Taking the mystery out of the construction process, Monte Burch provides complete plans and step-by-step instructions for building more than 20 barns and outbuildings, including a greenhouse, equipment shed, horse barn, and even a small guest house. Stressing the adaptability and utility of the designs, this guide covers everything from initial planning and laying out a site to framing, roofing, wiring, and plumbing. Save on construction costs, enhance your property value, and take pride in a job well done as you build your custom-tailored barn.
Constructing your own small barn, shed, or utility structure will improve the value and appearance of your property whether you have one acre or a hundred. Plus, building it yourself can save as much as half the cost. Now expert help for the do-it-yourselfer arrives with How to Build Small Barns & Outbuildings, the long-awaited sequel to the classic Garden Way Publishing bestseller Building Small Barns, Sheds & Shelters (more than 200,000 copies sold). In his new book, Monte Burch begins by taking the reader through all the basics of construction, from planning to finishing--both inside and out. This is followed with more than 20 new designs and projects appropriate for both rural and suburban homeowners, including a livestock shelter, add-on garage, small guest house, and home workshop. How to Build Small Barns & Outbuildings offers projects with multi-use flexibility, so you can tailor your project to your specific needs. For example, there is an all-purpose barn design that can be adapted to serve multiple functions, as well as a combination greenhouse/woodshed and a home office/garage/guest house.
