Pole Barn Repairs, Options & Additions – Potlatch Junction

Potlatch Junction sits where US 95 meets State Highway 6 north of Moscow, and many barns and shops in this junction area are working hard as highway facing shops, small farms, or equipment yards. We handle repairs, lean-to additions, lofts or mezzanines, interior build-outs, door and window upgrades, and full insulation + concrete improvements – built for highway wind, Palouse snow, and four season use between Potlatch Junction, Viola, Palouse, and south toward Moscow.

From re-sheeting metal to post and truss fixes, from horse stalls and tack rooms to workshop finishes with power and heat, we upgrade barns on parcels that back up to US 95, service yards near the junction, and rural properties stretching toward the Washington line. If you want more covered space, better storage, or a tighter building envelope, we will design it, frame it, and finish it clean – code-compliant and tailored to your Potlatch Junction site.

Popular Pole Building Additions (More space, more function)

Lean-tos & Overhangs

Open or enclosed lean-to additions for equipment and trailers that need to be staged near US 95, covered parking for service trucks, or outdoor work areas visible from the highway. We match eave height and panel profile so the addition looks professional from the road.

Lofts & Mezzanines

Create lofted storage or a partial second level for parts, inventory, and seasonal gear so the main slab stays open for service bays and loading. Ideal for small businesses and farms based near the junction.

Interior Build-Outs

• Horse barns and stables: stalls, aisle layout, tack rooms, wash bays, rubber matting for nearby rural parcels
• Workshops: insulated walls and ceilings, 120 or 240V power, task lighting, compressor runs for highway facing service shops
• Garage + shop combos: partition walls, fire separation where required, organized storage for tools, tires, and equipment
• Barndominium prep: interior framing, rough ins, envelope upgrades so you can phase in living or office space close to your shop

Door & Window Upgrades

Taller RV, truck, or equipment doors, drive through bays, added man doors, skylights, or extra windows to bring light into deeper bays.

Concrete & Floors

Slabs, thickened edges, footings, interior pads, drains, and aprons – poured for how you use the building, whether that is a junction side business, a small farm shop, or a mixed use barn. Concrete can be bundled with your Potlatch Junction project.

Exterior Finishes

Metal siding and roofing in business friendly and farm friendly colors is our standard. If you want a sharper look for highway traffic, we can add LP SmartSide or fiber cement wainscoting and trim – we skip vinyl.

Comfort & Protection

• Insulation with spray foam, batt, or hybrid systems, proper air sealing, and ventilation so your space is usable through Palouse winters
• Snow guards, gutters, and condensation control to keep interiors dry and comfortable

Use-Case Ideas (Mix & match to fit your property)

• Equipment and storage barns for tractors, trucks, and implements that work both Idaho and Washington ground
• Multi bay garages for pickups, work trucks, and service vehicles
