Handyman ready to improve your household problems.
"Tyler is very professional and friendly. I needed some extra hands moving and getting tvs and furniture mounted and moved and secured. I explained what I needed once and he ran with it. Inviting a stranger into your home can be anxiety inducing but Tyler has a very calming energy and eased those fears immediately. Even the dogs loved him. He also went the extra step to hide the wires which I super appreciated. Would definitely hire again!"

Norse Construction, LLC is a unique small business. Over my 30 plus years of construction I've had numerous customers tell me of contractors who don't show up, don't clean up after themselves, build what THEY want and NOT what the homeower wants. Its simple. I started Norse simply because you should have what YOU want and when you want it - period.
"We attempted to have our unfinished basement finished in 2020. The project started in June of 2020 and was terminated unfinished in January of 2021. Total cost of the partial project was $75,771. Several issues led to the termination of the project. The primary was lack of actual project management and ability to take responsibility for errors by the contractor, which, in addition to being frustrating, contributed to the unnecessarily long project time of 7 months while still not being finished. Examples include: - An I-Beam for a heavy-bag track was to be installed on the ceiling. It was installed in the incorrect location and extremely poorly, to the point where flanges were overlapping. When confronted, the contractor stated that it just "wasn't finished". However, the correction required the complete removal and re-installation. Then the contractor claimed the issue was due to insufficient instruction supplied, even though all required information was in fact supplied. The installation crew was simply not competent and failed to install as instructed. - Wood panels were put on a large portion of the ceiling. Several conversations in writing instructed that there was to be no more work done after the initial paint as we liked the look as is. When painters were on-site for the walls, it was confirmed with them verbally that the ceiling was complete and not to perform work on them. However, they caulked and painted it anyway. When confronted, the contractor stated it was always known that this work was to be done. He also said it was only painted and not caulked, which was clearly not the case. Additionally, when shown texts and emails where we explicitly requested no more work done to the ceiling and that he also stated it was complete, he simply ignored it. - When ordering a vanity, he sent us to a shop to select one. However, when it came time to need the vanity, we found it had never actually been ordered. The contractor blamed us for not ordering it while at the shop, however the person at the shop later confirmed the hold up was the contractor not confirming the order. These are some of the biggest examples, but there were communication issues throughout the project. The termination of the contact didn't go any better than the rest of the project. We were told up front, in writing, that we would be billed for all services each week for the prior week. However, when we were settling up after the contract was terminated, there were many costs he was back charging for, meaning they were not billed during the week of work as the original contract stated. One of the items had no reciept. One of the bigger issues here was the painting. The painting cost was much too high relative to the original bid price based on actual work performed. When asked for an itemized bill for painting, it included painting work that had not been performed. The contractor ultimately removed the item for which he didn't have a receipt and reduced the paint cost by some amount. It was still not correct, but we agreed to pay to end the situation."

Pole buildings use heavy vertical posts that anchor into the ground to support the structure, with supporting columns attached to the tops of the beams to hold the roof in place. Construction is fast without sacrificing significant support or reliability. Different types of post-frame buildings can include optional flooring or walls.
The benefits of using a post‐frame construction method are clear: it delivers significant cost savings by eliminating the need for a full foundation. This approach provides sturdy support with in-ground posts while cutting material and labor expenses. In fact, the method delivers 40% cost savings relative to metal building methods, making it an excellent economic choice for constructing barns, sheds, or playhouses with enduring stability and efficiency.
The durability of a pole barn is proven by its lifespan of 40 to 60 years and the potential to reach 100 years with enhancements. Reinforced with metal components and maintained diligently, these structures deliver lasting performance. In contrast, stick-built buildings offer durability for 60 to 80 years but require more extensive construction, making pole barns a reliable long-term investment when properly upgraded.
The best foundation for a pole barn depends on its use and budgetary restraints. Most homeowners and builders use a concrete cookie pad, which is the most affordable option while still offering stability. Perma-columns, which are precast concrete columns that keep wood out of the ground, are usually the most expensive, longest-lasting option. They can prevent posts from rotting.
Financing a pole barn with a traditional mortgage is not possible because lenders do not approve conventional home loans for these structures. Homeowners must explore alternative financing or specialized credit options. Pole barns require additional considerations such as increased insulation costs and specific permit requirements, so funding these projects demands thorough research into alternative loan structures to secure the investment.
