Post-Frame Building Materials in Taos, NM

Taos’ Supplier for High-Country Ranch Buildings, Shops & Post-Frame Structures

Taos is one of New Mexico’s most recognizable communities — an arts capital, a ski destination, and a pueblo community with a history stretching back nearly a thousand years. But beneath the tourism economy, Taos County’s agricultural heritage is alive in the ranching operations of the Taos Plateau, the small farms of the Taos Valley, and the ranching and hay operations reaching into the Moreno Valley and Cimarron Canyon country. Contractors here build for both worlds: the working ranches and horse properties that define the agricultural landscape, and the high-end residential and commercial structures that the arts and tourism economy demands.

At nearly 7,000 feet in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, Taos experiences genuine mountain winters with significant snowpack, strong winds off the high mesas, and UV intensity that is substantially higher than at sea level. Western Building Supply engineers every package for the actual ground snow loads and wind exposures at your Taos County site, with structural specifications that account for the mountain environment — not a desert-floor average that would leave your structure underbuilt for what the high country delivers.

When Taos contractors need materials engineered for nearly 7,000-foot mountain elevation, they call Western.
