If you are interested in adding a metal building to your property, you will need to find a metal building contractor you can count on. Unfortunately, not all metal building contractors are equally experienced or honest, so you will need to research and vet each candidate before you make your decision.
Our team at Z Squared, LLC has extensive experience in this industry, and we have put together a list of a few red flags to look out for when hiring metal building contractors:
- No address – When looking at the website of a metal building contractor, check the contact information for the company phone number and address. If you can’t find this information, something isn’t right. A legitimate business will always make it as easy as possible to contact them. Our team’s site clearly lists our contact information because we want your business.
- Suspicious pitch – Another red flag to look out for when searching for metal building contractors is fishy sales pitches. Be particularly wary about this if a steel company reaches out to you first. If the company tries to spin you a story about another client who cancelled their order or tries to pressure you into acting quickly to “lock in” a low price, they are not a business you want to be dealing with. Our contractors will never try to pressure you with aggressive tactics. Instead, we’ll go over our services to help you decide if we are right for you.
- Negative reviews – When researching metal building contractors, you should also do some online searching to check out the company’s reviews. If you find a high percentage of negative reviews, you should reconsider hiring that contractor.
