"We had a few days delay due to the weather but once the process started everything went great. They cleaned up everything and it was a pleasure coming home to a new roof with no mess. I would highly recommend their work to anyone. Thank you Lakeside Construction."

"I worked with Apex Construction for both the design and construction of my renovations project. We converted our pole building into a mother-in-law suite. It turned out even better than I expected. It can be difficult finding people whose quality and integrity you can trust at a fair price. I will definitely use Apex again and again."

"Mack designed, ordered materials, provided labor and finished the job in a timely manner (2 weeks and 3 days). 
I paid 1/3 up front, 1/3 when the walls and ceiling was complete and the final 1/3 when I was completely satisfied with the results. 
I did go down to the county office to purchase the building permit. "

"These folks were prompt to respond and their estimating and scheduling practices were excellent. They came  on Monday and stuck to the job to completion. The end result exceeds our expectations. There are some areas in the finishing phase I wish I had intervened and asked them to do it differently. I am quite sure they would have corrected the issues to my satisfaction right there on the spot as they are very good listeners and aim to please their customer. Another plus to this company. The final look is superb. Cultured Creations should be very proud of their accomplishment. Thank you Cultured Creations."

"The job went as it should do when you hire a professional contractor. I got MD Masonry's quote within several days of request and the cost was competitive with other quotes received. I had their certificate of Insurance almost instantly and found them to be fully licensed to do the work. The work began on the scheduled day and progressed quickly. Danielle went out of her way to locate a particular and hard-to-find gravel for our planting bed behind the wall. She also suggested and implemented an additional retaining wall around a favorite tree to make use of the few leftover wall blocks and caps that we had supplied. We're looking forward to having MD Masonry back to help us with some brick and sidewalk repairs. The job cost in excess of $10,000. Danielle and her crew delivered above and beyond expectations. You won't go wrong with MD Masonry doing your project."

"This was NOT a satisfactory exp. Would not hire again. Hired for handy work thru Angi: Install lighting fixtures, faucets, leak in toilet assembly (though was flushing), installing outdoor solar lites, rescreening patio, seal leak in patio roof, garage repair etc. Day one no show. Day 2, staff arrived without supplies or incorrect supplies & spent 1/2 day at Home Depot. Not completed per our contract: garage was rendered 100% inoperable by an attempt to repair a smaller problem (he caused bolts dislodged from main track from testing & left unrepaired). Porch leak not repaired left with a bigger leak. 2 blown electrical outlets. Faucet installed with hot & cold reversed. fans & lites not wired properly leaving dead outlets/switches. Toilet unflushable strong enough. Screws, bolts, wires, stuck in rugs & floor. After firing them & attempting to resolve $ off with the owner on my own b/c I had to hire replacement contractor(s) After my initial phone call to list all the problems hours after he left he agreed to refund some of my payment. Thereafter Robert was unresponsive so had to file a formal complaint with Angi. Ultimately owner did refund 1/3 of the it cost me to fix work/damage. (I supplied emails, texts etc to prove the unresolved work to Angi) CHECK ALL reviews on Google, Nextdoor, BBB etc as there are other local dissatified customers despite the favorable reviews on Angi 3 star because his STAFF was on time, respectful and did the best with other repairs. I did tip the staff generously but before I was able to assess the damage costs with other contractors. I paid other contractors for full repair satisfaction."

FAQs for shed, barn or playhouse building service projects in Columbia, SC

Barndominiums cost $50 to $200 per square foot (or $65 to $160 per square foot for finished living areas). You’ll pay even more for a larger barn house. This project costs more than the typical barn construction because you’ll need elements like a kitchen, bathroom, and finished living spaces. Building a barn house is comparable to building an actual home.

A high-quality barn lasts 40 to 60 years when built with robust materials and maintained with dedicated care. Quality construction practices and a strict maintenance schedule ensure that key structural components, such as support posts and roofing, remain effective for more than 60 years. This long lifespan offers homeowners sustained functionality and reliability over time.

The project type determines the construction timeline for a barn. A standard pole barn finishes in six weeks, a traditionally framed or steel-framed barn concludes in four months or more, and a barndominium takes six months or longer due to the extensive design, electrical, plumbing, and finishing details. This schedule ensures each phase is completed efficiently by qualified professionals.

When planning to construct your barn, it's important to review local building codes and zoning regulations. These regulations may include guidelines on building height, property boundaries (setbacks), lot coverage, and easements. Understanding and complying with these requirements helps ensure your barn is built safely and legally and avoids any permitting delays.
