Why is a cheaper steel building not the right decision?

Most of clients only purchase a steel building once. Thus, it's crucial to trust the company you go with and understand the purchase and fulfilment process. At CCAT Steel structure, our client satisfaction is our primary measure of success, and our process is transparent to our clients. We are committed to every detail of your project. Many companies cut costs by outsourcing their engineering overseas, and fabrication to the lowest bidder. You may have an initial cheaper cost, but those costs will add on later in escalated construction costs, when the building doesn't erect properly. Examples of common issues include, welding needed for custom fabrication, missing or misaligned parts, and delays in shipment, which will all increase your total costs.
