I hired Yoder Barns in March 2025 to build a 24’ x 36’ detached garage with 14’ side walls in a suburban residential neighborhood. Prior to deciding to hire Yoder Barns for this project, I performed my due diligence and spoke with several former customers. After hearing nothing but good things regarding the build quality and Amish workmanship, I signed the contract with Yoder Barns. The metalwork on my garage does not reflect this claim of quality Amish workmanship. In addition, the build crew didn’t bother giving the trusses a quick wipe down to remove chunks of dried mud and muddy footprints prior to installation. These sections are 16+ feet up and cannot be reached by the homeowner. This isn’t a farm barn; it’s a residential garage. This is not the caliber work that I was promised as being Amish workmanship and attention to detail. It’s lazy and sloppy. I reached out to Adam Whitney, owner of Yoder Barns, via the Consumer Protection Section of the State of Ohio Attorney General’s Office asking for the workmanship issues to be corrected by Yoder Barns. The issues not only fall under the original build which still has not been closed out (no final walkthrough and no customer signature for project completion), but they also fall under Yoder Barns 5-Year Workmanship Warranty. I’ll update this review based on how Adam Whitney decides to address this situation. Edit: I have heard nothing directly from Adam since the end of August 2025 other than an emailed receipt on 9-18-25. Since he claims that he has attempted to contact me multiple times, he can feel free to prove it. The final walkthrough that was scheduled by Adam for 8-14-25, that he didn’t show up for, was the opportunity for Adam to see these issues and address them accordingly. As of today, more than 2 months have passed since the build was completed and Adam has yet to contact me to schedule the final walkthrough and customer signature for project completion. Update 11/1/25 Adam Whitney still has not contacted me to address the issues shown in the photos, nor has he supported his claim that he had attempted to contact me multiple times. Update 11/18/25 After several back and forth messages with Adam Whitney, he still has yet to say whether or not Yoder Barns will honor their workmanship warranty and come fix the issues with my garage. Update 11/26/25 Adam Whitney still hasn’t agreed to come fix ALL the issues with my garage, not just the rake trim which is the easiest fix. We’ve been emailing for over 3 weeks and most recently he threatened to void my build warranty unless I call him. He doesn’t want to discuss anything in writing due to accountability. His email is in the photos.

Update 11/1/25 Adam Whitney still has not contacted me to address the issues shown in the photos, nor has he supported his claim that he had attempted to contact me multiple times.

Update 11/18/25 After several back and forth messages with Adam Whitney, he still has yet to say whether or not Yoder Barns will honor their workmanship warranty and come fix the issues with my garage.

Update 11/26/25 Adam Whitney still hasn’t agreed to come fix ALL the issues with my garage, not just the rake trim which is the easiest fix. We’ve been emailing for over 3 weeks and most recently he threatened to void my build warranty unless I call him. He doesn’t want to discuss anything in writing due to accountability. His email is in the photos.

I hired Yoder Barns in March 2025 to build a 24’ x 36’ detached garage with 14’ side walls in a suburban residential neighborhood. Prior to deciding to hire Yoder Barns for this project, I performed my due diligence and spoke with several former customers. After hearing nothing but good things regarding the build quality and Amish workmanship, I signed the contract with Yoder Barns.

The metalwork on my garage does not reflect this claim of quality Amish workmanship. In addition, the build crew didn’t bother giving the trusses a quick wipe down to remove chunks of dried mud and muddy footprints prior to installation. These sections are 16+ feet up and cannot be reached by the homeowner. This isn’t a farm barn; it’s a residential garage. This is not the caliber work that I was promised as being Amish workmanship and attention to detail. It’s lazy and sloppy.

I reached out to Adam Whitney, owner of Yoder Barns, via the Consumer Protection Section of the State of Ohio Attorney General’s Office asking for the workmanship issues to be corrected by Yoder Barns.

The issues not only fall under the original build which still has not been closed out (no final walkthrough and no customer signature for project completion), but they also fall under Yoder Barns 5-Year Workmanship Warranty. I’ll update this review based on how Adam Whitney decides to address this situation.

Edit: I have heard nothing directly from Adam since the end of August 2025 other than an emailed receipt on 9-18-25. Since he claims that he has attempted to contact me multiple times, he can feel free to prove it. The final walkthrough that was scheduled by Adam for 8-14-25, that he didn’t show up for, was the opportunity for Adam to see these issues and address them accordingly. As of today, more than 2 months have passed since the build was completed and Adam has yet to contact me to schedule the final walkthrough and customer signature for project completion.

