What Is Included in a Metal Building Warranty?

You Need an Outdoor Building Solution You Can Depend On

Thinking about going with a wood-framed building? Think again. Steel construction offers many advantages over comparable stick builds. For starters, galvanized steel buildings withstand severe weather better, and are more moisture-resistant, pest-resistant, and fire-resistant.

In a word, a metal building for sale is really your best solution. Metal buildings can be put up much faster than conventional wood-framed construction. While you’ll likely have to wait many months to get your wooden building completed, metal buildings can often be manufactured, delivered, and installed in a matter of just weeks. In fact, once the fabricated materials arrive at your building site, most tubular steel structures can be installed in a matter of days! And if you’re wondering about metal building prices, there’s even more good news. A steel building from Metal Garage Central is typically much more cost-effective than a typical building made of wood.

How Long Can You Expect a Prefab Metal Building to Last?

That’s a great question, since structural longevity should matter to anyone who’s looking to erect an outdoor building for meeting specific storage needs or other building applications. Let’s take a closer at the life expectancy of the steel components used in metal building fabrication:

  • The steel framing is rated to last for 100+ years.
  • The galvanized steel roofing and side paneling are rated for longevity between 40 and 80 years.
  • The steel fasteners used for these buildings are rated to last as long as 60 years.

When it comes to breaking down the lifespan of the buildings themselves, it’s fair to say that a custom-fabricated metal building can easily last you a lifetime!

What Do Metal Building Warranties Cover?

Any product you buy is really only as good as the warranty that stands behind it. It’s one thing to say that a metal building is long-lasting. And as long as your steel structure is properly manufactured and installed, it should be! But it’s always better to buy from a metal building dealer that stands behind the quality of their product by offering clearly-communicated warranty coverage.

At Metal Garage Central, we believe in the quality of the materials we use and the workmanship we put in to make sure it’s perfect for you. Here’s some more information about the warranties we provide for our custom-built steel structures:

  • 20-year rust-through warranty

    We offer a 20-year warranty against rust for both our 12-gauge and 14-gauge steel tube framing. What that means for you is that if your structure should ever rust through to the point of weakness during the first 20 years of ownership, we’ll replace any and all failed parts at no charge.

    • 40-year panel warranty for 26-gauge steel panels

    We provide a robust 40-year warranty against chipping or cracking for our premium 26-gauge steel paneling. Please note that this warranty doesn’t include potential color fading over time, but also know that metal paneling holds its colors much longer than other comparable materials. If any chipping or cracking should occur during the warranty period, we’ll be glad to replace it at no extra charge to you.

    • 10-year panel warranty for 29-gauge steel panels

    We also offer a 10-year warranty against chipping or cracking for our 29-gauge steel paneling.

    • 30-day workmanship warranty

    If any issues should arise related to the manufacturing or installation of your building, just send us pictures and we’ll be happy to review for any faults on our end during the first 30 days after your building install.
