"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. "

"The only completed the job a few hours ago. Cutting back my metal roof for gutters to fit. It’s too early to tell if there’s going to be any problems or issues. Right now everything looks good."
"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 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."
Barndominium Builders questions, answered by experts
The lifespan of a barn is typically 40 to 60 years, but with skillful construction and proper maintenance, it can last up to 100 years. The actual lifespan depends on several factors, including the barn type, materials, usage, and climate. For example, the posts of a pole barn should last 50 years or longer, but if the structure is used for livestock in a rainy climate, it may rot within the first decade. Custom designs with high-end materials tend to last the longest. To get the best estimate for your barn's lifespan, you should consider its material type and intended use.
Yes, barndominiums are energy-efficient as long as insulation professionals properly install quality insulation, windows, and doors. Utility bills for barndo living can be up to 50% lower than those for a traditional home. Make your barndo more energy efficient by working with contractors and HVAC professionals to strategically place windows, doors, and heating/cooling systems.
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.
Ranch and colonial-style homes are often the most affordable to build. They have a common layout with available designs that are easy to adjust in simple ways without having to spend too much on a structural engineer or architect. Both types of homes' symmetry, simple roofs, and often one or two-story plans mean they often fall in the $150 to $200 square-foot range, putting them right around average.
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.
