Good to know before you order: delivery is a flat fee, shown on your quote. Buildings arrive on a large truck, so your site needs room for the truck and a clear drop-off point. Unloading isn't on you: we'll coordinate it with you when we schedule delivery. Details in the FAQ.

FAQ
Common questions
Who pays for shipping?
Delivery is a flat fee, and it's on your quote, so you see the full delivered cost before you order.
What do I need on site for delivery?
Your building arrives on a large truck. Plan for room for the truck and a firm, clear path to the drop-off point. Unloading isn't on you: we'll coordinate it with you when we schedule delivery, and go over the details with your quote.
Where do you deliver?
Anywhere in the continental U.S. Contractors ordering roofing and siding steel: ask about delivery to your area when you request a quote.
Do I need to weld anything?
No. All of our steel is cold-formed, pre-drilled, and bolts or screws together.
Whose steel do you sell?
We sell steel from two suppliers: Metal Sales Manufacturing and Dakota Steel & Trim. Tell us which you prefer, or ask and we'll help you compare. Either way, it's cold-formed steel.
Can I buy just roofing or siding steel?
Yes. Most of our work is complete buildings and hangars, but if you just need a new roof or new siding, we sell the steel separately. Send your measurements or takeoff with your quote request.
Will it pass my local building permit?
Every building comes with blueprints and calculations stamped by our structural engineers, including the foundation slab and pier specs, for getting any needed permit or ordinance approval. Your local building department makes the final call, so check its requirements early.
Can I put it up myself?
Yes. Our buildings are designed for do-it-yourself homeowners as well as contractors. You get detailed assembly manuals.
Do you install buildings?
We supply the building. You or your contractor put it up.
Can I choose colors and styles?
Yes. Pick your colors and your roof and siding styles, and we'll design around your doors, windows and size.
How fast will I get a quote?
As soon as we have your details. Uploading plans or a takeoff speeds it up.
How long until it's delivered?
It depends on the design, colors and season. Your quote includes an expected delivery window.
