"Kevin is super responsive and was extremely detailed in all the design details before we were even placed on the schedule. Once on the schedule it all happened in the time frame that Kevin said it would happen. Drew, who does the work, is really experienced and knows what he is doing. He is very pleasant and was flexible to accommodate small changes as we went along. There were a few picky attention to detail things that I wonder about and was a little surprised that Kevin didn't come around at the completion of the job for a walk through to make sure we were happy with everything. But the bottom line is that we love the porch and overall are really happy with the way everything went. We especially love the pet door that Drew built and the hardware that Kevin came up with.

FAQs for shed, barn or playhouse building service projects in Indianapolis, IN
The ideal depth for a root cellar depends on your local frost line and climate conditions. The goal is to achieve a consistent temperature between 32°F and 60°F year-round. In warmer southern regions, you may need deeper excavation or supplemental cooling systems, while northern areas focus more on preventing freezing.
Understanding your soil composition and water table is essential for determining appropriate depth and drainage needs to maintain a stable environment for your stored produce.
Most municipalities require permits for root cellar construction, particularly for projects involving excavation or structural modifications. Permit costs range from $1,200 to $2,000, depending on your location.
The application process often requires submitting detailed plans showing drainage solutions and structural elements. Checking local regulations early in your planning process helps avoid potential fines or construction delays, especially for projects near property lines or those requiring utility connections.
Professional root cellar construction spans several weeks, with timelines varying based on design complexity and weather conditions. The process includes initial excavation, foundation work, structural construction, ventilation installation, and finishing touches. Permit processing and inspections add to the timeline.
Working with experienced professionals results in more efficient completion compared to DIY approaches, though seasonal factors and contractor availability can affect scheduling.
Concrete represents the most common material choice for permanent root cellars due to its durability and moisture resistance. For above-ground structures, properly sealed pressure-treated lumber offers good performance at lower cost.
Effective insulation is crucial regardless of construction type, with different materials suited to various climate conditions. Quality doors with proper seals help maintain consistent internal conditions, while corrosion-resistant hardware ensures longevity in humid environments.
Most produce stores work best at humidity levels between 80% and 90%. A hygrometer (costing approximately $25) helps monitor conditions accurately. For low humidity, placing containers of water or damp materials in the cellar can increase moisture levels.
When humidity rises too high, improving air circulation through adjustable vents helps reduce excess moisture. Different crops may require varying humidity levels, so organizing your storage accordingly helps optimize preservation. Regular maintenance prevents condensation buildup and potential mold issues.
