Glencoe building questions

General information.  Every project is different, so call us about yours.

Does a barndominium make sense on acreage outside Glencoe?

For many people with a few acres, a barndominium is attractive because living space and a shop can share one steel frame.  How well it works depends on your site and budget, so call and we can talk through it.

Residential metal buildings

Glencoe sits in two counties.  Which permitting office should I call?

The answer depends on which side of the county line your parcel is on.  Check with the city and with the county that covers your address.  We cannot speak to their requirements, but they can tell you what to bring.[2]

FAQ

What size shop do people usually put behind a house?

It varies a great deal with budget and what you store.  Pole barns can be scaled to fit, and we are glad to talk about options by phone.

Can I get an insulated, wired building from one company?

RBC builds turnkey, from the skeleton to an insulated, wired and plumbed building.  Ask about the scope you want when you call.

Services

A city with room to build

Glencoe lies partly in Etowah County and partly in Calhoun County, and it is part of the Gadsden metropolitan area.  The 2020 census counted 5,372 residents, and the city was incorporated in 1939.[2]

The city covers about 17 square miles, which is a lot of ground for its population.  The census lists 57.3 percent of residents as urban and 42.7 percent as rural, a mix that points to both neighborhood lots and larger parcels.[2]

Many properties in a mixed place like this call for different buildings.  A barndominium or a pole barn suits a larger parcel, while a garage or shop suits a neighborhood lot.[2]
