NATIONAL BARNDO COMPANY & STEEL BUILDINGS

We want to provide our clients with a concise overview of what goes into pricing a custom barndominium build. Our TURNKEY pricing structure typically ranges from $150 to $350 per square foot. This is an average, and our pricing does not include well and septic due to the unknown factors of those, such as counties that require engineered septic tanks, etc. There are parts of the country where pricing is increased and part of the country where pricing is decreased. It’s essential to note that this range allows for flexibility, as certain features may not be applicable to your specific needs, ultimately reducing the overall cost. The specifics regarding finishes, appliances, and accessories will be thoroughly discussed with your general contractor once the blueprints are completed.

IF YOU ARE SHOPPING FOR PRICES AND YOU SPEAK WITH OTHER BUILDERS, MAKE SURE YOU ASK ABOUT THE FOLLOWING INFO ON PRICING. CHECK WITH THEM TO SEE IF THEIR PRICING OUT EVERYTHING INCLUDED IN OUR TURNKEY PRICING. 

To get a true, accurate estimate, we recommend purchasing custom plans through us. However, we’re able to get very close to a true estimate prior to that process when you’re talking with a build consultant during your initial consultation. They will be able to walk you through pricing as we understand this is a very big deal.

We understand the importance of reliable pricing in your decision-making process. That’s why we go the extra mile to ensure that our pricing is not only competitive but also tailored to your specific needs. Our detailed assessment takes into account all relevant factors, allowing us to provide you with a precise and comprehensive estimate.

Most builders will quote you from the foundation up, leaving out a lot of factors on their pricing, resulting in added surprise costs halfway through your build. We’d rather quote you high and come back with good news, than quote you low and come back with bad news. 

However, not all builders are the same. Some may offer you a low-ball estimate that does not include all the necessary expenses and details. Others may charge you hidden fees or extra costs that were not disclosed upfront. This can lead to frustration, disappointment, and budget overruns.

To avoid these problems, you need to know what your builder should be quoting you on for your barndominium build. You need to make sure that your builder is transparent, honest, and thorough in their estimate. You also need to compare different quotes and options from different builders to find the best value for your money.

Barndominiums are becoming more popular as an alternative to traditional homes. They offer many advantages, such as durability, customization, and affordability. But how much does it cost to build a barndominium? And what factors affect the price of a barndominium?

A barndominium is a type of metal building that combines a living space with a workshop, garage, or barn. Barndominiums can be converted from existing barns or built from scratch. They can have various styles, sizes, and layouts, depending on your preferences and needs.

Barndominiums are ideal for people who want to enjoy the benefits of rural living, such as privacy, space, and nature, without sacrificing comfort and convenience. Barndominiums can also be used as vacation homes, rental properties, or multi-generational housing.

The price of a barndominium can vary depending on several factors, such as:

• The size and complexity of the floor plan
• The quality and quantity of the materials and finishes
• The location and condition of the land
• The availability and cost of labor and contractors
• The permits and regulations required by the local authorities
