Barns and barndominiums in Thornton

Thornton is an Adams County city on I-25 north of Denver, reaching up to the Weld County line. Thornton is about 47 miles south of our base in Ault, CO, and Adams County is one of the three counties we build in.

We put up barns, barndominiums, shops and garages across Larimer, Weld & Adams counties, from the farm country around Ault to the foothills and the north Denver metro. In Thornton that usually means shop buildings, detached garages and pole barns, along with metal shops, garages and metal buildings.

Closer in, lots are tighter and city setbacks, height limits and HOA rules come into play; on the edges and out in the county there's still room for shops, RV garages, barns and barndominiums on acreage. The quote is free: tell us the size, what the building is for and where the property is.

Building around Thornton

We build all over Thornton and Adams County, from around Briar Ridge Park and Lake Village Park.

Northern Colorado asks a lot of a building: spring hail, strong winds off the foothills and across the plains, heavy wet snow, swelling clay soil along the Front Range, and cold winters followed by hot, dry summers. So every building starts with engineered plans for the site's snow and wind loads, footings designed for the soil and set below the frost line, a pad that drains, and insulation, vapor control and ventilation planned in from day one.

Not in Thornton? We also build in Northglenn, Federal Heights, Todd Creek and Derby and every other town in Larimer, Weld and Adams counties.

Do I need a permit for a barn or barndominium in Thornton?

Almost always for a barndominium or any building people live or work in, and usually for shops and garages: the permit and inspections come from the Thornton or Adams County building department, depending on which side of the town limits the property is on. Some agricultural buildings on qualifying farm or ranch land can be exempt from a building permit, but setbacks, zoning and engineering still apply. We handle the engineered plans, the permit and the inspections.
