Farm Types

Buildings for equipment storage

These massive structures are ideal for storing your farm essentials, such as tractors, combines, and seeders. What you get is clear, unobstructed interiors and tall overhead doors that are perfect for moving large farm vehicles in and out, while also protecting them from tough weather.

Livestock barns

These structures are constructed with an eye on strength, ventilation, and comfort. Your average post frame barn can be used to shelter cattle, horses, sheep, or even mixed herds. Some of the most common options include insulated walls, temperature control systems, and interiors that are easy to wash and maintain.

Hay and feed storage buildings

Choose the perfect post frame building to make sure that your feed and hay stay dry and well-aired. We put up purpose-built storage facilities to fit every need. Engineered to stand up to moisture and stop spoilage, we can help you to efficiently keep your feed during Alberta’s tough weather.

Workshops and store-everything sheds

Most farms need a good, dedicated workshop for storing various items. They are ideal for maintenance, fabrication, or storage of smaller tools and vehicles. Workshops are ideal multi-purpose spaces built to support year-round productivity.

Custom agricultural buildings

For farm shed operations with diverse needs, we can design and build custom post frame buildings. You might require a calving barn, a grain storage barn, or even a multi-purpose building that combines workspace with animal housing. We’ve got you covered.

Farm Building Construction Services

Farm building construction

We take care of every part of your building process, which includes designs, permits, and everything from installing concrete pads to framing and finishing. We build post frame buildings that are efficient, long-lasting, and compliant with all code across Alberta's different farming areas.

Farm building renovation

Why not spruce up a pre-built building with changes that improve insulation, give it more ballast with metal roofing, or enhance airflow? Whether you are making an old barn brand new again or building upon an existing storage shed, our job is to upgrade your building so that your farm meets high standards.

Farm building enhancements

Need more space? Augment your post frame farm building with an extra bay, a new lean-to, or even an additional wing. Our experienced team ensures that your old building is integrated with the latest technology, providing you with a functional space that minimizes disruptions to your existing operations.

Farm building packages

Our comprehensive packages make building your post frame farm structure easy. Each package contains a strong concrete slab, durable framing, roof trusses, dependable siding, and electrical work. We are ready to install at short notice to give you long-term performance.

Specialized upgrades

From extra-strong concrete for heavy machines to specialized LED lighting, we can fit your post frame building with whatever you need. Some common additions include new ventilation systems, upgraded energy-efficient insulation, and special flooring for convenience and durability.

Ferm SPECS

Each post frame structure starts with a solid base. As with all post frame builders in Alberta, we deploy a 32 MPa reinforced concrete slab with specialized rebar grid and a helpful vapor barrier. This ensures that the building lasts for an extended period, even under heavy agricultural machinery. The specialized slab does not crack and is resilient against Frost and changing temperatures common to Alberta.

Our post frame buildings make the most of specialized wood columns and laminated posts. We space them to achieve the ideal load-bearing capacity. Our experience in this area of design ensures that we can provide you with a wide-open interior without the hassle of endless supporting walls. This gives farmers like you a chance to store bigger vehicles without worry.

Our specialized roof trusses come standard in every post frame farm shed in Alberta. We make them durable against heavy snow and strong winds coming to the area. They provide durability and a long-lasting finish. Our most common roof options include ridge vents or even skylights for natural light and continued airflow, particularly useful in high-humidity livestock barns.

Exterior walls are built with powerful OSB or plywood sheathing and coated in Tyvek or Typar to protect your investment against wet and wind. This efficient barrier keeps the cold and heat outside, ensuring the interior remains comfortable for humans and livestock throughout the year.

Our roofing comes with laminated asphalt shingles, although many of our farming customers opt for metal roofing because it is easier to maintain and lasts longer. Metal panels are known to shed snow more efficiently and at the same time stand up to tough farm conditions, making them the perfect selection for barns and storage units.

We install overhead doors that are insulated and can handle large equipment coming in and out every day. We also fit durable man doors. Some customers insist on additional windows, improved light and ventilation, as well as air quality.

Our post frame structures come standard with a subpanel, electrical outlets, and LED lighting. If you have a special request, we are happy to add 240-volt outlets for high-demand machinery and even EV charging stations.

You can create bespoke Interiors with a combination of your own insulation designs, ventilation systems, and even finishes that are easy to clean. Some customers request extras such as partition walls, mezzanine flooring, radiant heaters, and extra add-ons to maximize efficiency and usability.

Other finishes include decorated metal siding and composite trims, providing many post frame farm buildings with the durability they need, as well as an aesthetic that fits well with the nearby properties. You can select from a range of colors, profiles, and textures for a professional finish.
