East Coast Barn Builders (ECBB) was started in 1960 by Ed Cady, a carpenter and a contractor.  He was one of the first to preserve English and Dutch style barns, moving them to new locations and rebuilding these barns into custom homes.   ECBB builds homes looking like 1800′s barns, keeping the barn look and feel on the inside while creating an attractive, natural, low maintenance exterior.  ECBB uses advanced envelope insulation techniques to provide heating efficiency  while creating an appealing antique look.  We have built homes on the Hamptons on Long Island, New York, Columbia, South Carolina to San Francisco and California.  In the last 45+ years ECBB has completed over 350 projects and can architecturally design and build any home or outbuilding to suit your needs. Through the years we have become the largest mover of antique post and beam frames in the country.
