"We had PAR restore a house that flooded due to the freeze. It was EXTENSIVE. All rooms were affected. They had to replace all flooring, bathrroms and the kitchen. They had to repair and resheetrock and paint all walls. They were exceptional in their service and attention to detail. So, we hired them, again! This time they remodeled the primary bathroom in our home--new shower, cabinetry, countertops, new door openings, new tile, new paint. It's beautiful, now! You can count on Adam Grub, owner of PAR, and Roger Corbello for honesty, integrity and excellent work."

"We used him to build a custom closet and remodel a bathroom. His crew cleaned up their mess every single day and Eric made sure every detail was executed and done well. He even had his crew redo a couple of minor things that I didn’t think it needed to be redone, but he wanted everything done just right. I would definitely use him again."

"Blake did an excellent and thorough job. We had a leak that he diagnosed and fixed which ended up being a roof issue. He repaired some exterior window framing and also installed new tile floors. He is very detail oriented and his work is impeccable. I have already referred him to neighbors and will definitely use him again."

"Unique Builders and Development Inc is renowned for its exceptional and efficient services. We contacted Unique Builders with our plan to convert our attic into functional space. Ronen visited our house to assess the possibilities and offer suggestions on how to utilize the area effectively. The team was highly cooperative and flexible, readily adapting to any changes we made during the project. They made sure the construction process had minimal disruption to the rest of the house. We are extremely pleased with the final outcome of our project and now have a valuable living area where we used to have an unfinished attic."

Barndominium Builders questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

While sheds are most certainly helpful for most homeowners, unfortunately, sheds do not add value to a home or property in the traditional sense. However, if the home has limited storage or garage space, having a shed to store things like decorations or lawn equipment can certainly be a positive if you want to sell.

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.

It is recommended that you check with your local building official on barn building requirements and rules, since size restrictions vary greatly from region to region based on what your property is zoned for. Some cities limit barn construction depending on if your property is residential or commercial. The three main factors your building commission will evaluate are:

  • Height and lot coverage: How tall your barn is and how much of your total property it occupies

  • Setback: Distance between barn and property line

  • Easement: Legal right for another owner to access another’s property
