How much does it cost to build a barndominium in the Wichita, KS area?
Barndominium pricing varies based on size, finishes, and land conditions, but most homes in the Wichita and South Central Kansas area fall within a wide range. We provide detailed estimates after a site visit and a conversation about your layout, materials, and design goals.
How long does it take to build a pole barn or barndominium?
Most pole barns in the Wichita region can be completed in about one month, depending on weather and project size. Barndominiums take longer because of interior finishes, but our streamlined process helps keep your project moving quickly and smoothly.
Do you handle building permits and inspections in Kansas?
Yes. We take care of all required permits, engineering, and inspections for Wichita, Sedgwick County, and surrounding communities. Everything we build meets or exceeds local Kansas building codes.
Can I customize the floor plan of my barndominium?
Absolutely. One of the biggest advantages of post-frame construction is the ability to create open floor plans with no interior load-bearing walls. You can design your layout exactly the way you want it.
What makes post-frame construction stronger than traditional stick framing?
Our post-frame buildings use engineered exterior wall support, allowing for wider spans, fewer limitations, and greater long-term durability. We also use premium materials like steel-reinforced Perma-Columns, meaning no wood ever touches the ground in your Wichita-area build.
Do you build more than just homes?
Yes! We build shops, garages, commercial buildings, storage units, airplane hangars, hobby houses, and more throughout Wichita and nearby cities like Derby, Andover, Maize, and Goddard. If you can dream it, we can build it.
Can a barndominium be financed like a traditional home in Kansas?
Many lenders in Kansas now finance barndominiums similar to conventional homes. We can guide you toward lenders familiar with barndominium construction and help you prepare the documents they typically require.
Are pole barns energy-efficient in Kansas weather?
Yes. With proper insulation, window placement, and ventilation, pole barns and barndominiums hold up extremely well in Kansas heat, winter cold, and strong winds. We’ll help you choose the right materials for your property and climate.
Do you help with floor plan design or should I bring my own?
We can do both. Many customers start with one of our floor plan ideas and customize it. Others bring drawings, sketches, or full architectural plans. Either way, we’ll help you refine the design and make sure it works with post-frame construction.
How far outside Wichita do you build?
We serve all of Wichita and the surrounding 50-mile radius, including Derby, Andover, Maize, Goddard, Augusta, Park City, Bel Aire, El Dorado, and more. We also build throughout Kansas and parts of Oklahoma, Missouri, Colorado, and Nebraska.
What’s the difference between a pole barn and a metal building home?
A pole barn (post-frame structure) uses large exterior posts embedded into or attached to reinforced concrete columns, creating a strong and flexible shell. A barndominium is simply a home built inside that shell. Post-frame construction offers great design freedom, quick build times, and exceptional strength.

How durable are your pole barns in Kansas weather conditions?
Our pole barns are engineered for Kansas wind, hail, and temperature changes. With reinforced steel columns, premium roofing, and no wood in the ground, our buildings stand strong through every season.
Can you build a barndominium on my existing land near Wichita?
Yes. Whether your land is in Wichita, Derby, Andover, Valley Center, or anywhere within a 50-mile radius, we can evaluate your property and help design a custom home or shop that fits your layout, utilities, and county requirements.
What kinds of interiors can a barndominium have?
Anything you’d expect in a traditional home—modern kitchens, hardwood floors, custom tile showers, lofts, vaulted ceilings, large living areas, and more. Post-frame construction gives you the freedom to design the interior however you want.
Are your buildings good for commercial use in Wichita?
Absolutely. We build commercial shops, office spaces, storage facilities, retail buildings, warehouses, hangars, and agricultural structures throughout Wichita and South Central Kansas. Our post-frame system is strong enough for almost any commercial need.
Can I add a garage, shop, or attached workspace to my barndominium?
Yes. Many of our Wichita-area clients combine their home with a garage, workshop, hobby area, or even a business space. Post-frame construction makes it easy to integrate multiple functions into one building.
Do you build insulated pole barns for year-round use?
Yes. We offer insulation options, HVAC-ready designs, and energy-efficient building materials so your pole barn or barndominium stays comfortable in both Kansas winters and summers.
What makes A Better Barn Company different from other barndominium builders in Kansas?
We focus on long-lasting construction methods using steel-reinforced columns, premium materials, and engineered designs. With open-floor flexibility, fast build times, and true generational durability, we deliver barndominiums and pole barns built better from the foundation up.
How far outside Wichita do you build?
We serve all of Wichita and the surrounding 50-mile radius, including Derby, Andover, Maize, Goddard, Augusta, Park City, Bel Aire, El Dorado, and more. We also build throughout Kansas and parts of Oklahoma, Missouri, Colorado, and Nebraska.
