How We Build

The post-frame construction process

Post-frame construction has stood the test of time. While methods may vary, the strong fundamentals remain the same — here’s how we bring your project from the ground up.

Post Holes & Treated Posts

Treated posts are set into post holes approximately 4 feet deep.

Girts & Horizontals

Once posts are set, girts are added to form the wall framework.

Trusses & Purlins

Roof trusses are installed and purlins are added to complete the roof framework.

Doors, Windows & Framing

Doors and windows are installed, completing the building’s
structural shell.

Metal Covering

Metal siding and roofing are installed in your choice of customizable colors and finishes.

Finishing Options

Add insulation, concrete, electrical, heat, overhangs, and interior finishes anytime — fully customizable to your needs.

Why Post-Frame?

A great alternative to conventional stick-built construction

Pole buildings eliminate the need for traditional frost footers. Concrete floors are optional and can be poured anytime after the building is finished.

Metal siding creates a virtually maintenance-free building — holding its color and sheen for many years, eliminating annual scraping and painting.

Customize your building's colors

We offer a wide variety of color choices for the roof, trim, siding, and doors — so your pole building looks exactly the way you envision it. Talk to James about color options during your consultation.
