Our Vision
Why we exist
To put up buildings that outlive the people who ordered them — and to treat every customer the way we'd want our own family treated on their property.
What every crew is held to
These are not posters in a break room. They are the things a foreman can be corrected on, and the things we hire and fire against.
Where this is going
We publish this because a customer deciding on a sixty-thousand-dollar building deserves to know whether the company will still be here to stand behind it.
Ten years
The builder people name without thinking
By 2036, when somebody in northeastern Oklahoma says the words 'I need a shop built,' the next sentence is 'call Yoder.' Six crews, a permanent shop and yard, and a name that carries to the next generation.
What doesn’t change, whatever we grow into
Growth is worth nothing if the buildings get worse. These are the standards every crew works to today, and the ones we intend to be held to in 2036 — every one of them is something you can walk out and check on your own building.
26-gauge steel, or we don't quote it
We don't stock 29-gauge, so there is no cheaper version of your building to be talked into. Every panel is 26-gauge CentralGuard® Ultra over a Galvalume® substrate, with a lifetime paint warranty behind it.
Wood above grade, as standard
Our standard is laminated columns on Perma-Column brackets anchored in concrete, which keeps the wood out of the soil. Rot at the post line is the most common reason an old pole barn comes down. Where a customer chooses treated 6×6 posts in the ground to save money, the proposal says so plainly, and we set them 48 inches deep and collared in concrete.
One crew, from dirt to doors
The same crew stays on your job until it is finished. We don't pull people off to chase another start date, and there is no subcontractor to point at when something is wrong. The crew that built it is named on its page in our catalog.
Hold us to it.
If a crew of ours ever falls short of what is on this page, call 918-864-3002 and ask for the owner. That is not a form letter — it is the actual escalation path.
