Barndominium Builders in Fort Lupton, CO

Yes. Fort Lupton is about 35 miles south of our base in Ault, CO, and Weld County is one of the three counties we build in. We build custom barndominiums and shop houses with open floor plans there, and the quote is free.

Usually. When one is needed, we pull it from the Fort Lupton or Weld County building department, depending on which side of the town limits the property is on with engineered plans and build to whatever the permit and inspections require.

Yes, when it is engineered for the site. We size the trusses, purlins, girts and bracing for the design snow and wind loads your county sets, which matters on the open plains and even more in the foothills and around Estes Park, where snow runs heavier and downslope winds hit hard. Metal roofs and siding stand up to hail, and heavier-gauge panels are worth talking through. Footings and the slab are designed for the expansive clay common along the Front Range.

Yes. Since it is a home, a barndominium needs a residential building permit and inspections from Larimer, Weld or Adams County, or from the city if the lot is inside town limits. We prepare the engineered plans and file for the permit. Lots in Larimer County's foothills can also fall in the wildfire hazard area, which has its own construction rules, and a metal roof and siding suit it.

Yes, that is a shop house. The shop end gets overhead doors and a slab and ceiling height sized for what you park or work on, and a separating wall keeps it apart from the living space. We plan both sides together so the doors, heat and floor plan fit how you will use them.

Yes. We can stop at a dried-in shell: slab, frame, metal roof and siding, windows and exterior doors all in place, so the building is closed to the weather. You finish the interior on your own schedule, or we take it all the way to move-in ready. Tell us which way you plan to go at the quote so the design fits.
