As of May 10th, 2021, we are booked out 4-6 months, but factors such as location, building size, and permit acquisition can all affect how quickly we can start construction. As for the actual building process, the time can range from days to months, depending on the aforementioned factors.
At Superior Buildings, we offer complete excavation and site prep. If you decide to do your own site prep, it is necessary that the building pad be approx. 5 ft. larger than the building on all sides. (i.e. a 30×40 barn should have a 40×50 building pad.)
Your building site should be within 6” of level. If your pad is more than 12” off grade, you may incur extra costs. However, as long as you are willing to pay the extra costs, we can work with pads that are severely out of grade.
