"Once again, Tony Ratliff has helped our building look neat and proper with his wallpaper repair. He’s able to track down different styles of existing wallpaper, and when he can’t, he has some methods to keep our walls looking great without busting the bank. Thanks, again, Tony. I’ll definitely use your services in the future."

"Quality Work By Ron completed a full gut and remodel of my lake house, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Their craftsmanship, professionalism, and attention to detail were outstanding from start to finish. Anytime I had a question, they were patient and explained everything clearly. The project managers stayed in constant communication and checked in often to ensure everything was perfect and on schedule. The crews were extremely knowledgeable, worked together seamlessly, and handled every challenge without hesitation. They were also friendly, easy to talk to, and genuinely interested in me as a person, which made the entire process enjoyable. The final result exceeded all my expectations. I highly recommend Quality Work By Ron to anyone wanting quality work and an amazing experience!"

"My rental property was left in terrible condition. Freelance United took full control of the situation and brought my rental home back to life. Sam from Freelancd United was very thorough from beginning to end which made the process easy. Pricing was good; I knew I made the right decision when they worked around my price range. The house has now gone up in value thanks to Sam and the Freelance United team. I will definitely be using them for all of my rental properties and home. The entire home was painted, cabinets painted, & installed new kitchen counter tops."

Pole Barn Builders questions, answered by experts

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.

Generally speaking, building a swing set is cheaper than buying a prefabricated one, but this assumes you have all the tools and knowledge to complete the project. The average cost to build a swing set is $514, but you should also factor in the time and effort it will require—if you don’t want to give up your weekend, it’s worth considering buying instead of building.

The most common slope, or roof pitch, for a shed is 4:12 or four inches of height for every horizontal foot. For areas that experience heavy snow loads, a steeper roof of 6:12 or 9:12 is best. 

The pro you need to hire to build your shed depends on the shed you purchase. A local handyman or general contractor can help build a prefab shed for you. However, if you’re looking for a custom shed, contacting a shed builder near you is the best option. Make sure you get quotes from 3 pros to decide on the best pro for your job. 

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.
