"Built a metal carport, and then I needed it extended. On extending it , could not put post in certain areas. They came up with a creative and pretty way to do this."

"Louis Huggins recently completed numerous tasks at our home. He: replaced mailbox post and installed house numbers; cleaned and painted lamppost; patched broken concrete; repaired and painted yard house door and wall; replaced every HVAC vent; replaced translucent plastic panels below fluorescent kitchen lights; repaired and painted bedroom, bathroom and family-room walls and "popcorn" ceilings; painted walls and shelves in pantry; replaced pull-down attic stairs; touched up stain on kitchen cabinets; painted edges of front porch to match bricks; power-washed siding and foundation on back of house; replaced weather stripping around utility room door; cleaned and repainted porch-light fixture; made and installed new trim molding in kitchen; disposed of old and excess paint. Based on the variety and quality of Louis’ work, I believe he deserves these adjectives: affable, accommodating, meticulous, innovative, resourceful, dependable, versatile, experienced, knowledgeable, and several other complimentary terms. The prices for his labor and materials seem reasonable. He has my highest recommendation."

"I am so grateful for Terry and T5T Contracting. From the moment I met Terry, I knew he was the real deal—down-to-earth, honest, and extremely knowledgeable. His family has been in the business for years, and it’s clear he understands what homeowners need during a renovation. Terry is prompt and timely in his communications, and he showed incredible patience and kindness throughout the process. Living in a home during a renovation is not for the faint of heart, and inevitably, challenges come up. What stood out to me is how Terry always addressed concerns quickly and thoroughly, correcting any issues with professionalism and care. The subcontractors that T5T works with are also excellent. Every single person who came into my home arrived on time, was fully prepared, respectful of my home, and delivered truly outstanding work. That level of consistency gave me so much peace of mind during what could have been a stressful process."

I have been doing construction projects for 25 years, from constructing homes, apartments, sheds and barns from the ground up, to room remodels. I also trap wildlife and do home seal ups to keep the critters out, which I have been doing for 12 years. This includes anything as small as rats and bats to coyotes and hogs. Snakes are also no problem. You can depend on us to provide a high quality service at a fair and honest price. We understand that the future of our business depends upon our reputation and that is why customer service is by far our highest priority. If you are looking for a professional you can trust, please call today to schedule a no-obligation estimate!

"Spent a lot of time examining problems with chimney/siding repair in addition to fence project. Then never got estimate emailed to us in a timely manner despite two phone calls requesting it. Finally got a call after a week and then got estimate, which did not include fence project as we were suddenly informed they will no longer be doing fences."

"Once I requested a bid on HomeAdvisor, Toby called me almost immediately. He gave me an estimate on when he could come by the house (which was later that same day), then called back to confirm as the appointment approached. He arrived on time, identified the source of the problem (which was a water leak behind the siding), and fixed it using some nifty plumbing skills. :-) Good work. Great communication. Good customer service. Good price. A great experience. Will use again."

"We had a friend recommend LFM Remodeling to us and weâ re so happy we worked with them on our primary bath remodel! David & Skender always communicated updates with us and asked questions when needed to achieve our desired results. We couldnâ t be happier with our new bathroom! The floorplan is much more functional and weâ re so happy with the installation of all of our selections! We canâ t wait to work with the LFM team again on other projects in our home! Highly recommend!"

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.

This answer varies based on where you are, but most states require that all homes are greater than 320 square feet. Remember that four walls are not the only requirements—windows, closet space, minimal ceiling heights, and indoor air quality are also factors. Each state and municipality differs, though, and as some don’t consider tiny homes permanent shelters, you’ll need to check to ensure you aren’t violating any local or state laws with your build.

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.

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.

Skid foundations, deck block foundations, and concrete block foundations are the most affordable shed foundation options. Of these, we recommend deck blocks. Deck blocks are easy to install and level, and they raise your shed up off the ground to prevent rotting from exposure to water and moisture. Keep in mind that deck blocks won’t resist soil movement or frost heave, so they’re not ideal in areas with expansive soil or a deep frost line.
