If you need your gravel driveway leveled and/or gravel spread or if you need a backhoe to dig a trench or remove a tree stump give me a call. I have a 32 HP Kubota tractor with bucket loader, grapple, backhoe, box blade, landscaping rake, and rototiller. My bucket and box blade are 72" wide. My tiller is 60" wide and great for preparing gardens or beds.

"Tyler and his family are incredible people with an incredible work ethic. We had a 200ft gravel driveway installed brand new. I had in my head how it should be done as well as look when completed. Let me tell you, expectations were exceeded by a long shot! It's a work of art to me. Compared to everyone else's driveway in the area. Tyler was one of the best contractors I've ever worked with. Period!"

My specialty is carpentry and painting, but during 20 years of experience working on interiors and exteriors of houses I have learned to do everything in a house except air conditioning. I like my job and most importantly I like the clients to be satisfied and happy I like to give clients ideas about what they need but they make their own decisions about what they want to do, and I like to please them in whatever they need. I am 20 years of experience in handymen

"I recommend it, the workers they sent were very respectful and did the job in exactly the right time. They left it clean. I will hire them again to remodel my bathroom."

Shed, barn or playhouse building services FAQs

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.
