I ran across a Amish fella that has his own construction company. They do rough in and finish work and also build complete homes, garages, barns. etc. They also put on metal roofs.
I hired them for a first project and they were really good. So, I hired them to put metal roofs on my house/attached garage (Music Room), my "geetar bar" where I used to do some heavy partying, a 1st 24'X42' barn with a finished upstairs and a 2nd 24X42 barn used for storage.
I gotta say, these guys are amazing, friendly, courteous and do just exceptional work. I trust them completely and have no problems taking off for the day while they do their work. I trust them completely. I've found they are not the cheapest or the most expensive but right around the middle price-wise which is kind of what I like, personally.
They are now finishing off the upstairs of the 1st barn and doing the walls/ceiling in a knotty pine and floor in a nice laminate wood look. That is going to become my 2nd music room where I set up my electric gear (and a few acoustic pieces + lap steel etc.) and just crank and wail. (I live pretty much in the middle of nowhere with little chance I'll be disturbing anybody) It was already pretty nicely finished but I think this is going to come out really sweet.
Anyway, don't know if any of you have used Amish workmen before or if there are any Amish communities in your area but if so and if they're all like the guys I have, I highly recommend them for any work you might be considering.
I'll get some pics posted at some point (provided Eric is willing to help me again) and share with you how it turns out.
