Commercial and light-industrial post-frame construction.
Light industrial buildings, warehouses, public-sector projects, and subcontract work for general contractors. The contract structure flexes to fit how the project bills — standard base-plus-additions, or a milestone-billing format for architect or lender-driven projects.
What we build
Light-industrial buildings
Manufacturing space, fabrication shops, equipment-heavy operations.
Warehouses
Multi-bay storage with engineered loading, sized to operations.
Commercial fleet and equipment cover
Roof-only or fully enclosed, sized for trucks, trailers, equipment.
Subcontract work for general contractors
Post-frame envelope work under a GC, with standard subcontractor agreements.
Public-sector projects
Schools, fire halls, county facilities — prevailing-wage capable.
Architect-led private projects
Milestone-billing contract format with Schedule of Values structure for projects with architect or lender involvement.
Contract flexibility
Commercial projects bill differently than private ag or shop work. We carry two contract regimes and pick the one that fits the project.
Standard contract
Base price + itemized additions
For private commercial projects where the customer is buying a complete building from us. Same format as our ag and shop work — clear base, every addition on its own line.
Milestone-billing contract
Schedule of Values format
For architect-led or lender-driven commercial projects with draw schedules. Milestone-by-milestone billing with architect certification, designed to fit how commercial construction financing works.
Who commercial pole buildings are for
- Business owners adding light-industrial or warehouse space
- General contractors needing a post-frame subcontractor
- Public agencies building under prevailing wage
- Commercial developers building speculative or build-to-suit
- Architects with a client who needs post-frame structure
- Property owners building commercial outbuildings on owned land
Common questions about commercial pole buildings
Do you work with general contractors as a subcontractor?
Yes. We carry a master subcontractor agreement and have completed commercial subcontracts under general contractors in Oregon and Washington. Insurance certificates, lien-waiver schedules, and standard subcontractor documentation are part of how we work.
Can you handle prevailing-wage public projects?
Yes. Oregon BOLI prevailing-wage projects are part of the commercial mix — we have completed school-district and other public-sector work under prevailing-wage rate schedules with the required certified payroll reporting.
Do you build to architect-stamped plans?
Yes. Architect-led and lender-driven commercial projects use a milestone-billing contract format with a Schedule of Values structure. That regime fits commercial draw schedules and architect certifications cleanly. Standard post-frame buildings use the simpler base-plus-additions contract.
Can you handle large or complex commercial buildings?
Yes. Large industrial complexes with multiple wings, long clear spans, and glulam or steel supports are squarely in what we build. Tell us the program and we will tell you how we would put it up.
Do you coordinate directly with our lender for milestone billing?
Yes. The Schedule of Values format produces the kind of milestone-by-milestone billing that construction lenders require. We coordinate with your bank, your architect, and your project manager on draws.
How long does a commercial post-frame project take?
Most commercial builds run 1 to 10 weeks of on-site construction, depending on size, finish complexity, and inspection cadence; the largest multi-bay complexes run longer. Engineering and county permit review add lead time before the crew arrives, and that varies by county. Schedule lives in the written contract.
