BARNDOMINIUMS & METAL BUILDINGS

Custom barndominiums, steel building erection, and concrete foundations — built from the slab up by one accountable team.

Epoxy Flooring Installation

More New Mexico property owners are choosing steel. Barndominiums give you wide-open floor plans with no interior load-bearing walls, a shell that stands up to high-desert sun and wind, and a build timeline measured in months instead of years. Metal buildings give you a shop, garage, or warehouse that goes up fast and lasts decades. Whatever you're building, it's only as good as the foundation under it and the crew that raises it — and that's exactly what we do right.

Rio Grande Building and Storage is a locally owned, licensed New Mexico general contractor (GB98), bonded and insured. We handle the whole job under one roof: engineered concrete foundations, precise steel building erection, and complete interior finish-out. That means one team from your first conversation to your final walkthrough — no juggling separate contractors, no gaps in who's responsible for what.

`

We build across Albuquerque, Rio Rancho, the North Valley, South Valley, Los Lunas, Corrales, Bosque Farms, Edgewood, the East Mountains, and surrounding areas. On custom barndominium builds, we offer 3D project renderings before construction begins, so you see and approve your home before a single beam goes up. Call us for a free estimate and let's get started.

What We Offer:

  • Custom Barndominiums — Fully custom metal-frame and post-frame homes, from compact single-story layouts to large shop-with-living-quarters builds, designed around your lifestyle, lot, and budget.

  • Steel Building Erection — Precise erection of pre-engineered and red iron steel buildings — squared, plumbed, anchored, and fastened to manufacturer and code standards.

  • Concrete Foundation Pouring — Engineered slab, monolithic, pier, and footer foundations with proper rebar, vapor barrier, and anchor bolt placement to carry load-bearing walls and steel columns.

  • Pole Barns & Shops — Complete pole barn, post-frame, garage, and workshop builds for agricultural, storage, and commercial use.

  • Barndominium Kit Assembly & Finish-Out — Bring us your building kit and we'll handle site prep, foundation, erection, and the full interior build — flooring, insulation, drywall, cabinetry, and fixtures.

  • Site Prep & Grading — Excavation, leveling, and pad preparation for a stable, code-compliant base.

  • 3D Project Renderings — Visual previews of your build before construction begins.

  • Permit Acquisition & Code Compliance — We pull all required permits and meet New Mexico building standards on every phase.

  • Free Estimates & Flexible Financing — Itemized, no-cost estimates with financing available on larger projects.

Why Choose Rio Grande Building and Storage

  • The Whole Build Under One Roof — Foundation, erection, and interior finish handled by one team. No coordinating between separate crews, no finger-pointing when the slab and the steel don't line up.

  • 30+ Years of Combined Experience — Heavon and Dave have poured, erected, and finished across the Albuquerque metro and rural New Mexico. That experience shows up in a slab that's dead-level and a building that's dead-square.

  • Built for the New Mexico Climate — Steel-strong shells, reflective roofing, and high-performance insulation designed for high-desert heat, wind, and temperature swings — keeping utility bills low year-round.

  • 3D Renderings Before You Commit — See exactly what your barndominium will look like before the first beam is set. Most builders don't offer that.

  • Local, Licensed & Accountable — Licensed NM general contractor, bonded and insured. We're not a franchise or a traveling crew. We live here, and our reputation is tied to every pour, every raise, and every finished home.

  • Transparent Pricing From the Start — Your estimate covers site prep, materials, labor, and timeline in plain language. If something changes mid-project, we talk it through before it affects your budget — not after.
