After getting three estimates, we decided to go with Pacemaker based off positive word-of-mouth recommendations. Their estimate was sent over within 24 hours. From start to finish they did an excellent job. All the contractors are friendly professional and clean. Definitely recommend. Service: Barn design & building

I was entertaining buying a house in Fort Wayne, IN. The description in the listing mentioned Pacemaker as the outboulding. I called them up and worked with Jack and their office and they were able to look up the job and to give me information about the door on the trailer that it was at the max height. They did not have to take time out to help me but they did. Once I find a home and we need a outbuilding, I will use them.

Pacemaker was great to work with on my garage pole barn. From the initial contact with office through completion they were great to work with. Prompt response to any questions. Offered several cost savings ideas to get the building I needed. Crew onsite went extra mile to do quality work. Thank you for a job well done.
