What people build around Texarkana
Cattle, timber and row crops in the county, and shops and garages around town.
Equipment & hay
Under sixty feet, tubular steel. Past eighty, red iron.
Shops & garages
Insulated or not, tubular is usually the answer unfinished.
Barndominiums
Steel truss. Drywall attaches to the frame, so there’s no second wall to build.
Commercial
Cold-formed for permitted work with a finished eave.

Which side of the line are you on?
Texarkana is two cities in two states, and the address decides whose rules apply.
Texarkana, Arkansas
- Permits inside its own limits under the Arkansas state code
- We confirm setbacks and size limits before drawings are produced
Texarkana, Texas
- A separate city with its own permitting
- Texas rules apply, so we confirm them separately
Rural Miller County
- Like most of Arkansas, usually no county building permit
- Floodplain permits still apply near the Red and Sulphur rivers
A Texarkana mailing address doesn’t tell you which state you’re building in. Give Ryan the property address and he’ll confirm whose rules apply before you settle on a design.
