cost of a pole building

Brian806 · Dec 9, 2013

How much would a 40x60x12 or 14 ft high pole building cost me! Looking to put on 16 or 20 ft door and one man door with concrete floor!

Im going to say 18-20 thousand without concrete, that"s the goin prices here in ohio as advertised in farm magazines for enclosed machinery shed. If concreted and insulated/finished shop it could double in price from what I said.

54 x 88 Morton style cost me $45,000 ten years ago. two man doors and two 12 x 12 garage doors. The 6 inch concrete floor was $15,000 more

This year I put up a 30'x48' Cleary building. The building itself was $16,000 and the concrete floor with a 12'x24' slab in front was $6,200.

I didn't touch any of it myself. If you did some work yourself, that would deduct from the price. Also depends on your location. Where I'm located, our local zoning dictated the building be built to the same code as if I'd built it in town. That added a couple thousand to the price.

With grade work, underground electrical line, and odds and ends, I have about $24,000 into it, right now. Still need to insulate it and put in a heating system.

Hope this helps as a ball-park.

Brian : We have all the equipment like man lift, squirt boom fork lift and skid steer with augur to do the job quick. I purchased the material and hired a crew of four. They did a 40 X 80 with 16 ft walls. I had right at 20 thousand WITHOUT the floor. Going to wait to spring to do the floor.

Google poll barn each site will have a sheet to fill out and you can get a quote with in a couple days. A lot of options and will vary a lot.

Just this summer I put up a 40 x 72 x 12 pole barn. It has 2 16 ' doors, one man door and 7 windows on each side. I hired the local Amish to put it up for me and I have about $18000 into it the way it sits, including the gravel used to build it up. I did do all my own backhoe work. I still need to bring in some more stone for the driveways and finish the electric, but when finished I should be under $20000. No concrete.

Make a list of every feature you want, then get bids. The concrete will probably cost as much as the building. Are you going to heat it, wire it, put in a lift.

It adds up real fast.

David G · Dec 9, 2013

Larry, that sounds about right.

Buddy put up 60x120x18 with 40x60 heated shop on end, new 400 amp service for shop and grain operation. It will be about a buck and a quarter.

i just finished my storage building 45' by 60' with 15 foot walls, we did all the work ourselfs. it has two 15 by 20 sliding doors and one entry door on the side and it came in around 18,000.00 it is clear span on the inside with truss set at 4 feet apart.

VADAVE · Dec 10, 2013

Brian it all depends on where and how you get the material and how much you do yourself...and when.
It 1994/5 I built a 138X40X16 pole building with dirt floor for under 17K. Poles were used power poles at no cost except hauling and I hauled myself. Oak beams for the top of the poles were from a local sawmill. Trusses form a truss mill across the road, no hauling cost. The nailers from another sawmill. The steel from a outfit I found in Lancaster Farmer in Pennsylvinia (sp). The major cost items were the trusses and the steel siding.
There's been some inflation since 1994 which will drive costs up.

I have recently priced a hay storage building. Consisting of a 50x88x18 with two 16x88 add ons that would still hold 13ft height. Leaving us a 82 by 88 building Materials are 32,000 plus erection 9-13,000 depending on the equipment we provide to an Amish crew. There are no doors. We already have a 120x 145 cement slab to erect on. Gives us about 1800 bale capacity.

Put up a 60x30x10 with a 30x14 lean-to on the back last spring (in the middle of a May snow storm....). Used tin on the sides, new tin on the roof. We cut some logs off this place, and had them cut into the poles. Myself and a friend (he did 80% of the work) put the thing up in less then a week (had a couple of Amish friends come and help a couple days). 14x10 door with two walk throughs. No concrete. Cost well under $4000. Biggest expense was tin.

if the Menards by you is like here, you can go on their computer and figure in everything you want and it will spit out the cost of the material.

My brother is having the Amish put up a 30x40x16, no floor, electric, windows. Steel roof and sides. One 30 ft. end will be open completely. Simply for equipment storage. $10,000

David G · Dec 10, 2013

Yup, the building is relatively inexpensive. The cost is in all the extras, floor, doors, insulation, wiring, heat, ceilings, plumbing

johndeerefan · Dec 10, 2013

I just had one quoted. It was a 30x40x12 with (2) 10x10 insulated doors, concrete floor and 8' apron along 40' front, (2) windows, and 1 entrance door, 2 tone metal siding and metal roof, insulated walls and ceiling with the white insulation. Best price I got was $18,500. Quotes varied from $18,500-$22,000. Price did not include garage door openers or electrical.

Snow load in your area, and any extra code issues you might have will greatly affect the cost of a building.

The stuff they build down in Texas would pancake in one winter up here in Minnesota, but works fine for them, probably get by a good 1/3 less cost there than here.

Really matters what type of snow and some wind loads you need to design for.

A loaded question.
what type of siding, roof, the concrete will be expensive. Call Cleary or Morton and see what their sales dude says.
