Shell Lake, Wisconsin

Barns and barndominiums in Shell Lake

Shell Lake is about 98 miles northeast of our base in Cannon Falls, MN, inside the 100-mile area we build in.

Minnesota Barn Builders is Olson Built and Excavating, a licensed pole barn and barndominium builder in Cannon Falls, MN, about 40 miles southeast of the Twin Cities. In Shell Lake that usually means pole barns, barndominiums and post frame buildings, along with garages, metal buildings, commercial pole buildings and site work.

In lake and timber country a lot of the work is garages, boat and RV storage and shops on wooded lots, where clearing, access and setbacks from the water come first. The quote is free: tell us the size, what the building is for and where the property is.

Building around Shell Lake

We build all over Shell Lake and Washburn County, from around Memorial Park, Shell Lake Municipal Airport and Heart Lake.

Winters here are hard on buildings: frost that heaves anything set too shallow, snow that piles up on roofs and slides onto doors, and condensation that forms under bare steel when the weather swings. So posts and footings go below the frost line, trusses are engineered for the snow load where the building sits, and insulation and condensation control are planned in from the start.

Not in Shell Lake? We also build in Haugen, Cumberland, Rice Lake and Almena and every other town within 100 miles of Cannon Falls.

Do I need a permit for a pole barn or barndominium in Shell Lake?

Almost always for a barndominium or any building people live or work in, and usually for garages and shops: zoning and permits come from the city of Shell Lake inside city limits, or the town and county outside them. Some farm buildings on agricultural land can be exempt from the building permit, but setbacks and shoreland rules still apply. We handle the drawings, the permit and the inspections.
