Pole Barns
Pole Barns, built by one builder
Most people start calling pole barn builders when the tractor, the hay and the camper have run out of room. On Colorado acreage a pole barn is the most direct way to get all of it under one steel roof, but the site decides how it has to be built. Snow loads climb with elevation, so a barn near Monument needs more roof than one in Brighton. Wind across the plains and the Palmer Divide pulls hard on big doors. Expansive clay can heave a floor poured on a poor base. A good pole barn here is engineered for the ground it stands on.
The builder behind Colorado Barn Builders is Quality Garage Builders, a licensed and insured general contractor in Parker with more than 25 years of construction experience. We build pole barns in every town within 100 miles, from the Denver metro and Castle Rock to Greeley, Colorado Springs, Limon and the foothills. One builder handles the whole job: we design and engineer the barn, take care of the permit, prepare the site, set the wood posts and trusses, and finish it in steel with doors, insulation and a concrete floor. You get a progress update every week.

Travis S.

“Mike is a true professional in every way. Versatile, reliable, well skilled, and extremely knowledgeable. Easy to work with and a hard worker. His pricing is reasonable and his estimates for his work were spot on. I trusted him completely, as I am an absentee owner and could not be on site to oversee progress. He gave me updates and photos. A great find. Would recommend without any reservation. Hire him if u want it done right and on time.”

“Mike was great at communicating with me and was incredibly competitive in his pricing. The work was done quickly and was high quality. I would absolutely recommend his company to anyone needing work done on their houses.”
Lora T.
Home project · HomeAdvisor review
“I am so appreciative of the quality, responsiveness, and value that Mike Fowler and his crew performed on completely remodeling and expanding our kitchen including moving walls. He did it in a timely manner, provided progress updates often and finished the job in record time. We get compliments all the time on the quality of the work and how our kitchen has been completely transformed. He coordinated or did himself all the carpentry, electrical, appliance installation, cabinets, and countertop installation after we approved the plan he drew out for us. I also used him to add a shower to my laundry room, cut down a huge tree in my yard, and put a new face around my fireplace. I would highly recommend Mike for ANY remodeling work you are considering for your house. His prices are competitive too”

“Mike has done my entire unfinished basement and his work ethics and willingness to work with changing design needs is exceptional. Mike's patience and quality of work is exceptional. His only goal is to ensure that customer is happy and he doesn't hesitate to redo things if customer wanted differently. I was very happy with his work and did recommend to a friend who is doing his complete basement. he is very affordable versus some of the crazy quotes we got.”

Questions
Pole Barns FAQs
How much does a pole barn cost in Colorado?
It depends mostly on size, eave height, doors and how finished the inside is. An open hay barn and an insulated pole barn garage with a concrete floor are very different jobs. The site matters too: snow load rises with elevation, and a sloped lot or expansive clay takes more ground work than a flat, firm pad. We walk the site, go over what you need and quote it for free.
How do you build a pole barn for Colorado snow, wind and soil?
We engineer every barn for the ground snow load and wind exposure where it stands, which the county sets and which rises with elevation. On the plains and the Palmer Divide we put extra care into anchoring and door bracing, because big doors catch the wind. Posts go below the local frost depth, and on expansive clay we prepare the base so the floor can handle movement and water drains away.
Do I need a permit for a pole barn?
Usually, yes. On unincorporated land the county issues the permit, and inside town limits the city does. Acreage subdivisions often add HOA or covenant rules on size, height and color, and some counties treat agricultural buildings differently. We check the rules for your parcel before we design the barn, then work with the building department and handle the permit for you.
What size pole barn should I build?
Start with the biggest thing you will park inside. Your tallest machine or camper sets the door and eave height, and you want room to walk around everything with the doors closed. The real limits are usually the lot, the setbacks and the permit. Barns fill up fast, so we size yours for what you will own in a few years, not just today.
Can you pour the floor and insulate the barn too?
Yes, it is all part of the same job. We prepare the base and pour the concrete floor, and if the barn will be heated we lay radiant tubing before the pour. We also insulate the roof and walls with vapor control and finish the inside, so the barn can work as a shop or garage as well as storage.
