"Two guys came and took care of a small project in 30 minutes to an hour. He also said, "What else can I do for you?" I asked him a couple of questions and he said, "Oh, we can do that." So he did some other things that were small, but needed to be done with. He did those and then he said, "Well what else can we do for you?" That was all I could think of. There were two guys. I thought it would be one guy for two hours, but it was two guys that were there a little over an hour. I got done what needed to be done, so I was very pleased. He said, "If you need anything call us back." I didn't have to pay anything more. I had a shelf that was falling in the garage. They did the brace that had broken. So they had to take a lot of heavy boxes off and they replaced that brace and then they also did some other braces to support it. That was actually what I called them out for and they took care of that. The ladder to the garage came down on top of a board that my husband had put there to raise the car up so that it would clear this kerb he had put in. He put in a kerb so that you would know where to stop the car. Then the car couldn't clear the kerb, so he put a board in to raise the car up to clear the kerb. That meant the ladder that came down out of the attic hit that board. My grandson had questioned the strength of the ladder. I had them take out the ladder. It's only good for 200 lbs. That is why a heavy guy might have an issue with it. It wouldn't fit right because of that board. The guy sad, "Well your ladder is fine," and they cut a little square out of the board so that the ladder could go all the way down."

"We had a great experience with SR Insulation. Omar and his crew did a good job at a competitive price. Good communication throughout the whole process, they were punctual for the estimate visit as well as the actual installation date. Definitely would recommend!"

"Monty arrived on time like he said he would. Started working right away. He was done by lunch time. I must say the job turned out better than I thought it would. Unless you know what to look for , you can't even tell where the garage was hit on a 40 year old home. My hate off to Monty!!!!!"

Pole Barn Builders questions, answered by experts

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 foundation for a pole barn should be at least 36 inches thick to ensure that the piers won’t shift from frost heave.

If you’re building a pole barn in place of a traditional home, lenders usually don’t offer traditional mortgages for these structures. You can also expect higher insulation costs and building permits may not be allowed in your area. Even if you’re just using a pole barn as storage or as a shelter for animals, these structures are less durable than steel buildings and require more maintenance.

You may need a local building permit and written permission from your homeowner’s association to install a shed, especially if you’re doing any substantial land clearing or installing electricity or plumbing. Permit requirements vary between municipalities, so research the local laws before starting your project. If you hire a contractor to build the shed, they can help determine which permits will be necessary.

The difference between a pole barn and a stick-built barn is in the construction. Large poles in the ground provide support for pole barns. For stick-built barns, 2-by-4 or 2-by-6 lumber (known as sticks) create a frame around load-bearing beams. Stick-built construction is far more popular for residential homes. Pole barns are more cost-effective because they require fewer materials and less labor.
