Barn Roof

Rebuilding An Old Barn

This is an old barn that is about to be rebuilt, keeping the original look, as much as possible.  This barn was built on blocks so we will be setting treated posts, in the ground, at all four corners.

We plan to replace all the interior studs with new ones and replace the barn roof with new metal.

The roof will all come off and the rafters inspected and replaced as needed.  The barn will then get a new roof.

The center portion of this barn is structurally sound.  It's the two sides that are hurting.

This side is ready to be cleaned out and the new wall built.  A beam has been placed under the rafters and the front jacked and propped back up into a level position.

A corner post will be set and a new wall framed.  That should make a big improvement on this sorry looking barn.

Notice the blocks in the front left corner.  I still find it hard to belief this barn was built on blocks.  That must have been a time before green board.
