FBi Buildings pole barn

The beauty of post-frame construction is its design flexibility to meet your pole barn needs long after it’s completed. In fact, it’s not uncommon to renovate an existing post-frame building for a new purpose.

For example, farmers upgrade their cold storage building into an insulated farm shop. Homeowners transform their basic pole barn garage into a man cave. We’ve even had customers convert their tool shed into a barndominium!

As you can imagine, these renovation projects are complex. You’re altering the original floor plan and intended use, which requires additional building materials and subsequent design loads (i.e., extra weight).

Discover if this renovation project is the right fit for you by downloading our FREE “Adding Pole Barn Interior Finishes” checklist.

When you repair or renovate your existing pole barn with us, you receive the same quality building materials and extensive warranty coverage as our New Construction customers.

Best of all, our dedicated Repair & Renovation Experts have the knowledge, resources and manpower to extend any post-frame building’s useful life or reconfigure it for a new purpose. It doesn’t matter who built the original structure!

My first recommendation in your journey is to start out with a local farming friend or mentor along with joining an organization like Ohio Farm Bureau.

We’re just so thankful for the Farm Bureau and the foundation for helping put this together. And of course, the Boyert family for the vision they had with this grant. It’s jumping us forward 10 years. It’s unbelievable.

The issue of property taxation remains as one of the biggest challenges our members face today. Ensuring agricultural property is valued for its agricultural potential and not development is critical to the continued success of Ohio agriculture.

Giving farmers a voice
Through the Select Partner program, we became educated in farm insurance and weren't just selling policies. It became more and more clear why farmers need an advocate like Ohio Farm Bureau.

So many of the issues that OFBF and its members are advocating for are important to all Ohioans. I look at OFBF as an agricultural watchdog advocating for farmers and rural communities across Ohio.
