Texas Building Center

Dec 2019

2 year as ago my husband and I decided we wanted to build a Bardominum on our property in Llano County. Our place is somewhat “off the beaten path” and we quickly learned that because of our location we would have some obstacles to overcome. We began our project, as many would, by asking friends and neighbors for referrals and recommendations. After calling several local building contractors we were told either we were too remote or that it would be 18-24 months before we would have a finished structure (not what we expected). So, we went back to the drawing board and started combing the internet and that’s when we discovered Texas Building Center in Kingsland, TX. Now, my husband and I live several hours away from our property, we knew that this project would require some travel and we had prepared to go to Kingsland for an initial meeting. So I called to set something up and that’s when I met Mike Tatom. After talking to Mike about our project he said it wouldn’t be necessary for us to travel to Kingsland, but that he and his family would be vacationing in our area and said he would be happy to meet with me. What? Seriously who would take time away from a family vacation to meet with a potential client that might not even hire you? Mike Tatom would, and Mike Tatom did. During our meeting Mike was realistic about the construction schedule, our budget and some of the obstacles we might have to overcome. I felt like Mike really listened to my concerns and that he understood our vision. The next step was to meet out at our property and select a build site, and I’ll just say that Mike really has an eye for what a front porch view should look like (ours is breathtaking!). However, the project was not without its roadblocks. From dealing with uncooperative utility companies and weather delays to digging through equipment damaging granite, Mike handled all of it with timely communication and a diligent commitment to staying on schedule. Throughout the project Jodi Tatom, Mike’s lovely wife, was a real lifesaver too. She was so patient and really helpful with selecting finishes, running to Home Depot for me more than a dozen times or so, explaining the billing process and generally helped me from freaking out and feeling overwhelmed.. I felt like she listened and there wasn’t a single time that she didn’t return a phone call or answer a text message on the same day. Right on schedule the day arrived, our new Barndominium was ready. So we hired some big strong guys too help us get our things loaded into a moving truck and we would be on our way. But we had one little problem, the weather wasn’t cooperating and how in the world would my husband and I unload everything ourselves when we got there? So, I called Jodi and asked if she knew of anyone that could help us unload all of our stuff, when she said she could have a few guys meet us at our place I was shocked! After a long, and somewhat treacherous drive we arrived to find Mike, L.E. (Mike’s after-in-law), one of L.E.’s friends, 3 guys from Texas Building Center and thoughtfully prepared welcome basket full of goodies. It took them a little over an hour to unload everything and get things in their respective rooms. They really made it easy. So I’ll end this by saying, from start to finish the ENTIRE team at Texas Building Center went way above and beyond our expectations. Good honest people, with a quality product are extremely rare to find in the world we live in. We are just so very grateful to have found those qualities in the folks at Texas Building Center. Mike, Jodi, L.E., Wendell, Chad and everyone else at Texas Building Center, Thank You all for treating us like family, this has been one of the most fun and educational experiences we’ve had. We couldn’t be happier….and we’d do it all over again just to work with you guys.

I had a great experience working with Texas Building Center on my shop and carport combo. My lot presented some limiting factors but Mike and the crew at TBC came up with a good plan and it turned out great! If you are in the market for a metal building or barndominium you should give Texas Building Center a call.

I highly recommend TX Building Center to anyone with metal Bldg needs, Mike and his staff are easy to work with from start to finish, and the quality of the product and the workmanship were on point, they built a warehouse for me, and I couldn’t be happier
