POLE BARN HOMES

Creating a more comfortable home

What is a pole barn home?

A residential pole barn home, or a barndominium, is the ideal alternative to a conventional “stick-built” house when you want to combine a living space with a multi-use toy shed, workshop, or extra-large garage for boats, RVs, and more.

Pole barn homes can be designed and built for a variety of uses: a year-round dwelling, a guest house, or a weekend getaway home. On top of that, pole barn homes open the possibility for incorporating your hobbies and interests into a single structure.

Benefits of a pole barn home

  • Greater floor plan flexibility
  • More expansive interiors
  • Easier construction of extra-high walls, extra-large windows
  • A consolidated structure means lower construction costs and possibly reduces your taxes
  • Fewer building components leads to faster construction time
  • Better foundation options
  • Better adaptability to site/soil conditions
  • Future additions made easier
  • Superior durability
  • Cost effective vaulted ceilings
  • More insulation, fewer thermal breaks

Types of pole barn homes

A pole barn provides maximum flexibility for your building project, but no matter what type of pole barn you're looking for, quality should be your top priority. Your pole building has to meet your needs in terms of storage and aesthetics, but it also has to be built to withstand weather and general wear and tear.
