About Selma, TX
Located along the I-35 corridor northeast of San Antonio, Selma blends established neighborhoods with rapid commercial growth around The Forum at Olympia Parkway and nearby Randolph AFB. Homeowners and small business owners value Selma for its convenience, strong community, and access to regional jobs and amenities in Bexar, Comal, and Guadalupe counties.
Lots here range from in-city residential parcels to edge-of-metro acreage — making Selma ideal for barndominiums, accessory garages, workshops, and low-maintenance steel buildings that add real function and long-term value.
Why Selma Property Owners Need Durable, Custom Buildings
Selma’s growth, weather, and mix of residential + light commercial uses call for buildings that are flexible, efficient, and compliant — without sacrificing style. Here’s how we build for success in Selma:
Engineered for Central Texas Weather
We specify standing-seam roofing, robust wall assemblies, and proper fasteners/flashing to perform through summer heat, downpours, and gusty fronts — with insulation packages that keep interiors comfortable.
Designed for Suburban + Edge-of-Metro Lots
Tight lot? Odd setbacks? We create efficient floor plans and door clearances that fit the site, protect maneuvering space, and keep drive paths clean for daily use.
Built for Live/Work Versatility
Barndos and shops can include home offices, studios, storage bays, and guest/lock-off suites — ideal for remote work, side businesses, or visiting family.
Compliance Without the Headache
Selma projects often involve city permits and, in many neighborhoods, HOA design guidelines. We prepare drawings and specs that satisfy reviews the first time.

What does a barndominium cost in Selma?
Most barndominiums run $150–$200 per sq ft, depending on size, finishes, and site work (access, utilities, grading). After a consultation and a look at your lot, we’ll provide a detailed estimate.
Do I need permits or HOA approvals?
Yes. Expect Selma city permits and, in many neighborhoods, HOA design review. We prepare drawings and material specs to help approvals move quickly.
Can you build on smaller or irregular city lots?
Absolutely. We optimize setbacks, drive paths, door placement, and turning radii — and we can phase projects to minimize disruption.
Post-frame vs. steel — which is better for me?
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.
ll new construction projects in the area must begin by reviewing and applying for the required permits through the City of Selma’s official Building Permits office.
