When you’ve made the decision to build a pole barn, you’re not just adding a structure to your property—you’re investing in something personal. It could be a garage for your growing collection of tools and toys, a warm, well-lit workshop where your ideas finally have room to breathe, or a multi-purpose building that supports your business, your family, or both. Whatever it is, the vision is yours. The next step is turning that vision into something you can actually build—and that starts with a design that’s tailored to you.
At Dutch Builders, we believe great buildings begin long before the first hole is dug or the first post is set. They start with thoughtful planning, good communication, and a design that reflects not only what you need, but how you live, work, and dream. That’s why we offer a completely free, fully custom pole barn draft—no commitments, no obligations, and no generic templates. Just expert guidance, decades of real-world experience, and a design process that makes it easy to move from concept to construction.
If you’ve searched online for pole barn plans, you’ve likely seen plenty of “customizable kits” and downloadable blueprints. While those can be a starting point, they rarely reflect the full scope of your needs—or the unique layout of your property. What’s worse, they often leave you guessing. Will it meet local code? Will it fit your land? Will it support what you plan to store or build inside?
That’s where we’re different. When you reach out to Dutch Builders for a custom design draft, we don’t hand you a premade layout with a few options to check off. We start fresh—with your ideas, your goals, and your property as the foundation. Our design team doesn’t just consider square footage or materials. We look at how the building will sit on your land, how you’ll use it in all seasons, and how it can grow with you over time. Then we shape that information into a draft you can actually build on—something real, useful, and specific.
It’s not about what we want to build. It’s about what you need to build—and how we can make it better.
Our process is built around real conversations—not just checklists. When you request your free custom draft, the first thing we do is listen. We want to understand what’s driving your build. Is it more space for your vehicles? A workshop to launch a business? A legacy structure to pass down through generations? We’ve worked with everyone from first-time builders to seasoned landowners, and we tailor our questions to meet you where you are.
During this initial planning conversation—either over the phone or in person—we’ll talk through the details. How big do you envision the space? What’s going inside? Do you need climate control, loft storage, or oversized doors for equipment or RVs? How much site prep might be needed? Are you looking for a bold, modern exterior or something more traditional that complements the existing look of your property?
From there, we begin developing a draft that reflects everything you’ve shared. This is not an automated rendering—it’s a purpose-built layout designed by someone who understands both local regulations and what it takes to actually build it. You’ll receive a detailed floor plan, insights into structural elements like post spacing, roof pitch, and ventilation, and expert suggestions on features like insulation, lighting, and accessibility.
You’ll also receive a clear breakdown of estimated costs and timelines, so you can make decisions with confidence. If you want to make revisions or explore additional options, we’ll guide you through that, too—no extra charge, no pressure.
Let’s get the big question out of the way: yes, the custom draft is truly free.
We don’t hide the cost in fine print or try to upsell you later. We offer it because we believe the best way to earn someone’s trust is to show them exactly how we work—and to do it well before we ever talk about contracts or construction dates.
When we give you a free draft, we’re giving you more than a design. We’re offering a tool you can use to plan your project thoughtfully and realistically. It helps you visualize the space. It helps you have better conversations with your family, business partners, or township officials. It helps you avoid mistakes and delays. And most importantly, it gives you the peace of mind that comes with knowing your pole barn is being designed by professionals who build with purpose.
Our typical turnaround time is just a few business days. If your project is more complex—say, a large commercial build or something with unique zoning considerations—it may take a bit longer. But we’ll always keep you in the loop. We respect your time, and we treat your project like it matters—because it does.
Designing your own pole barn means making a series of decisions that shape how your building will function—and how it will feel to use every day. With Dutch Builders, you’re not limited to pre-configured options. You’ll have the flexibility to design exactly what you need, down to the smallest details.
Want a 30x50 garage with dual overhead doors and a covered side entry for your boat? We can make that happen. Need a two-story workshop with office space, radiant floor heat, and natural light from clerestory windows? We’ve done that, too. Some clients want simple, budget-conscious builds that just get the job done. Others want the kind of space that makes you pause when you pull into the driveway and say, “Yeah, that’s mine.”
Either way, we help you think through the layout, access points, door and window placement, ceiling height, structural loads, finish materials, storage, and more. If you're not sure what’s possible—or what’s worth the investment—we’ll talk through the pros and cons and guide you to the right choices for your needs and budget.
We don’t just want your building to work. We want it to feel right from the moment you walk in.
You’ve already done the hard part: you’ve decided to build. Now it’s time to get serious about making it happen. Dutch Builders is ready to help you take that next step with clarity, confidence, and craftsmanship.
Our free custom design draft is more than a courtesy—it’s a commitment to getting it right from the very beginning. We’ll guide you through your options, shape your ideas into a working plan, and show you exactly how we’d bring it to life—right here, with hands-on expertise and hometown pride.
So go ahead. Reach out. Share your vision. And let’s design something together that’s not just built to last—but built around you.
