Creating Your California Barndominium: 7 Steps To Minimize Time and Costs
-
Building Requirements
Not all building departments are on the same page, so you’ll need to contact your local building department and ask for a written copy of the specific building requirements they need. -
Determining Costs
You can assume $80 to $120 per square foot for materials and labor to determine the cost. We suggest that you begin searching for a lender right away to see if you qualify. We have used several and can make recommendations. When you talk with them, get specifics on how they release the money, whether deposits are required, etc. -
Engineered Plans
Meet with our design specialists to create a rough draft of exterior dimensions and interior designs. Our formal engineered plans currently cost $1.30 per square foot of living space and 60¢ per square foot for garage or shop space.
Engineered plans may take four to six weeks to complete. We include this cost in our deposit, representing about 33% of the total material. -
Finding the Right Contractors
Begin looking for several contractors to complete your building. Pole barn builders may need more expertise to complete the interior finish work, and finish carpenters may not be able to construct a pole barn.
You will also need someone to do the site prep, electrical, and plumbing. Depending on your specific California location, we can refer you to pole barn contractors. -
Permits
Submit the required paperwork, site plan, building plans, and truss engineering to your building department as soon as possible. It typically takes three to six weeks to issue permits. Also note that if changes to the plans are required, there could be minimal additional costs. -
Materials
With final permits in hand, we work with the builder to provide a material list needed to complete your building. Our second deposit covers all the structural material—poles, trusses, sidewall girts, roof purlins, and roof or wall sheeting. Our last deposit is for the wall and roof material, which can be metal, wood, composition, or a combination. -
Building Your Barndominium
The exterior can go up quickly in three to six weeks, which allows you to begin lining up specialty contractors to begin work on the inside. Whether you purchase interior materials from Pacific Pole Buildings or independently, we can provide what you need to complete your building.
