Steel Building FAQs in Jacksonville, AR
A steel building is a big purchase, and you shouldn't need a construction background to make a good decision. Here's what Central Arkansas property owners ask Metal Dreams before they order.
Ordering
How do I get a quote?
Call (501) 258-5935 or fill out the quote form with what you're building and where. If you only have a rough idea and a spot in the yard, that's enough to start, the first estimate is free, with no deposit and no obligation.
Will I get a written estimate?
Yes. After we have determined the size, gauge and panel package that will be used for your site, we will send you that estimate in writing and not over the phone.
Can I see the building before I commit?
Yes. Our 3D software can produce an accurate picture of your building in your precise sizes and panel colors, you are approving a picture before steel is ordered!
If I'm over-buying, will you let me know?
Yes. We will be recommending the smaller, cheaper building if it can do what you need, rather than the larger, more expensive building.
The Building
What types of buildings do you offer?
Six: carports, RV covers, garages, shops, barndominiums and commercial buildings. Each is sized and specced to your site, rather than from a standard catalogue.
Can I customize the colors and layout?
Completely. The design options are yours to choose, including colors and textures for the panel and trim, where every door and window goes, the foot print and the eave height, and what kind of roof to use.
How well do steel buildings hold up in Arkansas weather?
Better than wood. Steel won't rot, warp, or attract termites, and panel coatings are warranted to not chalk, fade, chip or allow rust-through through the humidity, storms and all the other benefits that Arkansas weather offers.
Is insulation required?
It's dependent upon how you're utilizing the room. If it is going to be used for real time work or dwelling, then most people add insulation to it; if it will only be used for storage or parking, then they usually don't bother.
What is the foundation of the building?
We anchor on concrete, compacted gravel or bare ground, depending on which it is. If you do not have a slab at your site, we can pour a slab, Metal Dreams has 30 years of concrete work in Central Arkansas.
Delivery and Installation
Do you deliver and install across Arkansas?
Yes. We are Delta to Ozarks and have regular crew routes to Fayetteville, Springdale, Bentonville, Conway, Pine Bluff, Central Arkansas towns include Little Rock, North Little Rock, Sherwood, Cabot, Benton, Bryant, Maumelle and Alexander.
Where are you located, and when are you open?
We live at 7516 W Republican Rd Jacksonville, AR 72076. We're open Monday–Friday, 6 a.m.–6 p.m.
Who sets the anchors?
The same crew that specced your building. No part of the installation goes to a different sub contractor.
