Had a 60' tree go down and take out about a third of my pole barn. Five of the trusses are broken and the roof and end tin bent up, but no damage to tractors inside. Even though I built the building 30 years ago, it held up pretty well considering the tree guys estimated the weight of the tree trunk alone to be 5000#. Now comes the hard part, finding someone to fix it. I've had two contractors look at it and both say its not worth fixing. Both tried to sell me on a new, bigger building. I got a little insurance money but not near enough to build new, and I really hate borrowing money. It seems to me one could simply push the roof back up and fix the trusses with some 2 bys and plywood, maybe replace the worst sheets and add a few extra screws here and there. I have no neighbors to please with how it looks and so long as it keeps the snow and most of the rain off the tractors I'm satisfied. So I guess I'll just fix it myself. Anyone here have any experience with repairing pole barn trusses?
