Metal Buildings For Sale

What is the total cost of a metal building project?

Our internet specials are real buildings that are priced as complete metal building kits in an effort to provide a accurate estimate of building/materials cost. However, it's important to keep in mind that the cost of materials is only a portion of the total project cost. In fact, for many projects, the cost of the metal building itself, is the smallest cost associated with the project.

What kind of foundation is required for a metal building?

Commercial-grade, red-iron, steel buildings require large piers to be poured under each of the columns of the building. The size of the piers and other specifics regarding the foundation are determined by a licensed structural engineer only after studying the building engineering, local codes, and other factors.
 
While foundation plans vary from project to project, we have posted a sample set of foundation plans to help provide you with an idea of their detail, complexity, and importance.

Do permits have to be pulled for a metal building?

Only the local building department can answer this question and provide information regarding permitting requirements, any restrictions on building with pre-engineered metal buildings, as well as the site-specific loads/codes metal garages will have to be engineered to meet.
 
It's also a good idea to check with any HOA or other governing bodies regarding any restrictions with respect to erecting pre-engineered metal buildings on your property.
