Lookin to build a new shop/storage shed for my tractor, boat, 4 wheeler, and other toys. Who would do a good job in the Grenada area? Any body have any experience with any builders? I am sure some of yall have a pet builder on speed dial! Lookin for something like this, with two overhead doors, maybe 30x40 with a lean-to for fish fries/shrimp boils/chitlin cooks......Attachment 238399
Gatlin Steel Building in Grenada, 662-809-2003 is Gerald's cell number.
Get in touch with Cockrumcrappie crappie on here. He is a manager in the steel building business up here in Olive Branch. Sure he can help you out. I will PM you his number.
Reeds Metal Buildings did mine. The main office is in Brookhaven but they have several offices around the state and work all over MS. I contacted them, told them what I wanted and my budget. A couple days later I had my plans. Originally we didn't think we could get a 30' over hang without support post, but their engineers came thru with a design that included extra pearling in the roof. They also provided a crew to install the building, very pleasant folks to work with. My sales rep and the installer went out of their way to make sure I was satisfied. My building is 30x40 with an additional 30' over hang on the back side. http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...48a6c3805c.jpghttp://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...414c6c1ebf.jpghttp://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...7d8152e018.jpghttp://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...139d73a56e.jpg I have 3 suggestions. 1. Get one 20' door in the front instead of two smaller ones. No pesky partition in between doors 2. Get a small 8' golf cart door leading out to the over hang. 3. Go ahead and get 8' high wall panels on the inside. It makes it look great and only added $500.00 to the total cost.
By the way, love me some chittlin's and need an invite to the next cooking so I can inspect the building.
Reeds Metal did my storage building for boat and camper http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...ba773bdb07.jpg

Those are real nice, wishin I could but beyond my ability. Y'all got it going.
Can I get that number also cray? I'm looking to build a metal building here in Desoto county in the next month or two. Trying to close the deal on some land at the moment, and another estimate on the building wouldn't hurt.Quote:

A good rule to use as a rough guide on I-beam construction is $15-$20 per square foot. It varies due to roof pitch and extras such as how many doors and windows

Thanks Rees
Yes it does. Considering no etraordinary prep work.Quote:

Big enough to store small tractor, boat or two, 4 wheeler or two, maybe pontoon boat when I hit geezer status. Pole barn vs steel building vs frame built? Help me think before I drop 40k on an overpriced shed!
This will be the one time I can get away with this. Buying Momma a new house in the country and she said I could build any barn I want!
Everyone I know who has them, no matter the size, says "it ain't big enough".
Plumbed for water inside and out, lots of outlets, 220v? Floor drains and exhaust fan to keep air moving, heat?
My old shop is 30X40 but it's a frame building. Full bathroom and natural gas forced air shop furnace. Have a 200 amp service in the building. Built it in 1987 for $8000. That included the dirt work and concrete.
