The Benefits of Future Steel Buildings

Future Buildings launched in the 1980s, creating Quonset huts for Canadian farmers, fishermen, loggers, and miners. That is when they developed their philosophy of understanding the customers' needs, which is how the company produced the right structures at the right price.

That core tenet remains with the manufacturer today, helping Future grow into one of North America's leading steel building manufacturers.

They also have an in-house team that includes skilled engineers and a professional customer service team that collaborate with the production team to ensure customers get the highest quality prefabricated steel buildings.

Future Buildings Reviews

User reviews of Future Buildings are heavily mixed. Some customers praised the company's responsive customer service team, prompt support, and timely delivery. They also liked that their representative kept them informed throughout the process and that delivery included all of components as promised (one of the most common complaints with steel buildings is that deliveries are not complete).

Customers who were unsatisfied with their Future Buildings experience complained that the gauge of steel provided did not match recommendations on the engineering drawings, which they believed caused the roof to leak. In addition, although the leak occurred within the warranty time, the manufacturer did not honor the warranty.

Other complaints focus on difficulties reaching anyone in the company when there's a problem or question once the sale is made, particularly when there are questions about plans and local building codes.
