Smart Solutions for Real-World Horse Owners
Let’s be honest — we all dream of having the perfect setup. Whether it’s the nicest truck, the latest tools, or a top-of-the-line horse facility, we want to enjoy our passions to the fullest. But sometimes, the smartest projects aren’t about going all-out — they’re about working smarter within your budget.
That’s exactly what this horse barn addition in Elma, WA was all about. Our customer came to us with an existing barn, stall packages, and doors already on-site. What she needed was an efficient, practical way to expand her current space by 36 feet, reconfigure the layout, and make the barn work better for her day-to-day routine — without stretching her budget.
At Zepp Construction, we specialize in that kind of balance: craftsmanship that delivers quality and function, while keeping projects affordable and realistic for local homeowners.
Building on What’s Already Great
Instead of starting from scratch, we helped the homeowner build upon her existing structure. By designing a custom addition that tied directly into the original barn, we extended the building’s footprint and reworked the layout to fit her needs.
This approach not only saved on materials and labor — it also allowed her to reuse existing stall components and doors, minimizing waste and maximizing value.
Our team handled the new foundation, framing, trusses, and roofing with precision to ensure the new section blended seamlessly with the old, creating one cohesive structure that looks like it was always meant to be there.
Practical Design Meets Real Function
This wasn’t about luxury — it was about longevity, usability, and smart design.
We built the addition with quality pressure-treated posts, engineered trusses, and durable metal roofing and siding to match the existing barn. Every beam and fastener was chosen with purpose — built to withstand the Pacific Northwest weather while giving the customer reliable protection for her horses and equipment.
The result? A space that’s:
- Spacious and well-ventilated
- Easy to clean and maintain
- Perfectly suited for daily horse care and feeding
- Designed to grow with the customer’s future needs
It’s proof that you don’t need to overspend to achieve something beautiful, functional, and durable.
Built with Care, Precision, and Pride
From start to finish, our crew approached this project with the same level of craftsmanship and professionalism that we bring to every Zepp Construction build.
We handled:
- Site prep and ground grading
- Structural tie-in to the existing barn
- Post and truss installation
- Framing adjustments to align perfectly with existing rooflines
- Efficient construction that minimized downtime for the client’s animals
Every step was executed safely and efficiently — because at Zepp Construction, we believe the details make the difference.
