The Chapel Hill area has no shortage of metal building kit companies and unlicensed installers advertising cheap prices. But there's a critical difference between buying a kit and hiring a licensed general contractor:
Kit companies sell you materials and leave you to figure out permits, foundation, and installation on your own. If something goes wrong, you're on your own. Carolina Metal Structures is a licensed NC General Contractor who handles everything from the first phone call to the final inspection. We pull permits, coordinate foundations, and professionally install your building with a 2-year workmanship warranty.
Your building is an investment in your property. Protect that investment by working with a contractor who is licensed (#108035), insured, and accountable to North Carolina's licensing board.
