Frequently Asked Questions

What’s included with my pole barn plan purchase?

Each plan includes detailed construction drawings, a complete materials list, dimensioned layouts, and step-by-step building instructions. You’ll receive a downloadable digital file (PDF) that you can print or view on any device.

Can I build this myself, or do I need professional help?

Our pole barn plans are designed for DIY builders, even those with moderate experience. That said, you can always hire a contractor or local builder to assist if you prefer professional support.

Do I need a building permit?

Most areas require a building permit for new structures, including pole barns. Always check with your local building department for specific codes, setbacks, and inspection requirements before beginning construction.

Are the plans customizable?

Yes, many builders adjust the layout, doors, or window placements to meet their needs. Minor modifications are usually easy, but for major structural changes, consult an engineer or qualified builder to ensure safety and compliance.

What type of foundation do these plans use?

Pole barns (also known as post-frame buildings) use embedded posts or columns set in the ground or on concrete footings for support. This design is strong, cost-effective, and adaptable to various site conditions.

What materials will I need?

Each plan includes a complete materials list specifying lumber sizes, hardware, roofing, siding, and any other required components. You can source these materials locally from your preferred supplier.

How long does construction take?

Build time varies based on size, skill level, weather, and help available. Many DIYers complete smaller barns within a week or two, while larger builds may take a month to build.

How much will it cost to build a pole barn?

The cost to build a pole barn can range from $20 to $40+ per square foot, with total costs varying widely based on size, design, finishes, and labor. A basic storage barn might cost around $20-$25 per square foot, while a workshop or a more customized, finished building can cost $25-$40+ per square foot.

Do the plans meet building codes?

Our designs follow standard post-frame construction practices. However, since building codes vary by location, you should verify local requirements or have the plans reviewed by a licensed professional if needed.

What if I have questions during construction?

If you run into questions about materials or steps in the plan, you can contact our support team for guidance. We’re here to help ensure your build goes smoothly.
