Business
We Started in a Backyard in 1999
Back in 1999 we started building barns. We started out building vinyl sided portable storage sheds in our backyard and over the years we have added different sizes, styles, and materials to our product lineup based on our customers' needs - and here we are 27 years later still building barns.
Our goal is to "Overcome The Ordinary" by producing our own Designer Materials siding panels, roofing panels, and continuously improving our doors, windows, and construction methods. True quality comes from attention to detail during construction - the finished product can only be as good as the care given throughout the process.

"Kristen was excellent to work with. The pricing was reasonable, and cheaper than the couple local places we looked at (we're in Southwest VA). On installation day the crew arrived, put up the building and insulation, and was gone in about 11 hours. I'd recommend them to anyone."
