When properly maintained, pole barns built by Altitude Builders are designed to last 40-60 years or more, with many lasting even longer. Our commitment to using superior materials and construction techniques, combined with engineering specifically for Colorado's climate conditions, ensures exceptional longevity.

The lifespan of your building is significantly influenced by our quality construction practices, including the use of treated lumber for ground contact areas, 29 gauge metal roofing and siding that resists corrosion, and engineered trusses designed for long-term structural integrity.

Several factors contribute to maximizing your pole barn's lifespan, including regular maintenance such as keeping gutters clear and addressing any minor issues promptly, proper site drainage to prevent water accumulation around posts, quality of initial construction which is why our owner-supervised approach makes such a difference, and appropriate use within the building's designed parameters.

Our metal roofing and siding typically come with 40-year paint warranties, while the structural components are built to last even longer. Many of our clients view their pole barn as a multi-generational investment, knowing that with basic maintenance, the building will serve their family or business needs for decades to come. During your consultation, we can discuss specific maintenance recommendations to help ensure your building achieves its maximum lifespan potential.
