"Working with Maison was better than we could have imagined. My husband and I usually do most home projects on our own since we have heard horror stories about working with contractors. But our project involved creating an opening and stairs into the garage from the main house to the unfinished space above our garage. This was not something we could do ourselves not with juggling work and kids. Originally, the space above the garage could only be accessed by deck stairs outside. This was not ideal for us. We have three boys and did not want them to have to go outside to get to this room. We wanted to create a recreation room for this space, a place for our family to hang out. We had multiple area contractors come to give us a quote. Most of them did not want to tackle doing the stairs. They offered to finish the room but not do the stairs. Either we would not hear back from them, or they gave us quotes that were enough to build a brand-new house. We had given up hope on finding a contractor, so we decided just to contract somebody to do the stairs, and we would do the rest ourselves. Initially, we were asking Ken for a quote just for the stairs. But he wanted to do the whole job. Our first impression of Ken was that he was a good guy, so we took a leap of faith because we had become very skeptical of all contractors at that point. Maison pleasantly surprised us. Their work was ahead of schedule and meticulous. Ken and his crew were professional and a pleasure to work with. They exceeded our expectations. They were mindful to our work and family schedule. We would not hesitate to use them again. We recommend them for any home project you may have."

"The Thermal Home Exterior's friendly and professional crew arrived as scheduled and the roofing job was completed like a well oiled machine. The entire job was completed within 7 hours. The service provided was fast and very efficient. The roof looks great and carries the GAF liftetime warranty. I would certainly recommend this company."

"I hired Repair Pros for major roof work on a large 2-story Victorian home with an old tin roof. They did such an excellent job with the roof and repairs to the built-in gutters, i hired them a second time to repair all the soffits. I was extremely pleased with the professional work from the owner of the company and his crew. They'll definitely be my first choice when i need any further projects done!"

"Jim Glave took on my project when other construction companies refused. It was complicated, in an older home; it required structural modifications to rafters and creative thinking. They converted an attic space into a big beautiful closet that far exceeded my expectations. Jim and his son Brandon were there every step of the way, their communication with me was outstanding. Their work is quality and easily passed all inspections. They maintained a clean working environment, keeping the construction dust to a minimum, which I appreciated so much! I would highly recommend them and I hope to hire them again!"

"We had multiple items that needed to be addressed. Rear deck refinishing, replacing rotted/damaged wood siding and trim, replacing a screen door, fixing/repainting a bathroom ceiling and replacing a couple of rotted window sills. The quality of work was excellent and we were also on a tight timeline, which they met in time for us to host a neighborhood party. I highly recommend this company and you should be comfortable hiring them for any needs for your home."

"We originally hired a different company who caused damage to my house and none of their work passed inspection. Virginia Home Renovations not only fixed the extensive damage caused by the first company but did an amazing job finishing the renovations we wanted in the first place! I'm soooooo happy with my home now!"

Barndominium Builders FAQs, answered by experts

The best lumber for building will be the strongest and most eco-friendly wood your budget allows. That being said, Douglas fir, pine, oak, and maple are all common building materials. Contractors will use a strong, inexpensive wood to frame a house or other structure and finer woods like mahogany for detail work. 

Prefab sheds can be worth it, depending on your needs and goals. If you want to build the shed yourself or have a quick project turnaround, then a prefab shed will likely be worth it. If you want something more customized, then starting from scratch may help you achieve your goals better than a prefab could.

If you can’t repair and repurpose your shed, it might be possible to sell it, donate it, or salvage parts rather than them just ending up in a landfill. Professional junk removal services will advise you on what can and will be recycled. You may also want to keep some parts to upcycle them for other projects around your home. Turning planks from your memory-filled wooden shed into a coffee table or bed headboard is good for the environment and the soul.

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.

Technically, most states allow tiny homes, but it depends on the definition of tiny and whether the structure is permanent. Zoning laws regarding home size and construction are significant factors. For instance, a tiny home may be legal as a recreational vehicle in most areas, but you may only install it on a property if it complies with building and zoning codes.
