"I was in the process of converting a screened in porch to an all seasons sunroom. I needed someone who could install insulation under the floor as well as the attic. I tried local businesses first and could not get the response I wanted so I chose Angie's List after seeing a special.on insulation. I have never used Angie's List before so I wasn't sure what I was getting into. The results were awesome! Southern Strong Roofing, Wade James, came out and inspected the job and answered all my questions. Wade gave me an estimate that night. They did the job when they said they would and were fast and very knowledgeable. Their customer service was good too. They answered my calls or returned them promptly. I will not hesitate to use them again and will recommend them to friends and family. "
"Preston of G-1 Plumbing performed the services and addressed the toilet & drain problem. He was unable to stop leak(made it worse) & submitted his recs to Choice Home for review. I was unable to understand Choice Home's response regarding the faucet leak. Their review stated faucet needed to be replaced BUT it was under "builder's warranty." I built this home in 2005. There is no "builder's warranty" now. I cancelled the proposed work order & paid out-of-pocket. A Friend, who was familiar with my builder and knows faucet components, came to my home, adjusted/cleaned the faucet cartridge and stopped the leak. The CHW tech, Preston, is conscientiuos, however, IMHO lacked the knowledge & experience to stop my leak. Home Warranty Companies, at least in my area, hire owner/operators who need the work to build their business and are NOT the most experienced/knowledgeable & are willing to work for less money. In my experience, Home Warranty Companies want the CHEAPEST resolution, not the BEST. I would recommend G-1 Plumbing for most plumbing issues."
"All workers showed up on time and the work progressed on time. The weather was a factor but the job was finished in time and in a very professional manner. There was never a time when I had to worry if the job was being done the way it should be. There was a section of roofing on the back of the house that was done by an armature at best that caused a lot of wood rot. The foreman of the job showed me how it could be repaired and saved me over $1500 on the job.
I plan to use this provider in the future for work inside my home."
"I live out of town; and when I need trustworthy work done for my parent in AR, I’m completely satisfied with Spates friendly customer service & detailed work!"
"It went great, and we hired them to perform additional maintenance for our chimney as well as others in our building. Everyone was very pleased with the service, warranty, and price. "
"I am a new home owner and I noticed some water damage in the corner of my basement. Turns out the previous homeowner had the downspout dumping into the basement. Fixed the downspot and no new water damage. So I removed the drywall so that I ocyld replace it and found termites. Stripped down all the drywall in basement and had basement treated (see other review for termite treatment). I called and received estimates for repair work. Shannon was very prompt, friendly, and professional. He listened to what I wanted, and then described in detail how the repair would be made. I had absolute confidence that he knew what he was doing. Furthermore, when I check his proposed techniques out with online forums they were exactly what the pro recommended. The only problem was the price was more than I was willing to pay for repairing the basement at this time. I am going to slowly replace the insulation, re-do the wiring, and do the framing myself to save money. Not sure how long that will take."
"They take money on muy account for my home warranty service, and they are very responsive, and very reliable. They send Repair companies to my house for repairs and services."
"Sentri Homes did an outstanding job communicating with me through the whole renovation process. The result far exceeded my expectations. Very happy and satisfied customer."

Barndominium Builders questions, answered by experts
It is almost always more affordable to buy an existing home than to build a new one. Building a home involves numerous costs, including labor, permits, inspections, utility hookups, and brand-new materials, finishes, and appliances. Additionally, new construction loans can have higher interest rates than traditional mortgages, and property taxes on new homes are often higher, increasing long-term costs. An exception is a DIY house build, which can be cheaper than buying an existing home if you do the labor yourself. While building is generally more expensive, a new custom home offers complete control over the layout and design. Furthermore, new construction is typically worth more than a comparable pre-owned home and may provide a better return on investment if sold quickly.
Adding an extension or addition to your home costs more than a loft conversion in all but the rarest cases where the home's structural integrity is lacking. Because a home addition requires a new foundation section or significant structural upgrades to handle a cantilevered portion, the cost compared to almost any loft conversion is significantly greater for the same square footage.
Whether you buy a prefabricated shed or build one depends on why you need it and where you stay. For instance, if a simple garden shed is what you’re after, it’ll be less expensive to buy one already built. But if you want a shed with windows, plumbing, and electric work, a custom-built unit might be more suited to your needs.
The most significant expense when building a barndominium is constructing the metal shell, which includes the roof, doors, and windows. Additional exterior components impacting the overall cost include metal siding and the concrete foundation.
Technically, most states allow tiny homes, but it depends on the definition of tiny and whether the structure is permanent. Zoning laws regarding home size and construction are significant factors. For instance, a tiny home may be legal as a recreational vehicle in most areas, but you may only install it on a property if it complies with building and zoning codes.
