"Best fastest person have ever had and don’t plan on losing her ever . I’ve tried to find someone for 4 years as I’m very limited in what I can do and have lung disease now which means no dust and all hardwood floors & tile . She would be at top of your list if all facts known . Memory extraordinary And organizing skills excellent. I recommend her to the best of customers you need to keep or add on list . She is deserving ! I have family in real estate business , builders etc . I had family that owned a cleaning business so I know the business . Thank you for her . She works hard for my beautiful kept living environment . I can be proud of my home again. Thank you !"

Great job!  Wade was very professional - he showed up when promised, provided a quote on the spot, and performed the work when promised. 

I was particularly impressed that Wade went beyond what he was required to do.  He said he would put weather stripping around our attic door and put a latch on the door.  He did not have to do these - they were not part of the insulation job.  He returned when he said he would to do these items.  You don't see things like this too often.  Nice job, Wade! 

Highly recommend Southern Strong, and, in particular, Wade!

"Matt with MS was great. They contacted me the same day as requested. He performed the work 2 days later. His quote was very reasonable and he completed the work in one afternoon. The quality of the work was outstanding and he cleaned up all the debris and left the work area cleaner than it was before. I will definitely call MS again if I have any other projects."

Barndominium Builders questions, answered by experts

You can use a variety of wood to build a barn door, but the most common options include 1-by boards and 2-by boards for the backing and the decorative boards on the front of the door. Softwoods like pine will save you some money and should hold up well, while hardwoods like maple and oak will stand up to more wear and tear. You could also build the backer out of plywood to minimize the cuts you need to make. Whatever you decide on, make sure the width of the wood is compatible with the mounting brackets you buy.

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.

Yes, barndominiums are designed to withstand strong weather and severe storms if they are built properly by trained professionals. Most barndominiums are made up of a steel structure that can protect a building from winds of up to 150 miles per hour and resist a variety of weather conditions without a major risk of structural damage to the exterior, foundation, or frame.

A 5x8 trailer can fit a queen-sized bed plus additional items. It is one of the most common sizes for enclosed cargo trailers, open utility trailers, and dump trailers. U-Haul, a national trailer rental company serving most U.S. markets, claims its 5x8 enclosed trailer can tow up to 1,800 pounds.

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.
