"This whole experience went better than any other project we've had done. Caleb, the owner, spoke with me first and was willing to look at the bathroom the same day. I got a quote for just the shower and one for the entire bathroom. We decided to replace just the shower. I received weekly phone calls updating me on when they could start. They were able to start earlier than anticipated and they completed the work quickly and efficiently. I was trying to coordinate this from another state and they did a great job taking pictures and staying in touch. The shower looks amazing."

"June 5 paid him 11,432.10 to start the project. He did not start until around June 23. Starting the first week he ran into problems with his subcontractors because he decided to change their pay and that got them very upset. To the point they were fussing and cussing in my house over the phone at him. And talking amongst their self as subcontractors cussing and fussing about what he was doing Work got put on hole more than four or five times in this process. He would always tell me one thing and no one will show up for days and then when it seem like they were trying to get their act together, they wouldn’t show up for days or a week before getting more information on what’s going on. He would say he was coming to the house so many times and not show up. They knocked out walls and pulled out my cabinets by electrical sockets also in the kitchen area does not work so I’m using a extension cord to plug in my appliance to cook and to use whatever I need in the kitchen. The wall that he took out, he said it’s not a low bearing wall, but after he took it out, the ceiling started to crack. He had to get someone over here to seal up the ceiling. I’ve reached out to him through the months of July and August and have had conversations that he has apologized that the people that he hired are not coming through. The last time I talked to him was the last week of August and he has not picked up my phone call or text message since. I went to the cabinet company and recorded my conversation with them and he has not talked to him since July 11, but I have text messages that he keeps telling me that they keep pushing the order back. My conversation with the company they said he has not paid them. They have not talked to them since July 11 so he lied and stole my money. On July 29, I paid him 10,288.89. Per his contract I paid him 50% upfront and then another 45% after 45 days and then I have about $1300 left to pay once he was supposed to complete the project.He has left my house in shambles. There are exposed wires with caps and nails as well. There are holes in the floor in the kitchen, dust and clumps of sheet rock all over the floor. He told me he was supposed to have a cleaning company come and take care of my couches in the house with the dust is all over and they never came other than cleaning a bathroom and left And I haven’t heard from him since that day. So I am also getting a lawyer because he has not finished the job and has not paid the company so that mean he’s stolen the money. 29th of September would be one month since I’ve heard from him. They also broke my lamp and damaged my living room couch areas, which I have to pay to get professionally cleaned."

Barndominium Builders questions, answered by experts

Whether it’s more affordable to gut a house than build a new one depends on the markets where you'd be buying and selling. However, it’s usually less expensive to renovate a home than to build new construction. 

Most homeowners pay between $100,000 and $200,000 for demolition and remodeling costs, whereas the average cost to build a new home is between $139,000 and $531,300.

Yes, you can finance new construction using a construction loan or a construction-to-permanent loan, or you can use a home equity line of credit or a cash-out refinance if you’re building a second home. Some mortgagors may have restrictions on DIY house builds, so be sure to check that you can get financing before starting your project.

Yes, home builders need to be licensed in every state and municipality in the country. The specific license required varies based on the location and the work, but most states require that the builder hold a general contractor’s license at minimum. Some states and cities also require that plumbing, electrical, roofing, and sewage system construction require individual licenses, in which case the builder may subcontract the work. You can use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to confirm that the builder you’re considering holds all the proper licenses.

In most states, you can build an in-law suite on your property as long as you follow local building codes. However, it's important that you have enough space on your property to accommodate the new structure. A functional in-law suite in your backyard will require between 300 and 800 square feet of space.

Modular homes are more affordable than stick-built homes if you keep quality and square footage equal. The cost to build a home averages $323,000, while average modular home prices sit at {AvgCost}. If you’re looking for custom or luxury options, a traditional custom home costs $825,000, while a high-end modular home costs $600,000, on average.
