Steel building prices are affected by a wide range of factors, including the steel market, transportation and manufacturing costs, building specifications, and even location. Steel, of course, is a great material for constructing commercial and industrial buildings – it’s strong, durable, and weather-resistant. If you’re considering a steel building for your business, organization, or institution, DR Poulin Construction, based in Fitchburg, MA, is the area’s leading steel building contractor.
We can offer you the best possible steel building prices because our manufactured steel buildings offer a number of benefits and advantages over traditionally-built structures, including:
- Shorter construction time
- Maximum versatility for design and function
- Easy customization
- Lower construction and operational costs
Steel building prices, are tied to some degree to the commodity market which, much like the better-known stock market, determines the prices of steel and its components through the buying and selling of the tradable commodities. As a result, the prices of steel fluctuates with the market’s supply and demand forces, as well as external conditions such as the pandemic and supply chain issues, as well as natural disasters and economic sanctions that can cause sudden price shocks that have a drastic effect on the final cost per square foot of steel.
Fortunately, the cost-efficient manufacturing of steel buildings can help offset temporary jumps in steel building prices. Steel building system components are specially engineered to fit together easily, and because the components are assembled and prepped in a protected, environmentally-controlled facility the cost of assembly is significantly reduced. When metal building system components arrive at the construction site, the skill level required for their assembly is substantially lower, resulting in costs that could be reduced as much as 60 percent.
Rust-resistant, high-performance paint finishes that can provide 30-40 year warranties against chipping, cracking, blistering, and peeling, further demonstrate how pre-engineered steel buildings are built to last. Unlike wooden structures, they won’t rot, warp or require frequent painting, lowering maintenance costs and contributing to a significant ROI, despite any changes in steel building prices.
