F.A.Q.s


Q: Do you build using steel?

A: Sometimes, yes.  Roof framing systems in a fully heated commercial warehouse building often require steel purlins and trusses for energy code purposes instead of wood.

Horse riding arenas commonly use steel trusses to span 70' or more in width.

Q: Can you build houses?

A: Pioneer Post Frame will construct a residence shell only (fully enclosed) as long as the owner assumes the general contractor management role or hires a licensed G.C. in the case of a construction loan through a local bank.  

We've completed many custom home design concepts.

Q: Do I need to handle the site prep?

A: You are welcome to, but most customers take advantage of our machines and the full time site prep crew we have available.  Utilities in a public right of way would require another outfit's involvement, but building pads, driveways, and MOST utility trenching we can do.  We also offer in-house compaction tests at a competitive price.

Other fun ideas for your post frame project!


HEATED FLOORS:
Ask your plumber or electrician who they prefer to work with or find out how to lay the pex pipe tubing yourself as a home owner and we will pour the concrete floor over the fully insulated area for super comfy living.
(Mechanical and heating systems installed by others)





STORAGE MEZZANINES:
Galvanized hog wire fencing makes a decent and inexpensive guardrail for utility spaces


INTERIOR CORRUGATED METAL:
Lighter and cheaper than drywall, light gauge steel panels make a clean ceiling finish or wainscot on the inside of a building.  Also makes for easy access to electrical wiring in the framing.
