"My husband and I are expecting a baby, work full time and also just made a move into a new home. You could say things have been pretty hectic around here with little time for home improvements. Mike and Geno showed up to our new place on time after a phone consultation and were very professional to work with. They made sure to be in and out quickly and did the job thoroughly for a fair and honest price. I know that some of the reviews for them say otherwise but I would urge you to give them a try, since these two worked out very well for us. We have no complaints and are very satisfied with their clean work and reliable actions. We will definitely be calling Mike and Geno for more of our home projects in the future. Ms. Garfton"
"Dan and his team were punctual, hard-working and committed to making me a happy customer. They were extremely polite and communicative. Our house looks great.
"Working with Noelle and team was a true pleasure! My wife and I purchased our starter home a couple years ago, and wanted to make an upgrade to the old kitchen. We optimized the space with Noelle's stellar design, and have made the space not only more livable - but enjoyable as well. Kitchen's are the heart of a home, and we are so glad to truly "make it ours" by having gone through a remodel with BKG. We highly recommend their service! They are professional, affordable and great quality!"
"We were extremely pleased with the quality of the work performed. We had such a positive experience with O’Dell Contracting Inc. on a recent major home repair job that we immediately contracted with them to replace the roof on our 27 year old house. I recommend O’Dell Contracting Inc. without reservation! It has been my experience that Dean O’Dell takes an active interest in making sure that home remodeling work is done in a quality manner."
Barndominium Builders questions, answered by experts
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.
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.
Tiny houses, often called tiny homes, need between 100 to 400 square feet, with the most common size being between 200 and 300 square feet. Tiny houses more than 400 square feet venture into apartment-size dwellings and may be considered more of a traditional house than a tiny home. The number of occupants, desired lifestyle, and furniture will all be major factors that determine the desired tiny house size.
Concrete blocks are the cheapest way to base a shed. However, the space in between allows critters to go under, burrow, and even damage your shed’s frame. For a more pest-proof option, consider building a shed base with gravel or paver stones. Both options are fairly affordable and easy enough for a DIY project. For gravel, you can build a wooden frame to contain the loose material.
Generally speaking, building a swing set is cheaper than buying a prefabricated one, but this assumes you have all the tools and knowledge to complete the project. The average cost to build a swing set is $514, but you should also factor in the time and effort it will require—if you don’t want to give up your weekend, it’s worth considering buying instead of building.
