Has anyone built a Barndo in the Beaumont area? Me and my wife are about to get out of the sardine can neighborhood and get back to some land, and I really thing the best thing for our family right now will be a barndo. I'm thinking a 60' x 40' building, with the living area being 30' x 40' which rounds out to 1200 sq ft. This will be our home for a while until we save up enough cash to pay cash to build our forever home. Does anyone have any experience with barndo builders in the area? Anyone to stay away from? Any advice will be awesome! I've searched a bunch of threads and I think I know what to expect, but we're up for any information that can help us come out ahead. Also if you have a similar sized barndo please share some pics!

What area of Beaumont? Someone may be selling a Barnado with the right acreage now that you could move to.

Land is done and paid for. We'll sell our house, and hopefully between now and the time its all said and done be able to pay cash for everything. This is why we want to make the barndo nice enough that we'll like living there, with the option of an upstairs just in case our family grows while we are in there.Originally posted by Black Ice View PostComment

We'll be north of that. We'll be between hwy 90 and hwy 105. About 5 minutes from where Tram Rd runs into hwy 105.Originally posted by Black Ice View PostComment

I had a buddy who built one out towards Sour Lake and he suggested Bevilacqua Construction and I have another buddy building one currently who is using CRW contractors. CRW built one for his dad and he said it was quick and I’ve seen it and it turned out really nice.Comment

Bando's aren't anything special to build most any of your reputable contractors can build it for you. The main thing is to have a good set of plans before you pour your foundation for plumbing and any floor electrical. I have a buddy that's a builder in Baytown/Mont Belvieu area but I don't think he will venture that far out. He has built a few of them around my area.Comment

I don't know anything about barndo builders, but I do know Sammy Bevilacqua and he is a good dude and a good contractor.Originally posted by gander View PostComment
