Pole Barn Construction
Custom-designed pole barns for residential, agricultural, and commercial use. Our structures feature pressure-treated posts embedded in the ground, 29 Gauge High-Tensile Steel Siding, and a diaphragm design that enhances structural integrity. Each building is engineered to withstand extreme weather conditions while providing long-term durability and low maintenance requirements.
Steel Buildings
Durable steel construction solutions for garages, shops, and commercial spaces. Our steel buildings utilize high-tensile steel siding and roofing with limited lifetime warranties. The post frame system allows for flexible design options while maintaining superior resistance to fire, earthquakes, and wind forces compared to traditional construction methods.
Commercial Buildings
Custom commercial post frame buildings for light industrial, storage, and office applications. Designed to meet specific business needs with features like large clear spans, heavy equipment access, and energy-efficient construction. Our team handles permitting and zoning requirements to ensure compliance with local regulations for commercial developments.
DIY Pole Barn Kits
Pre-engineered pole barn kits for do-it-yourself construction projects. Kits include all necessary components with detailed assembly instructions. Available in various configurations for garages, workshops, and storage buildings, with optional professional guidance available throughout the construction process to ensure proper installation and code compliance.
Post Frame Structures
Versatile post frame construction for multiple applications including horse barns, equipment storage, and residential buildings. Our system uses widely spaced pressure-treated posts for reduced material costs while maintaining structural integrity.

Report
Signed a contract with Perma Built to build us a detached garage on our property. They scheduled a site visit, came back to sign contact and begin submitting permits to the city. City contacted us saying we could not build a detached structure on our lot, and permit declined. We contacted Perma Built and they told us they knew nothing about this and contacted the city, and were told the exact same thing.
We then asked about getting our deposit refunded minus any costs for their time and engineering work. After multiple phone calls to them, and never hearing back we keep getting told someone will look into it. And here we are. Still no calls, responses or any effort of them working to resolve this. Wouldn't waste your time. All sounds great initially, but good luck if things don't workout to build, and you request your deposit back. The contract clearly states deposit to be refunded minus any costs incurred. All I'm asking is for what the contract we signed, says.

Report
We contacted Town and Country Permabilt in Lynnwood to construct a 1300 square foot pole-frame building. From the start the company was very easy to work with. There was delay due to the general malaise of the pandemic but Permabilt was able to move up our start date by three months. In ten days the building was completed to a very high standard of work. It is striking in appearance. This company may have been a little more expensive but the representative designed the building according to our wishes rather than just putting up a' stock' structure. Communications were superb throughout, and even followup was ideal. Highly recomnend!

We really wanted a garage built. However, after a year we've given up on working with them. We were promised quotes multiple times over a 9 month span. We had appointments scheduled that were canceled after the fact. After talking with a manager, we finally received our quote. Now that we want to proceed we are not getting any responses back. Today we decided to go with a different company.
