Pole barn pricing varies based on size, features, and finishes. 

Typical ranges:

Basic Pole Barn (no floor, standard doors): $15-25 per square foot 

Mid-Range (gravel floor, better doors, electrical): $25-35 per square foot 

Finished (concrete floor, insulated, fully finished): $35-50+ per square foot

Example: A 30' x 40' (1,200 sq ft) basic barn typically runs $18,000-$30,000 depending on specifications.

We provide detailed written quotes with all options clearly itemized.

Do I need a building permit? Most pole barns over 200 square feet require a permit in Warren County. Requirements vary by county - we handle this for you.

How long does construction take? Most pole barns are completed in 1-3 weeks depending on size and weather.

Can you match my existing buildings? Yes, we can match roof color, siding color, and general style to your existing structures.

Do you build on sloped ground? Yes, we can build on slopes using proper grading or stepped foundations.

What's the lifespan of a pole barn? With proper maintenance, metal-sided pole barns last 40-60+ years. Treated poles last 50+ years in-ground.

Can I add electrical service later? Yes, but it's much easier and cheaper to include it during construction.
