Hear From Our Satisfied Customers
Overall great process. This was the first building I commissioned to be built. Bo was very helpful and didn’t push me into something I didn’t need or want. The process was very transparent, I knew exactly what I was paying for. After making a down payment, the Essex metal building team worked with me on the build date as well.
In terms of the actual build, the team showed up promptly at 7:00 am on a Friday and finished that evening.
I was able to supply an electrical resource for their tools and charging, which allowed for a more quiet install (no loud generator).
I’m very happy with my final product.
We wanted a carport for some time to cover our food trailer & camper. After talking to several businesses & getting quotes, we decided on Sam with Essex. He had the best prices & tried to do his best to design what we wanted for the lowest price. The guys that installed it are great, they worked their tails off & it looks fantastic! Thanks guys, really appreciate it!
I finally have my dream barn thanks to Bo and crew! Bo worked with me for several months trying to help me figure out exactly what I wanted. He kept his patience and was so kind during the entire project even though I’m sure I made him crazy with all my changes and new ideas. I’m so grateful and blessed to have found this company to build my barn.
