Expert Pole building construction in Whatcom County, WA

Pole building construction gives Whatcom County property owners a strong, open-span structure without the complexity of traditional framed walls. Sherman General Contracting LLC handles the full build process, from site prep and post setting to framing, roofing, and exterior finish. Pole buildings work well for farm equipment storage, livestock shelters, detached garages, hobby shops, and commercial workspace. Whatcom County's wet Pacific Northwest climate puts real demands on any outdoor structure. Roofs and framing here need to handle consistent rainfall and seasonal snow loads, so proper engineering matters from the start. Our work is grounded in the belief that quality and integrity belong at the center of every project. We serve property owners across Whatcom County and take each build seriously, from the first post in the ground to the final panel on the wall. Call us to talk through what you need.

We loved working with Sam and having him build this wheelchair ramp! He came in under other bids in time frame and cost. Great communicating when he would be on site and when different materials would be available. Respectful of our home and cleaned up really well at the end of the job. Sherman contracting is our new go-to for any contracting job.

Sam came and took a gigantic cottonwood tree down for me at my front driveway. His services were prompt, quality, and affordable. Would recommend to 10/10. Thanks again Sherman General Contracting 🍻

Sherman General Contraction did some significant work on our home. They did a fantastic job and I would highly recommend them. Their lead carpenter was a very skilled craftsman at the highest level.

Look no further. Sam is your guy! We just had a full bathroom remodel done and have nothing but great things to say about Sam and his crew. My husband and I have had one bad contractor experience after another for the last 4 years and Sam restored our faith in the industry. All of them are kind, respectful and skilled at what they do. They did absolutely beautiful work; they paid attention to all of the small details and noticed everything before we did so we didn’t have to point out any touch ups. We had a large amount of tile work and it was executed flawlessly. They finished on time and slightly below the estimate. We couldn’t be happier.

Sam is an excellent and knowledgeable contractor- easy to work with and really knows his stuff!
