"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!

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.

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.

Rather than using a common two-by-four piece of wood for a rafter, you probably will use two-by-six, two-by-eight, two-by-ten, or even two-by-twelve boards. Wider lumber is typically a better choice in a larger building as it provides more sturdiness. Some installers may use wider lumber for rafters near the edges of the roof, where the greatest stress occurs, and save money with narrower lumber toward the middle.

There's no simple answer to which is less costly: wood or metal-framed homes. In most cases, metal building components cost more than wooden ones, while entire metal buildings cost less than wooden versions. However, regardless of the exterior framing or structure, each must meet similar building codes. This means that the costs are about the same, even considering that wood will require more maintenance than metal over time.

The timeline to build your barn will depend on the barn type and the company you hire. A pole barn may take six weeks or so, while a traditionally framed or steel-framed barn can take four months or longer. Building a barndominium takes the longest because you are essentially building a new home. You can expect barndominiums to take six months or longer to build.
