Im in the process of buying a new house. I want to put a metal building off the back of the driveway to turn into a workshop. What companies around here sell and install them? Ive received quotes from Mallett Buildings over in Lake Charles. They do everything from the concrete on up.

Im looking to get a 30'x30' to 30'x50'.

Any recommendations?

Apples to apples, my metal building came in from Reed's metals at a FRACTION of the cost of the Mueller building. And, it is the "exact" same building. They also have preferred erectors that come in a couple grand lower than local installers recommended by Mueller.

I dealt with Joe Lea at Reed's Metals in Brookhaven, MS. I got my building, 2 roll up doors, 2 entry doors and 4 window bays delivered and erected for the cost of just the building from Mueller.

You should call both for a quote on the same building and let us know how it turns out.

Why no Mallet in BR area? I'm currently researching the same thing. I do understand the Mallet construction process uses wood posts, which some people don't like.

Mallet came in way above what I paid for my Reed's metals building too. It was kind of surprising.

I haven't eliminated Mallett, i have a quote from them for what i want.

Im waiting on a few other quotes now.

The concrete is going to cost more than the building.
