barns, often contain metal exteriors and roofs. Converting a metal outbuilding into a house presents an excellent opportunity to create a barndominium from metal.

If you can’t repair and repurpose your shed, it might be possible to sell it, donate it, or salvage parts rather than them just ending up in a landfill. Professional junk removal services will advise you on what can and will be recycled. You may also want to keep some parts to upcycle them for other projects around your home. Turning planks from your memory-filled wooden shed into a coffee table or bed headboard is good for the environment and the soul.

The time it takes to build a shed heavily depends on the type of shed you buy. A prefab shed can be built in 4 to 8 hours, while a custom shed will be built off-site over the span of 2 to 5 days. It then takes a few hours, depending on the location, to move the finished shed to its final location.

Average barndominiums last between 50 and 150 years depending on the materials they are made from, how well they are maintained, and the environment they are built in. Barndominiums are very durable and have a much longer lifespan than traditional wood homes. With proper care and maintenance, well-built barndominium homes can last generations. 

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.
