Barndominium Construction Experts

Steel-frame construction built to withstand Florida's weather. Engineered for strength, finished for luxury living.

Barndominium Construction

Overview

Barndominium construction is a specialized discipline that requires deep knowledge of steel-frame engineering, metal building erection, and the unique challenges of converting a commercial-grade metal structure into a comfortable, code-compliant home.

At Plumb Level Construction, we've spent decades perfecting the craft of barndominium construction. We understand the critical details that separate a quality barndo from a problematic one — proper moisture barriers, thermal breaks, condensation management, and Florida wind-load engineering.

Our construction process follows a systematic approach: reinforced concrete slab foundation, pre-engineered steel frame erection, metal panel enclosure, spray foam insulation for the entire envelope, and a complete interior build-out with residential-grade finishes.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size barndominiums do you build?

We build from 1,200 sq ft to over 5,000 sq ft. The beauty of steel-frame construction is nearly unlimited span capability.

Are barndominiums safe in hurricanes?

Yes. Our barndominiums are engineered to meet Florida's strict wind-load requirements, often exceeding code minimums.

What insulation do you use?

We primarily use closed-cell spray foam insulation, which provides superior R-value and acts as a vapor barrier to prevent condensation.

Can I include a workshop or garage bay?

Absolutely. Many of our barndominiums include attached workshop areas, RV bays, or multi-car garages.
