The Price Of Metal Buildings

At Maverick Steel Buildings, we understand how important it is to get an accurate quote when it comes time to build your steel structure. In order to provide you with a reliable and precise quote, though, we’ll need certain details about your project such as building size, location, and intended use.

METAL BUILDING KIT PRICES

It is important to understand that in order to provide an accurate quote, Maverick Steel Buildings will need certain detailed information about your project. Different customizations, such as building size of the number of doors and windows will affect the cost of your metal building.

We understand that it can be overwhelming to start a project as big as erecting a steel building. We want to make sure you have the tools and knowledge necessary to build your perfect structure.

With that in mind, we have provided this handy guide detailing how a metal building kit is priced to give you an idea of what to expect.

HOW MUCH DOES A STEEL BUILDING COST?

As stated above, due to the highly customized nature of pre-engineered building systems, it is impossible to provide an accurate estimate of the cost of a steel building without input from the buyer. It is important that you have a clear understanding of what you want from your project and communicate that to a steel structure expert.

This involves obvious information such as the dimensions of your building (including length, width, and height) and the number and size of doors and windows. However, we will also need to confirm certain aspects like the building’s roof pitch, location (for building code requirements), and your insulation needs.

CUSTOM DESIGNED STEEL BUILDING

It is impossible to provide an accurate estimate of the cost of a steel building without input from the buyer.

BUILDING COSTS PER SQUARE FOOT

Building Custom Metal Structures Is Our Specialty

Many steel building companies offer information about the average cost per sq ft of steel buildings. However, when reviewing the available information it becomes apparent that there is no real consensus on this price range.

There are simply too many dynamic factors such as time of year, labor costs, accessories, and global economic conditions to make an accurate overall price estimate per square foot. Having said that, there are certain factors that will affect your final cost per square foot.

DURABLE & DAMAGE RESISTANT STEEL BUILDINGS

LOWER COST PER SQUARE FOOT

  • Buildings over 5,000 square feet (the price per sq ft goes down as sq ft goes up)
  • Buildings that experience little to no snow load, wind speed, or seismic activity
  • Standard steel structures with a simple design (think rectangle)
  • Lower roof pitch (this will depend on your location’s code requirements)
  • Few customizations and accessories

HIGHER COST PER SQUARE FOOT

  • Smaller buildings (less than 5,000 sq ft) are more expensive per sq ft.
  • Buildings in locations with heavy snow loads or high wind speed
  • A complicated design with multiple “buildings” formed into one
  • Insulation requirements for very hot or very cold regions
  • Fully customized with larger or more plentiful accessories

WHAT OTHER FACTORS CONTRIBUTE TO THE OVERALL COST OF A METAL BUILDING?

There are many external components to consider when constructing a steel building on your property. From the type and grade of steel to be used to the accessories needed for installation, it’s important to have an understanding of all of these components before starting your project.

From walk-in and roll-up doors to insulation and color options, you can customize your steel building exactly the way you want it. In this section, we will go over some common circumstances and how they could affect the price of your metal building project.

PRICE OF STEEL

The fluctuating cost of steel will affect the pricing of your steel building to a significant degree. Steel prices vary depending on the season, supply and demand, cost of raw materials, and so on. In the past few years, the steel industry has seen record highs and lows in steel price meaning a quote you receive in March could be drastically different than the one you receive in September.

CUSTOMIZATION OPTIONS

Part of the appeal of pre-engineered steel buildings is the ability to customize them to fit any use or industry. From residential to commercial – your customization options are extensive. Adding a stone facade to your building will, of course, make the price higher than if you were to leave it with the standard metal finish. Adding mezzanines, porches, higher roof pitches, and more will affect the overall price of your project.

BUILDING CODE REQUIREMENTS

Maverick Steel Buildings experts ensure that the building code requirements for the location your building is being shipped to are taken into account. In order to withstand the heavy snow load of the northeast United States, the extensive seismic activity found in California, or the wind speeds that can whip up in Tornado Alley – these local codes must be followed exactly and may affect the overall cost of your metal building.

FUEL PRICES

Maverick Steel Buildings is able to ship your pre-engineered building anywhere within the continental United States by big rig trucks. Obviously, those trucks need gas as fuel prices go up and down, so too will shipping prices shift to match. Fuel prices are heavily influenced by the global economy, seasonality, disruption in crude oil supply or pipelines, as well as supply and demand.

GRADING & CONCRETE

In order to construct your steel building, you will need to ensure that the building site is properly prepared. This often includes having the site professionally surveyed, then graded to level, and finally, the concrete foundation is poured and cured. The cost of these services is dependent on the contractors you choose, the size of the area, and the accessibility of your location.

CONSTRUCTION

You will need to factor in labor costs and contracting fees for the construction and installation of your metal building project. The process of erecting a pre-engineered metal structure is much simpler than stick-built construction. However, it is often still too complex for inexperienced DIYers to attempt on their own. Make sure these costs are factored into your steel building price estimate of the final cost for your project.
