Pole Barns & Post-Frame Buildings in McEwen, TN
PAC Building Pro builds custom pole barns and post-frame buildings right on your property in McEwen and throughout Humphreys County. We’re a family-run contractor based in Waverly, just a short drive from McEwen, and we bring decades of experience building for Middle Tennessee families, farmers, and business owners.
What We Build for McEwen
Our main focus is custom post-frame (pole barn) buildings constructed on your property. These are built to your specs — size, layout, doors, insulation, and more — and designed for the wind and snow loads here in Middle Tennessee. We also build custom garages and shops on-site.
In addition to custom construction, we deliver portable buildings, steel carports, and prefab metal garages within our service area. Those products are available with rent-to-own and no-credit-check options.
Common pole barn sizes we build in McEwen include:
- 30×40 (1,200 sq ft) — small equipment storage, 3–4 vehicles, workshop
- 40×60 (2,400 sq ft) — hay and feed storage, 6–8 vehicles, livestock shelter, shop space
- 50×80 or 60×80 (4,000–4,800 sq ft) — commercial hay operations, large equipment barns, riding arenas
Whatever the use — storage, livestock, equipment, shop, or hobby space — we can customize the building to fit.
Why Post-Frame Works Well in Humphreys County
Post-frame construction uses treated laminated columns embedded in the ground, with roof trusses and metal siding designed to handle our local conditions. The ground snow load here is 10 psf, and the design wind speed is 115 mph — both manageable for a well-built post-frame structure.
Post-frame buildings go up faster than conventional stud-frame, and they offer wide-open interior space without load-bearing walls. You can add concrete floors, insulation, electrical, doors, and interior finishes based on your needs and budget.

Permits and zoning in Humphreys County
Permit rules in Humphreys County come down to exactly where your building goes:
- Out in the county (unincorporated Humphreys County, outside any city limits): no building permit is required for your pole barn.
- Inside city limits (incorporated cities like Waverly, New Johnsonville, and McEwen): a building permit is required through the city.
- In the county but close to a city: you may also need to purchase a zoning permit, so it’s worth a quick call to check before you build.
Engineered or PE-stamped plans aren’t always required in Humphreys County either — that depends on the local codes office — and PAC can provide stamped plans on request when a jurisdiction requires them (added cost and lead time). Every PAC build includes drawings engineered for Middle Tennessee’s snow and wind loads, and the permit itself is the property owner’s responsibility. We’re glad to help you sort out what applies to your exact site.
How to Get Started
We start with a conversation about what you need — size, use, budget, and timeline. From there, we’ll work up a quote, help you understand your local permit requirements, and walk you through the process from design to completion.
Custom pole barns and on-site construction are available with financing or cash payment. Delivered products like portable buildings and carports have rent-to-own and no-credit-check options available.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a permit for a pole barn in Humphreys County?
It depends on where you build. In unincorporated Humphreys County, outside any city limits, no building permit is required. Inside city limits — like Waverly, New Johnsonville, or McEwen — you do need a building permit from the city. And if your property is in the county but close to city limits, you may need to purchase a zoning permit. A quick call to the county or city office confirms it, and we’re happy to help.
How far will PAC travel to build in McEwen?
We’re based in Waverly, and McEwen is well within our service area. We build custom pole barns and post-frame buildings throughout Humphreys County and the surrounding region, and we deliver portable buildings and carports throughout our service area.
Can I finance a pole barn?
Yes. We offer financing for custom pole barns and on-site construction projects. Rent-to-own and no-credit-check options are available only for delivered products like portable buildings, carports, and prefab metal garages.
Do I need engineer-stamped plans for a pole barn in McEwen?
Not always. Whether you need PE-stamped plans depends on your local codes office and whether your site is inside city limits. Many rural areas in Humphreys County don’t require stamped plans. PAC provides building drawings engineered for local wind and snow loads, and we can arrange PE-stamped plans if your jurisdiction requires them.
