An older pole barn is becoming a finished, weather-ready shop with black standing seam roofing, white metal siding, a rebuilt timber-style lean-to and room to grow.
Location
Toledo, Washington
Status
In Progress
Existing Shop
30 by 42 feet
Next Phase
42 by 20-foot RV bay
The transformation
An older pole barn, rebuilt as a finished shop.
The renovation strengthens the building, improves protection from Western Washington weather and gives the exterior a clean, intentional finish. Black standing seam roofing, white vertical metal siding, a contrasting lower wainscot and natural wood details now work together as one design.
Before
The original pole barn
A basic older building with limited overhangs and an aging full-length lean-to.
Renovation in progress
A more complete, useful shop
New exterior finishes, wider overhangs and a rebuilt covered area give the building a much more finished presence.
3D Project Preview
Designed to look like one building.
This visualization shows how the planned RV bay carries the shop’s black standing seam roof, white siding, dark wainscot and wood details into one cohesive building.
What changed
The renovation improves the building from the framing out.
Better protection from the weather
Roof framing improvements, new roof sheathing, two-foot overhangs, finished soffits and carefully finished transitions help protect the shop as a complete exterior system.
A clean, durable exterior
Black standing seam roofing, white metal siding, a contrasting lower wainscot and coordinated trim sharpen the building without making it feel overdesigned.
More useful covered space
The rebuilt 42-by-10-foot lean-to maintains clearance at the shop doors while adding a finished ceiling, wider overhangs and timber-style exterior details.
The next phase
A new RV bay designed to look original.
The planned 42-by-20-foot addition will provide 16-foot walls and a 14-by-14-foot overhead opening for tall, wide covered storage. Matching roofing, siding, wainscot, overhangs, doors and windows will tie the addition to the renovated shop instead of making it look tacked on later.