Ethan, I have attempted to contact you multiple times. These issues have never been brought to any ones attention. I am willing to discuss these concerns. We take pride in our quality workmanship.

Don Cox 2025.10.30

I tried for two months to get a simple quote on a project and got absolutely nowhere. I called during business hours twice and went to voicemail and left messages that never got returned. I finally got through on the third try and spoke with Stan in the West Salem office. He gave me Nathan's number in the Brunswick office, so I called him. He had me send him pictures of similar projects. He then referred me back to the West Salem office to talk to Adam who I called and left a message for. Never heard back so called Stan back. Finally got a call back from Adam who had me send him pics of an example project (same as Nathan), then said he would follow up with me the following week as he was going out of town. Never heard anything. I see plenty of other people have had good experience with this company, but from what I can tell they don't communicate or follow up at all and are disorganized.

Don I am sorry you had this experience. I would love the opportunity to help you with your project needs. If you could give me a call I would be happy to help you out.

Laura Lutz 2025.03.17

I received a 10 x 12 greenhouse as a present from my boyfriend. The framework of the greenhouse is built solid and like in the model. However the shelving inside was supposed to be treated wood and come with 2 braces to support the weight of the flats when in use. When looking at the model before ordering my boyfriend asked about the shelves made from treated wood and the 2 braces to hold the weight of the shelf. The salesman said that the shelves were treated wood but the rest of the frame was not. When my boyfriend went back to the main office to complain that it was not made out of the materials shown in the model. He was told that that is how they make them now. He had just ordered it 3 weeks ago and nothing was said that the final product would be different from the model. For a company that states they pride themselves on honesty and quality, they do not follow through. Would not recommend

Reply from Yoder Barns 2025.03.17

Laura, good afternoon. I am sorry to hear you are unhappy with your purchase. I know my salesman was on the phone with your boyfriend and was trying to explain to him that the greenhouse display we have was the very first prototype built in January of 2024 and since then we had made some changes for pricing purposes based on customer's expectations, but he hung up on my salesman before he could explain any of that. My salesman was trying to explain to him and was prepared to see what we could do. Unfortunately, it didn't get to that point with your boyfriend. Yoder Barns does and will continue to pride ourselves on the honesty and quality we strive to achieve. Thank you for your input regarding this.

Steve Oimoen 2025.03.15

Yoder Barns was awesome, from the owner, project manager, builders, and the delivery drivers. Signed a contract and nine days later our 30'x40' pole barn was done. Actual construction done in 9 hours over 1.25 days...absolutely amazing. Quality, professional work and job site cleaned up meticulously. Would highly recommend!

I have 2 barns from these guys so far - 1 is a storage shed for yard tools and equipment, the other is a gardening shed. Every experience has been fantastic. We're coming back for a 3rd barn for our livestock! This team pays attention to detail and is adamant on quality. They're fair and honest. We've recommended them to others and will continue to do so!

Adam, the salesman has been so accommodating. I literally have asked over 100 questions I am sure and he has answered them all. The Amish crew that came out to build the building did a great job, the concrete guys did great. Still waiting on the garage door and gutter but I am confident they will get that done in the near future. Every step of the process from change orders to build date has been great. They even built 2 weeks earlier than we had originally scheduled which was a great treat. I can't say enough good things about this company, their customer service and workmanship. I am 100% happy with everything so far, I would recommend them to anyone. They just made the process easy for those of us that are not experts. Dozens of options, change orders and questions and they never gave me any grief. A smooth process. Update: 7-25-2023- Just thought I would update and say the door went up in time, fit and finish are excellent. Very happy with the product. One thing I love is how easy it is to customize the interior with some light DIY. I added a mini split, R29 insulation, plywood walls, painted the plywood and put a coat on the floor. With the insulation in the walls this thing keeps cool or warm with very little energy and it was super easy to personalize last winter.

Our 12 x 16 shed was delivered today from Yoder Barns. We purchased the barn through Ohio Outdoor Structures in Dalton, OH. Great construction, exact design as requested. Delivery was smooth and took about 10 minutes to set and level right off the trailer. Very pleased with the experience and the product. Highly recommend Ohio Outdoor Structures and Yoder Barns!
