Your Reno Barndominium Builder

Serving Clients in the Truckee Meadows Since 2002

Known as “The Biggest Little City in the World,” Reno blends urban energy with access to some of the most beautiful natural landscapes in the West. Whether you’re building a custom home on acreage outside of town, designing a hybrid live/workspace, or creating a multigenerational residence with shop and garage areas, a barndominium offers unmatched versatility. At DC Builders, we specialize in designing and building custom wood-framed barndominiums that reflect your lifestyle—and perform in Reno’s unique climate.
