VWC Construction is a trusted pole barn and garage builder serving Westcliffe and Custer County, Colorado. We design and build custom pole barns, detached garages, shop buildings, RV storage, livestock shelters, and barndominium shells for rural and high-elevation properties.

Building in Custer County requires careful planning for snow loads, wind exposure, and mountain weather — and every structure we build is engineered with those conditions in mind.

Building in Westcliffe & Custer County

Properties in Westcliffe and throughout Custer County are often located at higher elevations, which brings unique considerations such as heavier snow loads, increased wind exposure, and colder temperatures.

Our team is experienced in designing buildings that meet county requirements while performing reliably year after year. Most projects in this area are completed outside town limits, and we assist with county permitting and coordination from start to finish.
