Just wondering, I'm in West Tn., and giving some thought to building a smaller size metal shop for my boats, hunting stuff. Maybe 24x24, or a lil larger. Any of you guys has someone you would recommend? I see a bunch online, but would really talk to someone who had already went thru the process. Tks

My son went through Summertown Metals.
An amish man near Paris did the actual work.
He was pleased with the outcome.
I will say this, he built his about 8 months ago and just for kicks he looked the exact same building he has and it has ALMOST doubled in price in the last 8 months.
His was right at 18K when he got it and the same one is 30K now.

yea that's what I figure. how big was his shop?
His was a 30X40 with 12' walls, two roll up doors and one walk in door.
I've priced a couple of metal buildings, insulated, with one side covered for trailer, concrete under all.
40x40 -- $95k
40x60 -- $110k

WOW!!!!
Wow. I've got one already for 17, plus slab
Bunch of metal buildings going up around here from SM.
I used Summertown Metals for our shop. I was very happy with their work.
I have a contact. Did mine. 24 x 32 with 12 x 32 lean to. Right at 14k. Last spring. Pm your cell if you want his info. But be prepared to wait.

Summertown did a very poor job on my shop. I have seen some other work of theirs that was sub par also. I would go with quality metals next time.
Where? MS or CO?
MS.
Summertown will hook u up labor but beware amish or not there are some shoddy crews out there. 24x24.. u will out grow quickly. Ask me how i know.
If I recall correctly you are near Jackson. We built one right before the covid mess hit. Used a guy out of Bradford and are pleased. He partners with a guy from 3 way. PM me for details. We checked with Reeds metals and they were high and acted like they really did not want to do it.

Mine is 24x30 no soffit (no over hang) 1 roll up door, 1 walkin door, 2 inch vinyl back insulation throughout. 4 inch concrete 10 ft walls. Summertown metals 2 years ago $12,041.00
Don't know who gave you those prices but I'm getting one built in a couple weeks from Bluesteel in Henderson with signed paperwork for $28K. That's a 30×48×12 polebarn, insulated, with a 12×48 lean-to, 1 walk in door. A couple windows and a roll up door add another 2K. I thought was reasonable considering.
