"Our roof was supposed to last 30 years but, because of hurracanes and all our trees eventually coming down it was damaged and the company we'd used did an inadequate job repairing it. We also got more damage later from more storms and BMF showed up right on time. Isaac and his crew fixed that and after 3 other estimates we decided to replace the whole roof though it was only 20 years old. Again, BMF came to our rescue with a reasonable estimate and shortly thereafter reroofed our house and garage, using new shingles able to withstand high winds, also straightening up a problem with leakage around part of our gutter system that had become apparent in the last few years during heavy downpours. They knocked the job out in two days, cleaned up all the debris and couldn't have been more professional. I believe this time we finally found a contractor who did it right and we won't be fooling around with random leaks or tiles blowing off when the hurracanes, hailstorms or falling branches come again as they surely will. Thanks to Issac, Monty and the rest of the BMF crew, we finally have peace of mind at a reasonable cost. I highly reccomend this company, for repairs or replacement, they did a swell job."

"We bought a deal on Angie's List that resulted in significant discount from what a normal quote would have been, so they get an A+ on price.  The Belletto staff was friendly over phone, but service-wise, they had to delay our concrete replacement by over a month.  First it was because they were backed up; then it was because their "concrete truck broke."  After finishing the concrete and letting it dry, they were supposed to finish the job by replacing our front porch pole so that it could support the weight of the roof.  That was scheduled for a date that was two months after they initially replaced the concrete...not sure why.  But interestingly, they happened to be in the neighborhood on random weekday in mid-December and offered to install the pole.  It was pure luck that we happened to be home that day because we both work full time jobs on weekdays...  We didn't anticipate them coming so we had to rush to Lowe's to buy the pole while they waited in front of our house.  I suppose it was nice of them to wait.



Overall, we are satisfied with their work.  However the scheduling issues were a little annoying to deal with because first they kept postponing initiation of the work, and then they unexpectedly showed up early to finish the last part.  Nonetheless, it wasn't too bad and we managed to get it done...  I give them an A simply because I saved several hundred dollars, which was worth some of the scheduling nuances.

Pole Barn Builders questions, answered by experts

You may need a local building permit and written permission from your homeowner’s association to install a shed, especially if you’re doing any substantial land clearing or installing electricity or plumbing. Permit requirements vary between municipalities, so research the local laws before starting your project. If you hire a contractor to build the shed, they can help determine which permits will be necessary.

Depending on your needs, you may find a storebought pole barn is a much less expensive option than a custom-built one. You can find pole barn kits from big box retailers starting at $11,000, but you will be limited when it comes to size and add-on features. As long as you have the necessary skills, you can save on labor costs by doing it yourself; but there are a lot of different skill sets you would need, and mistakes during the building process can lead to excessive repair bills later.

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.

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. 

This answer varies based on where you are, but most states require that all homes are greater than 320 square feet. Remember that four walls are not the only requirements—windows, closet space, minimal ceiling heights, and indoor air quality are also factors. Each state and municipality differs, though, and as some don’t consider tiny homes permanent shelters, you’ll need to check to ensure you aren’t violating any local or state laws with your build.
