About Converse, TX
On San Antonio’s northeast side near Randolph Air Force Base, Converse blends established neighborhoods with ongoing residential and commercial growth. With quick access to Loop 1604, I-35, and FM 78, it’s a strategic location for families, trades, and small businesses. Lots range from in-city parcels with HOAs to larger tracts at the metro’s edge — making Converse a prime spot for barndominiums, accessory garages, workshops, and low-maintenance steel buildings that boost daily utility and long-term value.
Why Converse Property Owners Need Durable, Custom Buildings
Converse’s climate, growth, and mix of residential + light commercial uses call for structures that are efficient, versatile, and compliant — without sacrificing style:
Engineered for Central Texas Weather
We specify standing-seam metal roofing, sealed wall assemblies, proper flashing/fasteners, and right-sized insulation to keep interiors comfortable through summer heat and stormy fronts.
Designed for Suburban & Edge-of-Metro Lots
Tight side yards or irregular setbacks? We plan door placements, turning radii, and driveway paths so vehicles and projects move easily — even on compact lots.
Live/Work Versatility
Barndos and shops can include home offices, studios, storage bays, and guest/lock-off suites — perfect for remote work, hobbies, or visiting family (and compliant where allowed).
Compliance Without the Headache
Converse projects often involve city permitting and, in many neighborhoods, HOA design guidelines. We prepare drawings and specs that satisfy reviews the first time and keep schedules intact.

What does a barndominium cost in Converse?
Most barndominiums run $150–$200 per sq ft, depending on size, finishes, and site work (utilities, grading, access). After a consultation and lot review, we’ll provide a detailed estimate.
Do I need permits or HOA approvals?
Yes. Expect Converse city permits and, in many neighborhoods, HOA design review. We prepare drawings, material specs, and site plans to help approvals move quickly.
Can you build on smaller or irregular city lots?
Absolutely. We optimize setbacks, drive paths, door placement, turning space, and drainage — and can phase work to minimize disruption.
Post-frame vs steel — which should I choose?
Post-frame is versatile and budget-friendly for shops/garages/studios. Steel offers the longest lifespan and strongest framing for tall bays or light-commercial use. We’ll recommend the best match for your goals and site.
How long does construction take?
Most projects complete in 2–6 months after approvals, depending on size, scope, finishes, and weather. You’ll receive a clear timeline before we start.
For all new construction in the area, it is mandatory to consult the latest standards and requirements adopted by the City of Converse Building Division, which enforces the 2024 I-Codes for public safety and welfare.
