Contracting with Superior Buildings
Post-frame (aka pole barn) construction is the ideal solution for garages, horse barns, and many other structures. Pole barns are more affordable than stick-frame buildings, since there is no traditional foundation required. Post-frame structures are also durable, functional, and stylish.
At Superior Buildings, we can bring your vision to life. Our buildings are completely custom, so you can choose a design that fits your unique wants and needs. We can copy an existing building, recreate a set of plans you find on Pinterest, or start from scratch with an idea you dream up. Our project gallery is also full of past projects that you can use as inspiration.
With our Harrisonburg location just an hour away from Charlottesville, Albemarle County is one of our favorite places to work. Since we’re just a short drive away, we can offer complete, turnkey projects. This allows you to avoid the time-consuming task of hiring excavators, electricians, and any other contractors needed for your project.
Amish Roots
Our founder, Nate King, grew up on an Amish dairy farm in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. He started building pole barns in 2001, traveling throughout Pennsylvania and the surrounding states.
Today, Nate runs the Superior Buildings office in Virginia, but he still enjoys farm life. When he’s not working, he’s usually tending to his cows.
