"Thomas Custom Builders: Meticulous, Punctual, and Truly Transformative! We wholeheartedly and enthusiastically recommend Thomas Custom Builders (TCB). We had a vision for transforming our 40-year-old home, and TCB didn't just execute it—they transformed it into an amazing, dream-like space that we never want to leave. We will scream their praises from the rooftops! The entire process, from start to finish, was meticulous. Our initial discussions with Troy were detailed and thoughtful. As the project progressed, principals Dave and Rick were incredibly thorough, setting our minds at ease with any concerns or reservations we may have had about the construction process. TCB’s commitment to professionalism and transparency was outstanding. We had online access to the daily schedule, and our primary contacts, Project Manager Brian Smith and Site Manager Dan, were absolute professionals. They were patient, understanding, and very accommodating to our questions and needs throughout the build. What impressed us most was their integrity and commitment to their word. They were "straight shooters," never overpromising and approaching their work with the utmost professionalism and care. They said the project would take three months, and it was completed on schedule in three months. The only thing late was our duty to write this glowing review. If you are looking for a builder committed to quality, punctuality, and transparency, look no further than Thomas Custom Builders. They are the definition of professionalism."

"Excellent experience. Starting with Calvin (our designer), Jason (PM) and Walter (Crew Lead) they did an outstanding job. Easy to work with and all details handled upfront. No surprises. If the Crew had any questions, they always deferred to me (and wife) and proceeded as we directed. Very respectful of my home, kept the site clean and always removed the construction debris in a timely manner. They provided such an outstanding service, they will be remodeling at least one other bathroom. Top notch."

"We have been using Mike & Home Remedies as our contractor/handyman for close to ten years. Time and again Mike has been the consummate professional and his works shows. The quality is tremendous and Mike (quite rightly) takes pride in his craft. We have had Mike do several large projects in our home and he just completed redoing our basement bathroom as we are having an elderly family member move in. We will continue to call on him for all and every future work. We cannot recommend him strongly enough."

"I hired RLD Builders to construct a retaining wall that needed replaced before we could repave the driveway. RLD Builders came in with a competitive price and won the job. What was to take a few weeks turned into a three month ordeal. The county permit process caused hurdle after hurdle to get the permits but Rafe kept on the county and we finally got the permits and the job was completed to our satisfaction. We then put the house on the market for sale and had moved to our new out-of-the-area location. The hot water tank in the basement decided to let loose causing major damage to the basement. This is where RLD Builders exceeded our expectations. Rafe and his crew jumped in and cleaned up the water damage, worked with the insurance agents to get approvals, and completely rebuilt our basement. Being that we were no longer in the area, it was a blessing to have RLD Builders on the job to take care of all the details. We couldn't have done it without them. GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE ! ! !"

"We had an excellent experience from the first meeting to discuss options, to the decision to purchase, to the build. The shed build was easily scheduled and completed within one day. The value for the cost is better than we could have hoped. Highly recommend them for shed building."

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.

Common pitfalls include underestimating the cost of site preparation, overlooking permit and utility fees, and not setting aside funds for unexpected changes. Change orders during construction can disrupt your budget. It’s best to plan a detailed budget, obtain multiple quotes, and include a 10% to 15% contingency fund for unexpected expenses.

Pole barns and carports are similar in that they rely on posts for support and are often not connected to a primary structure. The main difference between the two is that pole barns usually include walls that surround the entire perimeter of the structure, while carports generally remain open on three or four sides. It’s possible to insulate garage doors and even exterior walls on pole barns to create a comfortable workspace, and it’s a bit more secure for storage purposes. However, carports are more affordable.

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.

The term “cottage” is subjective, so there’s no rigid definition, but it generally refers to a small home with simple and purposeful architecture that embraces nature and focuses on charm over everything else. Cottages are typically 1 or 1 1/2-stories tall, usually with gabled roofs, and are built out of natural materials that help make the structure a part of the surrounding nature rather than something that stands out from it. A big part of what makes a cottage a cottage is the decor, which includes natural materials from the nearby area.
