Metal buildings cost less and are faster to construct than conventional buildings. They’re also durable and require very little maintenance. Design options are available for creating an attractive building that promotes a quality image for the owner.
The cost depends on size and options, but the total expense is typically 20-30% less than conventional construction. Savings come from lower cost materials and less labor required.
Based on the type of building, permit/inspection process, and level of finish-out, the time to complete ranges from 90 to 180 days. The time to complete is about 2/3, or 1/3 less, than conventional construction.
The metal building panels are guaranteed for 25 years. Ceco Building Systems has a reputation for quality and durability.
Yes, some metal buildings are more energy efficient than others. Choice of material, such as a ‘cool roof’ that reflects heat back into the sky, and insulated panels make the biggest difference.

No! You have options for type and color of panel. Other options include building configurations such as hip/valley roofs, skewed walls, hexagonal or octagonal shapes and architectural finishes such as masonry, EIFS, and glass.
The foundation is a concrete slab, and Cal Valley Contractors pours the foundation as part of our turn-key service. The foundation is very important to the long life of a metal building, so an understanding of the weight loads is critical for a trouble-free experience.
One of the choices is to insulate or not insulate, based on the building purpose. Metal panels are also available in a variety of thickness and color options. (Color choice may affect energy use.)
Metal buildings naturally resist dirt and wash off with applied water or rain. We recommend an annual maintenance inspection.
Many feature choices for Ceco Metal Buildings qualify for LEED credits, and save energy. Examples include: choice of roof slope, cool roof colors, and light-transmitting panels. Also, the roof and wall panels contain 30-50% or more recycled material.
