Our process,
step by step
Program and ratio
We settle how much of the footprint is living space versus shop, which drives cost more than total size.
Site and utility review
Access, power capacity, and well or septic requirements checked on rural parcels.
Design and permits
Engineered structural package plus finished-space drawings, submitted to the county.
Build and handover
Shell erection, then interior finish, inspections, walkthrough, and warranty.
Typical timeline
Most shop homes run 6 to 9 months from permit to move-in. The shell goes up quickly compared with conventional framing; the finished living quarters drive the schedule.
Shop home and barndominium cost in the Treasure Valley
As of 2026, shop homes in the Treasure Valley plan between $150 and $250 per square foot blended across finished and shop space. A 1,600 square foot living area with an attached 1,200 square foot shop commonly runs $265,000 to $500,000 excluding land and site work.
These are planning ranges, not bids. The ratio of finished space to shop space moves the blended cost more than any other variable, which we settle before design begins.

Why design-build for your shop homes & barndominiums
As a design-build remodeler, we bring design, estimating, permitting, and construction under one contract and one accountable team. That removes the handoffs and finger-pointing that happen when a separate designer and general contractor are involved - and it keeps your shop homes & barndominiums on a single, coordinated schedule.
You get a written scope before construction begins, clear allowances for selections, proactive communication throughout the build, and a workmanship guarantee when the project is complete.
