Our new building in Brighton

In April 10, 2018 we were shopping around for a building (shop / storage) in Brighton, ON and we ended up calling Future Buildings to see what they had available. We were fortunate to speak with Ross Lancaster. It took him less than 15 minutes to understand what we were looking for by listening actively and probing further with the right questions. Once we identified the size of the building, he offered us a significant discount. Ross's deep knowledge about the product and solutions were key points for our decision. We felt like Ross was more concerned about us getting the right solution rather than focusing on just closing the sale. His level of expertise inspires confidence and made us feel that we are / were with the right company that would walk us through every step until completion of our project from beginning to the end.
Ross even sent us 2 different certified sets of drawings (including concrete) to accommodate our needs and budget at no cost. He also made several prompt follow ups to make sure that all our questions and concerns were covered.
The whole experience with Future Buildings was seamless, pleasant and affordable.
I truly recommend Future Buildings to anyone who is seeking for he right solution at a reasonable cost !!!

Metal storage building/garage

I dealt with Mike and he made buying a building very easy. He covered in detail what I would need and how easily it would be to put up by myself. No need to hire a company to construct it. He stayed in contact with me and is available for any questions I may have

Building size

Building itself is good, however installation plans did not have detail needed to put building on wood platform. Materials lacked to do install on woof platform. I indicated the size of the platform and the building was larger than platform. We had to extend the platform and shrink the building footprint to make it fit. Building caused water to leak at the joint with the wood platform. We are having a struggle to get it sealed. While this building would be good on a concrete base it does not work on a wood platform as was indicated to the salesman. If we were aware of the issues we are having I would have NOT purchased the building but we would have gone with our original plan of a stick built structure.

Thank you for your feedback. Our engineered buildings are certified for the local wind, snow & seismic loads at the intended site location and warrantied for 30 years when installed according to our design. They certainly require a more substantial base than a wooden platform as would have been indicated on your stamped engineered drawings, as well as detailed on our website and all print media. Please contact me directly to further discuss, as I have concerns that the building as erected may not be structurally sound.

Purchase of 20'X26' Metal Garage

I viewed an advertisement for a Future Building online. The next day Anthony Curtajar and we discussed multiple options for my need for addition Garage space at my summer cottage. I told him I could build a wooden structure for $7000 and he said why would you ever use wood when you could build your Garage with METAL with a 30 Year Warrantee. Anthony was always available when I called and asked him Questions. He was very knowledgeable and what ever he couldn't answer he was sure to ask the Factory or Engineering to get me answers. Delivery went flawlessly.

Steel Shed

While this whole project seemed overwhelming at first, I am very satisfied with the support received from all departments. Once I had a good work crew together we have managed to erect 6 out of 10 arches (as of this writing). It has all gone together just as stated in the instruction manual. We first assembled all but the sidewall, then using a fork lift to raise the assembled arch it went together quit readily, using a tapered spike to line up the holes.
I have to build my own front, and one thought is that it would be nice to have some suggestion as to how to do this, eg. what have others done, especially regarding framework.
