About | AZ Custom Buildings

Our Background

AZ Custom Buildings, LLC began in 2015 when founder Zach Larison started a small handyman service dedicated to helping his local community. What started as a one-man operation quickly grew as Zach’s reputation for quality workmanship and reliability spread. Over time, his passion for construction and commitment to excellence led him to expand beyond small repairs into custom building projects.

As demand grew, so did our vision. We transitioned into post-frame construction, specializing in durable, cost-effective structures for agricultural, residential, and commercial use. Whether it was barns, workshops, or storage buildings, our focus was always on delivering quality craftsmanship and custom solutions tailored to each client's needs.

But we didn’t stop there. Recognizing the rising demand for Barndominiums, we shifted our expertise to create custom post-frame Barndominiums, setting new standards in design, durability, and personalization. Today, AZ Custom Buildings is a leader in Barndominium construction, offering fully customized homes that blend modern comfort with rustic charm.

From our humble beginnings to becoming a trusted name in custom home and building construction, our commitment has remained the same: to deliver high-quality, innovative, and personalized solutions that turn our clients’ visions into reality. Whether you’re dreaming of a custom Barndominium or a functional post-frame structure, AZ Custom Buildings is here to build it—with expertise, integrity, and craftsmanship that stands the test of time.
