Taking Delivery of a Steel Building Before the Proper Permits

Once the building is being fabricated, you’re going to end up paying for it regardless whether you’re legally able to construct it on your property. This is a very important process

Not budgeting appropriately

There is a long list of components that go into a steel building budget, and the building parts and accessories are only one portion of them. Never forget to accommodate for both hard and soft costs when coming up with your total budget. This includes things like:

  • Land costs
  • Permitting fees
  • Architect/engineering fees
  • Traffic survey, land survey and/or environmental impact fees
  • Excavation costs
  • Interior finishing costs

Steel Buildings

Buying from a Company Without an Engineering Department

Metal buildings are the engineered structures. These are engineered to withstand the most extreme forces they will experience due to severe weather — such as wind and snow load.

Not Hiring the Same Company to Do the Whole Job 

When you contact different companies to do different parts of the job, you are asking for trouble. Additionally, they could subcontract out parts of their job to people even less familiar with the overall goal/plan/vision. This plays out often with the location of the anchor bolts. The “concrete guy” says they’re in the right position, but the plans say otherwise. Often a customer is stuck paying someone else to come to fix the location of the anchor bolts. Champion Buildings is a full-service company that handles the engineered plans, ordering/delivering of the pre-fabricated building, foundation, and constructing the building.

Buying the Wrong Type of Building 

“How do you plan to use your building?” It’s common sense, but you need to define your needs before designing the building. Often customers have a purpose in mind, but fail to really work on a layout that can accommodate everything they plan to do. It’s also worth keeping in mind that no matter how good the planning is, the building it always not big enough.

Choosing the wrong building site. 

The long-term activity and functionality of your steel building are largely determined by where it is constructed. If it’s exposed to harsh prevailing winds or western/southern exposure, you may encounter challenges around interior comfort, reasonable annual utility costs or wear-and-tear on exterior parts.

Not Checking the Reputation of the Company 

Testimonials or steel building manufacturer reviews on a website are nice, but we all know that companies are hand-picking those to paint themselves in a favorable light. One step better are the reviews you can find on Google, Facebook, and the like. Most of these reviews are written by real customers, but keep in mind that often companies are encouraging their happiest customers to write a review.
