Barndominium Letter
May 2010
Mr. Divin,
Attached you will find a check for the balance of our invoice, which I
am cheerfully sending to you. Cheerfully, because my wife Linda and I have been
absolutely overjoyed by the way that you, Luke, and the rest of your staff of
WD Metal Buildings, have treated us and the care and detail that WD puts into
their buildings.
Linda and I have been trying to decide what to place out in Cat Spring, Texas
for an immediate weekend place and ultimately a manageable place to retire to
in the next 4-6 years. Over the past 5 years we have looked at everything
possible. They ranged from having a used cargo container placed out on the land
and making it over into a manufactured home to a $385,000 oversized, “Texas
rock house”.
We were told about some of the “BARNDOMINIUMS” that were popping up across the
state. We were told about several in Austin County that people were really
happy with. Upon inquiring who erected the barn part of it WDMB was the usual
answer. I looked for you on the web and was amazed that you have a very simple
way of pricing them out just like the customer wants. The customer decides what
they can afford, and there is no haggling. Other steel builders were always
evasive about costs. WDMB pricing is up front and doesn’t contain any of those
“BY THE WAY” charges.
When we spoke with other metal building companies, we were always turned off by
their high tech sales approaches. There was no real “Trust Factor” when we
talked with them. Whether I spoke with you, Luke, or your field staff I
received the same considerate, patient information. I asked to be explained
what was to happen, what was happening, and what did happen. WDMB has a totally
believable business model.
Linda and I had been at odds about who we could get to form up and handle
pouring the slab…did we know how to set the plumbing up “in the slab”. Who
could we get to dig a well…put in a septic system, frame it up so that we could
have the plumbing done. Your recommendation was great. When the day came we
found that there are some very capable people in our backyard. I found it most
assuring that you had prepped me with some explanations on how the use of a
metal building instead of brick could pay dividend in the future on electricity
usage.
Not only would the reflectivity of the metal roof assist in keeping energy
consumption down, but the additives they put in the paint do the same, and when
properly framed out it allows for the use of R-19 instead of R-13 in the walls
and up to R-30 in attic areas. These were things that we were looking to find
because as we all know electricity prices just keep on rising.
I think that most 50 year olds and over, like Linda and myself, are starting to
see that our savings seem to be dwindling daily. There are very small returns
on our investments. We need a new way of looking at having our money last
longer. The normal way is to not spend more than you make and pay yourself
first, but that only goes so far.
We believe that utilizing your building will allow us to spend more money on the
inside to make it as nice as any $400,000.00 to $1,000,000.00 condo where you
are at the mercy of staff. Plus, it will keep an extra $100,00.00 to
$200,000.00 or more in our bank account.
Thank you to all your people. We have found the perfect answer for our
retirement plans. Your patience, understanding and expertise have proven to be
priceless.
Thank you for getting us headed down the path to our golden years.
Sincerely,
Richard and Linda Clayton

Dear Wayne,
Your expert team of builders finished work on our 40' x 80' tractor shed in
Weimar yesterday.
I have enjoyed working with your company. I had high expectations and
your
building team exceeded them all! Specifically, the care that
each person put into their work resulted in a finished product that I am very
proud of!
They took a special interest in working out the details of installing the
special windows my wife wanted in the structure. Your crew worked
safely, neatly, and efficiently! And they were patient with my
questions.
Not only is the building beautiful, but also the grounds were left spotless!
When my brother and I build additional structures at our farm, we will
choose your company.
I highly recommend WD Metal Buildings to anyone wanting to build a
metal building!
Respectfully,

Christopher Sokol

Dear Wayne:
Thanks again for the great job done building my barn! Despite picking and
poking for the last week, I haven't found a single detail that wasn't
executed to the highest standard. Having a barn
built by the lowest bidder, who also happened to be a 'total stranger' from
half way across the state, was cause for some concern!
I see now that concern was totally unfounded. Your guys showed up, put up
and cleaned up, all on time and without complaint. The results are
beautiful!
Please distribute the enclosed to the crew who worked on my barn as a "Thank
You," and an early Christmas Bonus.
If you ever have a prospective client in the Willis area that wants a reference,
or would like to see a sample barn, please feel free to give them my
number and e-mail.
Best Regards,
Will Boytim
