Revised: February 22, 2022
Metal or steel BARNDOMINIMUMS are typically cost prohibitive in eastern North Carolina. Our belief is that this is due to the overwhelming amount of misinformation and underpriced products on the internet, spread by unqualified people with unverifiable experience, or knowledge. Therefore, we no longer advertise Barndo services.
